AGENCY: Department of Defense.

ACTION: Renewal of Federal Advisory Committee.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to 
announce that it is amending the charter for the Air University Board 
of Visitors (``the Board'').

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jim Freeman, Advisory Committee 
Management Officer for the Department of Defense, 703-692-5952.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Board's charter is being renewed in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 
U.S.C., Appendix, as amended) and 41 CFR 102-3.50(d). The Board's 
charter and contact information for the Board's Designated Federal 
Officer (DFO) can be found at http://www.facadatabase.gov/.
    The Board provides the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy 
Secretary of Defense, through the Secretary of the Air Force, 
independent advice and recommendations on educational, doctrinal, and 
research policies and activities of the Air University.
    The Board is comprised of no more than 15 members who are eminent 
authorities in the fields of air power, defense, management, 
leadership, and academia. All members of the Board are appointed to 
provide advice on behalf of the Government on the basis of their best 
judgment without representing any particular point of view and in a 
manner that is free from conflict of interest. Except for reimbursement 
of official Board-related travel and per diem, Board members serve 
without compensation.
    The DoD, when necessary and consistent with the Board's mission and 
DoD policies and procedures, may establish subcommittees, task forces, 
or working groups to support the Board. Currently, the Secretary of the 
Air Force has approved one permanent subcommittee to the Board, the Air 
Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) Subcommittee. The AFIT 
Subcommittee is composed of no more than 15 members. The primary focus 
of the Subcommittee is to provide advice and recommendations to the 
Board concerning Department of the Air Force engineering and technology 
graduate programs.
    The public or interested organizations may submit written 
statements to Board membership about the Board's mission and functions. 
Written statements may be submitted at any time or in response to the 
stated agenda of planned meeting of the Board. All written statements 
shall be submitted to the DFO for the Board, and this individual will 
ensure that the written statements are provided to the membership for 
their consideration.
