In accordance with section 3687 of Public Law 106-398, which was added by section 3141(a) of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2015, Executive Order 13699 (June 26, 2015), and the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act and its implementing regulations issued by the General Services Administration (GSA), the Advisory Board on Toxic Substances and Worker Health was established on July 2, 2015. A Charter and Membership Balance Plan were filed in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). The new provision added to EEOICPA by the NDAA specifies that the Director of the Advisory Board's staff must be a member of the Senior Executive Service (SES). This individual will also perform the duties of the Designated Federal Officer (DFO). The original Charter for the Advisory Board specified that the DFO would be the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) Comptroller, a member of the SES. OWCP now amends the Charter to specify that the DFO is a member of the SES from OWCP, but not the Program Director of the EEOICPA program. The amended Charter has been filed in accordance with FACA.

    The new provision added to EEOICPA by the NDAA specifies that the 
Director of the Advisory Board's staff must be a member of the Senior
