SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ASB is being renewed in accordance with
chapter 10 of title 5, United States Code (U.S.C.) (commonly known as

The ASB provides the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy Secretary
of Defense (``the DoD Appointing Authority''), through the Secretary of
the Army, independent advice and recommendations related to the
Department of the Army's scientific, technical, manufacturing,
acquisition, logistics, and business management functions. The ASB
shall be composed of no more than 20 members who are eminent
authorities in one or more of the following disciplines and fields:
science; technology; manufacturing; acquisition; logistics; business
management functions natural (e.g., biology, ecology), social (e.g.,
anthropology, community planning), and related sciences; and other
matters of special interest to the DoD Appointing Authority or the
Secretary of the Army.
Individual members are appointed according to DoD policy and
procedures, and serve a term of service of one-to-four years with
annual renewals. One member will be appointed as Chair of the ASB. No
member, unless approved according to DoD policy and procedures, may
serve more than two consecutive terms of service on the ASB, or serve
on more than two DoD Federal advisory committees at one time.
ASB members who are not full-time or permanent part-time Federal
civilian officers or employees, or active-duty members of the Uniformed

All ASB members are appointed to provide advice based on their best
judgment without representing any particular point of view and in a
manner that is free from conflict of interest. Except for reimbursement
of official ASB-related travel and per diem, members serve without
compensation.
The public or interested organizations may submit written
statements about the ASB's mission and functions. Written statements
may be submitted at any time or in response to the stated agenda of
planned meeting of the ASB. All written statements shall be submitted
