Rhode Island Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20005.

Washington, DC 20005; Phone number: 202-232-7000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: National Park Service, Commercial 
Services Program, 1201 Eye Street, NW., Washington, DC 20005,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Board was established by Title IV, 
Section 409 of the National Parks Omnibus Management Act of 1998, 
November 13, 1998 (Pub. L. 105-391). The purpose of the Board is to 
advise the Secretary and the National Park Service on matters relating 
to management of concessions in the National Park System. The members 
of the Advisory Board are: Dr. James J. Eyster, Ms. Ramona Sakiestewa, 
Mr. Richard Linford, and Mr. Phil Voorhees.
    Topics that will be presented during the meeting include:
    <bullet> Concession Contracting Status Update.
    <bullet> Regional Reports.
    <bullet> Standards, Evaluations, and Rate Approval Project Update.
    <bullet> Update on Professionalization of Commercial Services 
Program--Human Capital Strategy.
    <bullet> New business.

The meeting will be open to the public, however, facilities and space 
for accommodating members of the public are limited, and persons will 
be accommodated on a first-come-first-served basis. Efforts have been 
made locally to ensure that the interested public is aware of the 
meeting dates. An unprecedented weather-related 4-day Federal 
Government closure has resulted in the publication of this notice less 
than 15 days before the date of the meeting. Rescheduling the meeting 
would create an unnecessary burden for members of the public who have 
already arranged their schedules around that date.

Assistance to Individuals With Disabilities at the Public Meeting

    The meeting site is accessible to individuals with disabilities. If 
you plan to attend and will require an auxiliary aid or service to 
participate in the meeting (e.g., interpreting service, assistive 
listening device, or materials in an alternate format), notify the 
contact person listed in this notice at least 2 weeks before the 
scheduled meeting date. Attempts will be made to meet any request(s) we 
receive after that date, however, we may not be able to make the 
requested auxiliary aid or service available because of insufficient 
time to arrange for it.
    Anyone may file with the Board a written statement concerning 
matters to be discussed. The Board may also permit attendees to address 
the Board, but may restrict the length of the presentations, as 
necessary to allow the Board to complete its agenda within the allotted 
time. Such requests should be made to the Director, National Park 
Service, Attention: Chief, Commercial Services Program, at least 7 days 
prior to the meeting. Draft minutes of the meeting will be available 
for public inspection approximately 6 weeks after the meeting, at the 
Commercial Services Program office located at 1201 Eye Street, NW., 
11th Floor, Washington, DC.

    Dated: February 19, 2010.
Daniel N. Wenk,
Deputy Director.
