SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After consultation with the General Services
Administration, the Commission intends to re-establish the charter,
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 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 Chair 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, or virtually, at the discretion
of the Commission, approximately three (3) times a year. The first
meeting date and agenda topics will be described in a Public Notice
issued and published in 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.
All meetings of the Committee, including those of subcommittees, will
be fully accessible to individuals with disabilities.
Federal Communications Commission.
Michael Scott,
Deputy Chief, Disability Rights Office, Consumer and Governmental
Affairs Bureau.
