per calendar year (2018). Only one representative of an organization 
will be allowed to present oral comments in any given meeting; other

oral comment session is full, individuals who could not be accommodated 
are welcome to provide written comments instead. Comments to be read or

depending on the number of comments, but a longer version may be

order to allow other comments and presentations to proceed on schedule.
    Any interested person may submit written public comments to the 
IACC prior to the meeting by emailing the comments to

the name, address, telephone number, and when applicable, the business 
or professional affiliation of the interested person. National

to the IACC prior to the meeting for the IACC's consideration. Any 
written comments received after the 5:00 p.m. ET, October 9, 2018 
deadline through October 15,

[[Page 38714]]

2018 will be provided to the IACC either before or after the meeting, 
depending on the volume of comments received and the time required to 
process them in accordance with privacy regulations and other 
applicable Federal policies. All written public comments and oral 
public comment statements received by the deadlines for both oral and 
written public comments will be provided to the IACC for their 
consideration and will become part of the public record. Attachments of 
copyrighted publications are not permitted, but web links or citations 
for any copyrighted works cited may be provided.
    In the 2016-2017 IACC Strategic Plan, the IACC listed the ``Spirit 
of Collaboration'' as one of its core values, stating that, ``We will 
treat others with respect, listen with open minds to the diverse views 
of people on the autism spectrum and their families, thoughtfully 
consider community input, and foster discussions where participants can 
comfortably where participants can comfortably offer opposing 
opinions.'' In keeping with this core value, the IACC and the NIMH 
Office of Autism Research Coordination ask that members of the public 
who provide public comments or participate in meetings of the IACC also 
seek to treat others with respect and consideration in their 
communications and actions, even when discussing issues of genuine 
concern or disagreement.
    Remote Access: The meeting will be open to the public through a 
conference call phone number and webcast live on the internet. Members 
of the public who participate using the conference call phone number 
will be able to listen to the meeting but will not be heard. If you 
experience any technical problems with the webcast or conference call, 
please send an e- mail to [email protected] or call 240-
668-0302.
    Individuals wishing to participate in person or by using these 
electronic services and who need special assistance, such as captioning 
of the conference call or other reasonable accommodations, should 
submit a request to the Contact Person listed on this notice at least 
five days prior to the meeting.
    Security: Visitors will be asked to show one form of identification 
(for example, a government-issued photo ID, driver's license, or 
passport) and to state the purpose of their visit. Also, as a part of 
security procedures, attendees should be prepared to present a photo ID 
at the meeting registration desk during the check-in process. Pre-
registration is recommended. Seating will be limited to the room 
capacity and seats will be on a first come, first served basis, with 
expedited check-in for those who are pre-registered.
    Meeting schedule subject to change. Information about the IACC is 
available on the website: http://www.iacc.hhs.gov.
