SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On January 17, 2025, the U.S. Coast Guard published a request in the Federal Register (90 FR 5923) soliciting applications for persons interested in membership on the National Offshore Safety Advisory Committee to represent entities engaged in offshore oil exploration and production on the Outer Continental Shelf adjacent to Alaska. The U.S. Coast Guard is re-soliciting applications for this representative position.
The National Offshore Safety Advisory Committee is a Federal advisory committee. The Committee operates under the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. ch. 10 and 46 U.S.C. 15109.
The Committee was established on December 4, 2018, by section 601 of the Frank LoBiondo Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2018, Public Law 115-282, 132 Stat. 4192 and amended by section 8331 of the Elijah E. Cummings Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2020, Public Law 116 283, and is codified in 46 U.S.C. 15106.
The Committee will advise the Secretary of Homeland Security on matters relating to activities directly involved with, or in support of, the exploration of offshore mineral and energy resources, to the extent that such matters are within the jurisdiction of the U.S. Coast Guard.
The Committee is required to meet at least once a year in accordance with 46 U.S.C. 15109(a). We expect the Committee to meet at least twice a year, but it may meet more frequently. The meetings are generally held in cities that have high concentrations of maritime personnel and related marine industry businesses.
All members serve at their own expense and receive no salary or other compensation from the Federal Government.
Under the provisions in 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(6), if you are appointed as a member of the Committee, your membership term will expire on December 31 of the third full year after the effective date of your appointment. The Secretary may require an individual to have passed an appropriate security background examination before appointment to the Committee, 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(4).
In this re-solicitation for a Committee member, we will consider applications for one position representing entities engaged in offshore oil exploration and production on the Outer Continental Shelf adjacent to Alaska. The member who fills the position will be appointed to represent the interest as described above. As a representative, the member is expected to represent and speak on behalf of interests, views, or perspectives of a recognizable group of persons or class of stakeholders.
If you are appointed as a member of the Committee, you will be required to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement and a Gratuitous Services Agreement.
If you are interested in applying to become a member of the Committee, email your complete application to Justin.P.Goff@uscg.mil as provided in the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
The U.S. Coast Guard will not consider incomplete or late applications.
