SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After consultation with the General Services
Administration, the Commission intends to renew the charter on or
before December 13, 2024, providing the Committee with authorization to
operate for two years. The purpose of the Committee is to make
recommendations to the Commission on the full range of disability
access topics specified by the Commission and to facilitate the
participation of consumers with disabilities in proceedings before the
Commission. In addition, this Committee is intended to provide an
effective means for stakeholders with interests in this area, including
consumers with disabilities, to exchange ideas, which will in turn
enhance the Commission's ability to effectively address disability
access issues.
Advisory Committee
The Committee will be organized under, and will operate in
accordance with, the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA) (5 U.S.C. ch. 10). The Committee will be solely advisory in
nature. Consistent with FACA and its requirements, each meeting of the
Committee will be open to the public unless otherwise noticed. A notice
of each meeting will be published in the Federal Register at least
fifteen (15) days in advance of the meeting. Records will be maintained
of each meeting and made available for public inspection. All
activities of the Committee will be conducted in an open, transparent,
and accessible manner. The Committee shall terminate two (2) years from
the filing date of its charter, or earlier upon the completion of its
work as determined by the Chairwoman of the FCC, unless its charter is
renewed prior to the termination date.
During the Committee's next term, it is anticipated that the
Committee will meet in Washington, DC and/or virtually via video
conference, at the discretion of the Commission, approximately three
(3) times a year, with additional meetings scheduled as needed. The
first meeting date and agenda topics will be described in a Public
Notice issued and published in
[[Page 66109]]
the Federal Register at least fifteen (15) days prior to the first
meeting date.
In addition, as needed, subcommittees will be established to
facilitate the Committee's work between meetings of the full Committee.
Meetings of the Committee will be fully accessible to individuals with
disabilities.
Federal Communications Commission.

Chief, Disability Rights Office, Consumer and Governmental Affairs
Bureau.
