SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    As required by Section 1121 of the Fixing America's Surface 
Transportation (FAST) Act, the Secretary shall, pursuant to a 
negotiated rulemaking process, develop a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 
(NPRM) that contains the regulations required to carry the TTSGP. 
Section 1121 also requires that in establishing this committee, the 
Secretary will (1) apply the procedures of negotiated rulemaking under 
subchapter III of chapter 5 of title 5 (the Negotiated Rulemaking Act) 
in a manner that reflects the unique government-to-government 
relationship between the Indian tribes and the United States and (2) 
select the tribal representatives for the committee from among elected 
officials of tribal governments (or their designated employees with 
authority to act on their behalf), acting in their official capacities.
    On July 27, 2016, at 81 FR 49193, FHWA published its list of the 
TTSGP Negotiated Rulemaking Committee. Since multiple submissions were 
not received from Tribes within the Bureau of Indian Affairs' Midwest 
or Rocky Mountain Regions, an alternate for those regions were not 
originally named. Since that time through the work of the primary 
committee members and others, additional submittals have been 
submitted. As a result of this effort, the following have been named as 
Alternate Tribal Representatives:
     MIDWEST REGION--Dean Branchaud, Executive Director of 
Tribal Engineering, Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians, Red Lake, MN.
     ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION--Connie Thompson, Transportation 
Planner, Fort Peck Assiniboine & Sioux Tribes, Poplar, MT.

Additional representatives or changes in the status of existing 
representatives may be forthcoming in future Federal Register Notices.
