SUMMARY: This notice informs the public that the Global Positioning

working group meeting to discuss ICD-GPS-200 and IS-GPS-705. Changes to 
be discussed include:
    (1) PIRN-200C-008, which deletes all Letters of Exception except

UTC/GPS-time relationships, toa and toe.
    (2) Draft IS-GPS-200D and PPIRN-705-001, which describe the 
Improved Clock and Ephemeris (ICE) message on L2C and L5. The ICE 
message is the new GPS nav data that will replace the current clock and 
ephemeris data as indicated in section 30.3.2 of current ICD-GPS-200C.
    The meeting will also address those deferred comments from the 
previous ICWG review of IS-GPS-705.
