Advisory Committee Act Database at http://facadatabase.gov/. Written 
statements that do not pertain to the scheduled meeting of the Panel

statements and provide copies to all the committee members.

afforded the opportunity to register to address the Panel. The Panel's 
DFO will have a ``Sign-Up Roster'' available at the Panel meeting for 
registration on a first-come, first-serve basis. Those wishing to 
address the Panel will be given no more than 5 minutes to present their 
comments, and at the end of the 1-hour time period, no further public

comments in writing; however, they must understand that their written 
comments may not be reviewed prior to the Panel's deliberation. To 
ensure timeliness of comments for the official record, the Panel 
encourages that individuals and interested groups consider submitting 
written statements instead of addressing the Panel.
