10790 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 45 / Tuesday, March 9, 2010 / Notices 

may be submitted at any time. However, 

if individual comments pertain to a 

specific topic being discussed at a 

planned meeting, then these statements 

must be submitted no later than 5 

business days prior to the meeting in 

question. The Designated Federal 

Officer will review all submitted written 

statements and provide copies to all the 

committee members. 

Public Comments 

In addition to written statements, the 

Panel will set aside 1 hour for 

individuals or interested groups to 

address the Panel. To ensure 

consideration of their comments, 

individuals and interested groups 

should submit written statements as 

outlined in this notice; but if they still 

want to address the Panel, then they 

will be afforded the opportunity to 

register to address the Panel. The 

Panel’s Designated Federal Officer will 

have a ‘‘Sign-Up Roster’’ available at the 

Panel meeting, for registration on a firstcome, first-serve basis. Those wishing to 

address the Panel will be given no more 

than 5 minutes to present their 

comments, and at the end of the 1-hour 

time period no further public comments 

will be accepted. Anyone who signs up 

to address the Panel but is unable to do 

so due to the time limitation may 

submit their comments in writing; 

however, they must understand that 

their written comments may not be 

reviewed prior to the Panel’s 

deliberation. Accordingly, the Panel 

recommends that individuals and 

interested groups consider submitting 

written statements instead of addressing 

the Panel. 

Waiver 

Due to internal DoD difficulties, 

beyond the control of the Uniform 

Formulary Beneficiary Advisory Panel 

or its Designated Federal Officer, the 

Government was unable to process the 

Federal Register notice for the March 

25, 2010, meeting of the Uniform 

Formulary Beneficiary Advisory Panel 

as required by 41 CFR 102–3.150(a). 

Accordingly, the Committee 

Management Officer for the Department 

of Defense, pursuant to 41 CFR 102– 

3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar day 

notification requirement. 

Dated: March 3, 2010.
