SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 19, 2015, the U.S. Department of 
the Interior (DOI) published a notice inviting nominations for the 
Advisory Committee on Climate Change and Natural Resource Science 
(Committee), for members whose initial terms expired in May 2016. The 
Committee provides advice on matters and actions relating to the 
establishment and operations of the U.S. Geological Survey National 
Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center and the DOI Climate Science 
Centers. See: https://nccwsc.usgs.gov/acccnrs for more information.
    Contacts with potential nominees from state government have 
indicated that additional time to secure management approval of their 
nomination is required. Because state governments are a key partner, 
the Department is reopening the nomination period, for state government 
nominees only.
    Nominations should include a resume that describes the nominee's 
qualifications in enough detail to enable us to make an informed 
decision regarding meeting the membership requirements of the Committee 
and to contact a potential member.
    The Committee is composed of approximately 25 members from the 
Federal Government, and the following interests: (1) State and local 
governments, including state membership entities; (2) Non-governmental 
organizations, including those whose primary mission is professional 
and scientific and those whose primary mission is conservation and 
related scientific and advocacy activities; (3) American Indian tribes 
and other Native American entities; (4) Academia; (5) Landowners, 
businesses, and organizations representing landowners or businesses.
    In addition, the Committee may include scientific experts, and will 
include rotating representation from one or more of the institutions 
that host the DOI Climate Science Centers.
    The Committee will meet approximately 2-4 times annually, and at 
such times as designated by the DFO. The Secretary of the Interior will 
appoint members to the Committee. Members appointed as special 
Government employees are required to file on an annual basis a 
confidential financial disclosure report.
    No individual who is currently registered as a Federal lobbyist is 
eligible to serve as a member of the Committee.

Robin O'Malley,
Designated Federal Officer, ACCCNRS.
