SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The inaugural Physical Activity Guidelines 
for Americans (PAG), issued in 2008, represents the first comprehensive 
guidelines on physical activity issued by the federal government. The 
PAG serves as the benchmark and primary, authoritative voice of the 
federal government for providing science-based guidance on physical 
activity, fitness, and health for Americans. Five years after the first 
edition was released, ODPHP, in collaboration with the Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Institutes of Health 
(NIH), and the President's Council on Fitness, Sports, and Nutrition 
(PCFSN) led development of the PAG Midcourse Report: Strategies to 
Increase Physical Activity Among Youth. The second edition of the PAG 
will build upon the first edition and provide a foundation for federal 
recommendations and education for physical activity programs for 
Americans, including those at risk for chronic disease.
    Appointed Committee Members: The Secretary of HHS appointed 17 
individuals to serve as members of the 2018 PAGAC in June 2016. 
Information on Committee membership is available at www.health.gov/paguidelines/second-edition/committee/.
    Committee's Task: The work of the 2018 PAGAC will be time-limited 
and solely advisory in nature. The Committee will develop 
recommendations based on the preponderance of current scientific and 
medical knowledge using a systematic review approach. The Committee 
will examine the current PAG, take into consideration new scientific 
evidence and current resource documents, and develop a scientific 
report to the Secretary of HHS that outlines its science-based advice 
and recommendations for development of the second edition of the PAG. 
The Committee will hold approximately five public meetings to review 
and discuss recommendations. The first meeting was held in July 2016, 
and it is anticipated that future meetings will be held in the third 
weeks of March 2017, July 2017, and October 2017. Meeting dates, times, 
locations, and other relevant information will be announced at least 15 
days in advance of each meeting via Federal Register notice. As 
stipulated in the charter, the Committee will be terminated after 
delivery of its report to the Secretary of HHS or two years from the 
date the charter was filed, whichever comes first.
    Purpose of the Meeting: In accordance with FACA and to promote 
transparency of the process, deliberations of the Committee will occur 
in a public forum. At this meeting, the Committee will continue its 
deliberations from the last public meeting.
    Meeting Agenda: The meeting agenda will include (a) opportunity for 
the public to give oral testimony, (b) review of Committee work since 
the last public meeting, and (c) plans for future Committee work.
