p.m. ET, Wednesday, September 19, 2018 deadline through Tuesday,

    In the 2009 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 to diverse views with open minds, 
discuss submitted public comments, and foster discussions where 
participants can comfortably offer opposing opinions.'' In keeping with 
this core value, the IACC and the NIMH Office of Autism Research 
Coordination (OARC) 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]. 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 5 days prior to the 
meeting.
    Special Accommodations: Individuals who 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 5 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

capacity and seats will be on a first come, first serve basis, with
