SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Environmental Management is accepting nominations through May 13, 2011, to fill vacancies on its Environmental Management Advisory Board (EMAB or Board). Applicants with expertise in project management, acquisition management, human capital management, environmental management and engineering, or other related fields are preferred; this expertise may be drawn from service in the private sector, academia, research institutions, professional organizations, or local and state governments. The Board seeks to have a balanced membership so that a diversity of perspectives is represented on the issues that come before it. This membership balance is not static, however, and may change depending on the work of the committee.

EMAB provides advice to the Assistant Secretary for the Office of Environmental Management on a broad range of programmatic issues, including project management and oversight, cost/benefit analyses, program performance, human capital development, and contracts and acquisition strategies. The Board is comprised of up to 15 members who are appointed by the Secretary of Energy as special Government employees or as representatives of entities including, among others, research facilities, academic institutions, regulatory entities, and stakeholder organizations, should the Board's tasks require such representation.

EMAB meets the criteria for, and is subject to the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Title 5, Appendix of the United States Code. Members are selected in accordance with FACA requirements and serve on an uncompensated, volunteer basis. Members, however, may be reimbursed in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulations for per diem and travel expenses incurred while attending Board meetings.

Any interested person or organization may nominate qualified individuals for membership. Self-nominations are also welcome. Nominations must include a resume and short biography describing the educational and professional qualifications of the nominee and the nominee's current occupation, position, address and daytime telephone number. Nominations can be sent by U.S. Mail or electronically to Ms. Kristen G. Ellis, Designated Federal Officer, at the address above.
