NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION

[Notice (01-059)]

 
NASA Advisory Committees; Renewal of NASA's Advisory Committee 
Charters

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Notice of Renewal of the Charters of NASA's Advisory 
Committees.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to sections 14(b)(1) and 9(c) of the Federal Advisory 
Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-463), and after consultation with the 
Committee Management Secretariat, General Services Administration, the 
Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has 
determined that a renewal of seven Agency-established advisory 
committees is in the public interest in connection with the performance 
of duties imposed upon NASA by law. The structure and duties of these 
committees are unchanged. However, the Life and Microgravity Sciences 
and Applications Advisory Committee has been renamed to the Biological 
and Physical Research Advisory Committee. This change is consistent 
with the renaming of the Office of Life and Microgravity Sciences and 
Applications to the Office of Biological and Physical Research. The 
Aero-space Technology Advisory Committee has been renamed the Aerospace 
Technology Advisory Committee.
    The seven advisory committees are:
     NASA Advisory Council
     Aerospace Technology Advisory Council
     Biological and Physical Research Advisory Committee
     Earth System Science and Applications Advisory Committee
     Minority Business Resources Advisory Committee
     Space Science Advisory Committee
     Technology and Commercialization Advisory Committee

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Kathy Dakon, Assistant Advisory 
Committee Management Officer, Mail Code Z, National Aeronautics and 
Space Administration, Washington DC 20546, (202) 358-0732.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Information regarding the NASA Advisory 
Council and its committees is available on the world wide web at:

    Dated: May 3, 2001.

Advisory Committee Management Officer, National Aeronautics and Space 
Administration.
