SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Chemical Transportation Safety
Advisory Committee is a Federal advisory committee. The National
Chemical Transportation Safety Advisory Committee was established by
section 601 of the Frank LoBiondo Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2018
(Pub. L. 115-282, 132 Stat. 4192), and is codified in 46 U.S.C. 15101.
The Committee operates under the provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (5 U.S.C. ch. 10) and 46 U.S.C. 15109. The Committee
provides advice and recommendations to the Secretary of Homeland
Security on matters relating to the safe and secure marine
transportation of hazardous materials.
The Committee is required to meet at least once a year in
accordance with 46 U.S.C. 15109(a)(1). We expect the Committee to meet
at least twice a year, but it may meet more frequently. The meetings
are generally held in Washington, DC and Houston, Texas.
Under 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(6)(A), if you are appointed as a member of
the Committee, your membership term will expire on December 31st of the
third full year after the effective date of your appointment. In
accordance with 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(4), applicants for membership may be
required to pass an appropriate security background examination before
their appointment to the Committee.
All members serve at their own expense and receive no salary or
other compensation from the Federal Government. If you are appointed as
member of the Committee, you will be required to sign a Non-Disclosure
Agreement and a Gratuitous Services Agreement.
In this solicitation for Committee Members, we will consider
applications from members representing the following:
<bullet> Chemical manufacturing entities
<bullet> Entities related to marine handling or transportation of
chemicals
<bullet> Marine safety or security entities
<bullet> Marine environmental protection entities
The members who will fill the positions described above will be
appointed to represent the interest of their respective groups and
viewpoints and are not ``special Government employees,'' as defined in
18 U.S.C. 202(a).
In order for the Department to fully leverage broad-ranging
experience and education, the National Chemical Transportation Safety
Advisory Committee must be diverse with regard to professional and
technical expertise. The Department is committed to pursuing
opportunities, consistent with applicable law, to compose a committee
that reflects the diversity of the Nation's people.
If you are interested in applying to become a member of the
Committee, email your application to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#2267564a434c0c760c604743504662575141450c4f4b4e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="01447569606f2f552f436460736541747262662f6c686d">[email protected]</span></a> as provided
