SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background: The Secretary of Commerce established the REEEAC

The REEEAC was re-chartered on June 18, 2012, June 12, 2014, and June

advice from the private sector on the development and administration of 
programs and policies to enhance the export competitiveness of the U.S. 
renewable energy and energy efficiency industries.
    During the December 1st meeting of the REEEAC, committee members 
will hold the first meeting of its new charter term and discuss REEEAC 
operational structure, hear from Department of Commerce officials and 
interagency partners on major issues impacting the competitiveness of 
the U.S. renewable energy and energy efficiency industries, recommend 
the Sub-Committee structure, and select their recommendations for 
Committee Chair and Sub-Committee leadership.
