SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The charter NCC lapsed on November 20, 2021. 
The NCC was replaced by a National Advisory Committee on Coal (NACC) 
which was chartered on February 16, 2022. The charter for the NACC 
lapsed on February 16, 2024, without any members ever being appointed 
or any meetings ever being held.
    Committee members will be chosen to assure a well-balanced 
representation from all sections of the country, all segments of the 
coal industry including large and small companies, and coal consumers; 
coal transportation providers, technology suppliers, and organizations 
engaged in environmental remediation related to coal; coal mining and 
coal user host communities; and service providers and regional 
development experts. Membership and representation of all interests 
will be determined in accordance with the requirements of the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act and implementing regulations.
    The reestablishment of the Committee has been deemed essential to 
the Department of Energy's (DOE's) business and in the public interest 
in conjunction with the performance of duties imposed upon the DOE, by 
law and agreement.
