SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Science Advisory Board (SAB) was 
established by a Decision Memorandum dated September 25, 1997, and is 
the only Federal Advisory Committee with responsibility to advise the 
Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere on strategies for 
research, education, and application of science to operations and 
information services. SAB activities and advice provide necessary input 
to ensure that National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) 
science programs are of the highest quality and provide optimal support 
to resource management.

    Date and Time: Monday, January 31 from 10-11 a.m. Eastern Time.

SSMC 3, Room 11836, 1315 East-West Highway, Silver Spring, Md. with a 
5-minute public comment period from 10:55-11 a.m. The SAB expects that 
public statements presented at its meetings will not be repetitive of 
previously submitted verbal or written statements. In general, each 
individual or group making a verbal presentation will be limited to a 
total time of one minute. Written comments should be received in the 
SAB Executive Director's Office by January 28, 2011 to provide 
sufficient time for SAB review. Written comments received by the SAB 
Executive Director after January 28, 2011, will be distributed to the 
SAB, but may not be reviewed prior to the meeting date.

    1. Revised proposal from the Working Group Subcommittee on
