Deemed Export Advisory Committee; Notice To Solicit Meeting 
Speakers and Presentations

    The Deemed Export Advisory Committee (DEAC), which advises the 
Secretary of Commerce on deemed export licensing policy, will meet on 
May 2, 2007 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. The DEA is a Federal Advisory 
Committee that was established under the auspices of the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act, as amended, 5 U.S.C. app. 2. The meeting 
location will be Atlanta, GA, with exact details to be announced in a 
subsequent Federal Register Notice. At this time, the Department of 
Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), would like to solicit 
stakeholders from industry, academia and other backgrounds to address 
the DEAC members on May 2 in an open session on issues related to 
deemed exports and, in particular, their organizations' perspectives 
and concerns related to U.S. deemed export control policies. 
Stakeholders are those individuals or organizations who have some 
experience in or knowledge of export control regulations and policies, 
who must apply these rules in the course of normal business or whose 
operations are directly impacted by those export regulations and 
policies mandated by the U.S. government. BIS seeks to have an equal 
number of presenters from industry, academia, and other backgrounds. 
There may be up to three presenters from each group and speaking time 
may be limited to 10 minutes or less per speaker depending on the 
number of interested parties. Speakers may be selected on the basis of 
one or more of the following criteria (not in any order of importance): 
(1) Demonstrated experience in and knowledge of export control 
regulations; (2) demonstrated ability to provide DEAC members with 
relevant information related to deemed export policies and issues; (3) 
the degree to which the organization is impacted by the U.S. 
Government's export policies and regulations; and (4) industry area or 
academic type of institution represented. BIS reserves the right to 
limit the number of participants based on time considerations. For 
planning purposes, BIS requests that (1) that interested parties inform 
BIS of their commitment, via e-mail or telephone call, to address the 
DEAC no later than 5 p.m. EST April 11, 2007, as well as provide a 
brief outline of the topics to be discussed by this same deadline; and 
(2) that once interested parties receive confirmation of their 
participation at the meeting, they provide either an electronic or 
paper copy of any prepared remarks/presentations no later than 5 p.m. 
EST April 25, 2007. Interested parties may contact Ms. Yvette Springer 
at Yspringer@bis.doc.gov or (202) 482-2813. The purpose of this 
solicitation is only to accept speakers for the May 2, 2007 DEAC 
meeting. However, all members of the public may submit written comments 
to BIS at any time for the DEAC's consideration.

    Dated: March 1, 2007.
