[Public Notice: 9430]


Advisory Committee on International Economic Policy; Notice of 
Open Meeting

    The Advisory Committee on International Economic Policy (ACIEP) 
will meet from 2 until 5 p.m., on Wednesday, February 17, in 
Washington, DC at the State Department, 320 21st Street NW. in 
conference room 4477. The meeting will be hosted by the Assistant 
Secretary of State for Economic and Business Affairs, Charles H. Rivkin 
and Committee Chair Paul R. Charron. The ACIEP serves the U.S. 
government in a solely advisory capacity, and provides advice 
concerning topics in international economic policy. It is expected that 
the ACIEP subcommittees will provide updates on their work.
    This meeting is open to public participation, though seating is 
limited. Entry to the building is controlled. To obtain pre-clearance 
for entry, members of the public planning to attend should no later 
than Friday, February 12, provide their full name and professional 
affiliation to Alan Krill by email: [email protected]. Requests for 
reasonable accommodation should be made to Alan Krill before Friday, 
February 12. Requests made after that date will be considered, but 
might not be possible to fulfill.
    This announcement might appear in the Federal Register less than 15 
days prior to the meeting. The Department of State finds that there is 
an exceptional circumstance for such publication. Processing this 
Federal Register notice was delayed by a weather emergency in 
Washington, DC that closed the federal government on Friday, January 
22, and Monday and Tuesday, January 25 and 26; and curtailed operations 
on Wednesday, January 27. The Department is providing as much notice to 
the public as possible given the emergency.
    For additional information, contact Alan Krill, Office of Economic 
Policy Analysis and Public Diplomacy, Bureau of Economic and Business 
Affairs, at (202) 647-0812, or [email protected].

    Dated: January 28, 2016.
Alan Krill,
Designated Federal Official, U.S. Department of State.
