U.S. Coast Guard Stop 7501, 2703 Martin Luther King Jr Ave. SE., 
Washington, DC 20593-7501.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commercial Fishing Safety Advisory 
Committee is a federal advisory committee under the Federal Advisory 
Committee Act, title 5 United States Code Appendix. The Coast Guard 
chartered the Commercial Fishing Safety Advisory Committee to provide 
advice on issues related to the safety of commercial fishing industry 
vessels regulated under chapter 45 of title 46, U.S.C., which includes 
uninspected fish catching vessels, fish processing vessels, and fish 
tender vessels. (See 46 U.S.C. 4508.)
    The Commercial Fishing Safety Advisory Committee meets at least 
once a year. It may also meet for other extraordinary purposes. Its 
subcommittees or working groups may communicate throughout the year to 
prepare for meetings or develop proposals for the committee as a whole 
to address specific tasks.
    Each member serves for a term of three years. An individual may be 
appointed to a term as a member more than once, but not more than two 
terms consecutively. All members serve at their own expense and receive 
no salary from the Federal Government, although travel reimbursement 
and per diem may be provided for called meetings.
    The Coast Guard will consider applications for six (06) positions 
that expire or become vacant in May 2016 in the following categories:
    (a) Commercial Fishing Industry representatives (four positions);
    (b) General Public, (one position) particularly a person familiar 
with issues affecting fishing communities and families of fishermen; 
and
    (c) A Naval Architect and Marine Engineer representative of 
commercial fishing vessels (one position).
    If you are selected as a member from the general public, you will 
be appointed and serve as a Special Government Employee as defined in 
section 202(a) of title 18, United States Code. As a candidate for 
appointment as Special Government Employee, applicants are required to 
complete a Confidential Financial Disclosure Report (OGE Form 450). 
Coast Guard may not release the reports or the information in them to 
the public except under an order issued by a Federal court or as 
otherwise provided under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a). Applicants 
can obtain this form by going to the Web site of the Office of 
Government Ethics (www.oge.gov), or by contacting the individual listed 
in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. Applications for a member from the general 
public which are not accompanied by a completed OGE Form 450 will not 
be considered.
    Registered lobbyists are not eligible to serve on federal advisory 
committees in an individual capacity. See ``Revised Guidance on 
Appointment of Lobbyist to Federal Advisory Committees, Boards and 
Commission'' (79 CFR 47482, August 13, 2014). The position we list for 
a member from the general public would be someone appointed in their 
individual capacity and would be designated as a Special Government 
Employee as defined in 202(a), title 18, U.S.C. Registered lobbyists 
are lobbyists required to comply with provisions contained in the 
Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-65, as amended by title II 
of Pub. L. 110-81).
    The Department of Homeland Security does not discriminate in 
selection of Committee members on the basis of race, color, religion, 
sex, national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, gender 
identity, marital status, disability and genetic information, age, 
membership in an employee organization, or any other non-merit factor. 
The Department of Homeland Security strives to achieve a widely diverse 
candidate pool for all of its recruitment actions.
    If you are interested in applying to become a member of the 
Committee, send your cover letter and resume to Mr. Jack Kemerer, 
Commercial Fishing Safety Advisory Committee Alternate Designated 
Federal Officer, via one of the transmittal methods in the ADDRESSES 
section by the deadline in the DATES section. Indicate the position you

experience that qualify you for that position on the Commercial Fishing 
Safety Advisory Committee.
