established the NACMH. The NACMH is governed by the Federal Advisory 
Committee Act (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2), which sets forth standards for the 
formation and use of advisory committees.
    The NACMH consults with and makes recommendations to the Secretary 
and the HRSA Administrator, concerning the organization, operation, 
selection, and funding of migrant health centers and other entities 
under grants and contracts under section 330 of the PHS Act.
    The NACMH shall consist of fifteen members, including the Chair and 
Vice Chair. The Secretary selects all members of the NACMH. Twelve 
members are from governing boards of migrant health centers and other 
entities assisted under section 330 of the PHS Act. Of these twelve 
members, at least nine shall be chosen from among those members of such 
centers or grantees and who are familiar with the delivery of health 
care to migratory and seasonal agricultural workers. The remaining 
three members are individuals who are qualified by training and 
experience in the medical sciences or in the administration of health 
programs. Members shall be appointed for terms of 4 years. New members 
filling a vacancy that occurred prior to expiration of a term may serve 
only for the remainder of such term. Members may serve after the 
expiration of their terms until their successors have taken office, but 
no longer than 120 days.
    Compensation: Members who are not full-time federal employees shall 
be paid at the rate of $200 per day including travel time, plus per 
diem and travel expenses in accordance with Standard Government Travel 
Regulations.
    Specifically, HRSA is requesting nominations for:
     Board Member/Patient: A nominee must be a member or 
member-elect of a governing board of an organization receiving funding 
under section 330(g) of the PHS Act or of other entity assisted under 
section 330 of the PHS Act. A board member nominee must also be a 
patient of the entity that he/she represents. Additionally, a board 
member nominee must be familiar with the delivery of primary health 
care to migratory agricultural workers and seasonal agricultural 
workers and their families.
     Administrator/Provider Representative: A nominee must be 
qualified by training and experience in the medical sciences or in the 
administration of health programs.
    The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will consider 
nominations of all qualified individuals.
    A complete nomination package should include the following 
information for each nominee:
    (1) A NACMH Nomination form; (2) three reference letters; and (3) a 
biographical sketch of the nominee and a copy of his/her curriculum 
vitae. The nomination package must also state that the nominee is 
willing to serve as a member of the NACMH and appears to have no 
conflict of interest that would preclude membership. An ethics review 
is conducted for each selected nominee.
    HHS strives to ensure that the membership of HHS federal advisory 
committees is fairly balanced in terms of points of view represented 
and the committee's function. Every effort is made to ensure that the 
views of women, all ethnic and racial groups, and people with 
disabilities are represented on HHS federal advisory committees. The 
Department also encourages geographic diversity in the composition of 
the committee. The Department encourages nominations of qualified 
candidates from all groups and locations. Appointment to the NACMH 
shall be made without discrimination on the basis of age, race, 
ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and cultural, 
religious, or socioeconomic status.

Director, Division of the Executive Secretariat.
