Charter Renewal of Department of Defense Federal Advisory 
Committees

AGENCY: Department of Defense.

ACTION: Renewal of Federal Advisory Committee.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to 
announce that it is renewing the charter for the Department of Defense 
Wage Committee (``the Committee'').

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jim Freeman, Advisory Committee 
Management Officer for the Department of Defense, 703-692-5952.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Committee's charter is being renewed in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 
U.S.C., Appendix, as amended) and 41 CFR 102-3.50(a). The Committee's 
charter and contact information for the Committee's Designated Federal 
Officer (DFO) can be found at http://www.facadatabase.gov/. The 
Committee provides the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy Secretary of 
Defense, through the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and 
Readiness, independent advice and recommendations on all matters 
relating to the conduct of wage surveys and the establishment of wage 
schedules for all appropriated fund and non-appropriated fund wage 
areas of blue-collar employees within the Department of Defense.
    The Committee is composed of seven members--a chair and six 
additional members. The remaining six positions consist of two labor 
organization representatives and four members who are regular 
government employees (RGE) and are divided into two broad categories--
labor and management.

[[Page 76932]]

Each category has two voting members; in the case of management 
category, the two voting members will change depending upon which two 
DoD Components, as determined by the Chair, have the largest number of 
wage employees in the wage areas under consideration. Those individuals 
representing the labor organizations are selected by the labor 
organizations to provide the committee with the points of view of 
nongovernment entities or a recognizable group of persons that have 
interests in the subject matter under consideration by the Committee. 
Whereas, those individuals, to include the Chair, who represent the DoD 
Components, and are RGE members are appointed by the Secretary of 
Defense to exercise their own individual best judgement on behalf of 
the government. Except for reimbursement of official Committee-related 
travel and per diem, Committee members serve without compensation.
    The public or interested organizations may submit written 
statements to the Committee membership about the Committee's mission 
and functions. Written statements may be submitted at any time or in 
response to the stated agenda of planned meeting of the Committee. All 
written statements shall be submitted to the DFO for the Committee, and 
this individual will ensure that the written statements are provided to 
the membership for their consideration.

    Dated: November 1, 2016.
