SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 2010 

CAC was established in accordance with 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(Title 5, United States Code (U.S.C.), 

Appendix 2). The following provides 

information about the Committee, 

membership, and nomination process: 

Objectives and Duties 

1. The 2010 CAC considers the needs 

of the decennial census from the 

perspective of outside data users and 

other organizations having a substantial 

interest and expertise in the conduct 

and outcome of the decennial. The 

Committee will provide advice on how 

best the Census Bureau can effectively 

and efficiently accomplish its decennial 

goals and objectives. 

2. The 2010 CAC addresses policy, 

research, and technical issues related to 

the design and implementation of the 

2010 decennial census, including the 

American Community Survey. 

3. The Committee functions solely as 

an advisory body under the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act. 

Membership 

1. The Secretary of Commerce 

appoints the member organizations and 

designates the Chair and Vice-Chair of 

the Committee. 

2. The 2010 CAC consists of a Chair, 

Vice-Chair, and a designated 

representative from each member 

organization. The 2010 CAC is 

expanding from 20 to 30 member 

organizations. Member organizations 

represent data users, general 

governmental entities, technology-based 

organizations, and entities with 

expertise in the statutory and 

constitutional uses of census data, 

including redistricting. Membership 

includes ex-officio members 

representing U.S. Senate and House of 

Representatives’ Committees with 

census oversight responsibilities. A 

representative from the Census 

Advisory Committees on Race and 

Ethnic Populations also serves as exofficio member. Ex-officio members 

serve in a non-voting capacity. 

3. Committee members are selected in 

accordance with applicable Department 

of Commerce guidelines. The 

Committee’s composition should reflect 

a balance of viewpoints and 

perspectives, considering such factors as 

geography, diversity in the sectors 

represented (i.e., business and industry, 

academia, consumers, etc.), and the 

public-at-large. The size and the scope 

of the member organizations also are 

considered. 

4. Committee members should have 

relevant backgrounds and experience to 

significantly assist and/or contribute to 

the overall functions, tasks, and 

missions of the decennial census. The 

members should bring diverse 

perspectives and be able to provide 

advice on policy and technical issues 

affecting the goals of ongoing decennial 

programs, surveys, and initiatives. 

5. The Committee has the fewest 

number of members necessary to 

accomplish the objectives of the Charter. 

Committee membership will not 

duplicate other organizations, interests, 

or communities already represented on 

existing census advisory committees or 

census consultation groups (i.e., Census 

Information Centers or State Data 

Centers). 

6. Committee members report to the 

Director of the Census Bureau. 

Miscellaneous 

1. Members of the Committee serve 

without compensation, but the Census 

Bureau will, upon request, reimburse 

travel expenses, as authorized by 5 

U.S.C. 5701, et. seq., dealing with travel 

and subsistence expenses. 

2. The Committee meets at least once 

a year. Meetings are one to two days in 

duration. 

3. Committee meetings are open to the 

public. 

Nomination Information 

1. The Census Bureau is seeking 

nominations to fill 10 seats on the 2010 

CAC to include organizations that are 

knowledgeable about issues related to 

the uses of the census data, general 

governmental entities, data users, 

research and technology-based 

organizations, businesses, children and 

youth, privacy and/or organizations 

serving historically undercounted 

populations. 

2. Member organizations shall serve a 

term of three years. Members may be 

invited to serve a second subsequent 

term contingent upon the organization’s 

active participation in advisory 

committee activities, overall advisory 

committee needs for that organization’s 

expertise and specialized advice, and 

the status and schedule of decennial 

planning activities and implementation. 

3. Nominations of organizations may 

come from individuals or organizations. 

Organizations also may self-nominate. A 

summary of the organization’s 

qualifications and the experience that 

qualifies it for membership should be 

included in the nomination letter. 

Nominated organizations must be able 

to actively participate in the tasks of the 

Committee, including, but not limited to 

regular meeting attendance, review of 

materials, and participation in 

conference calls, working groups, and 

special committee activities. 

4. The Department of Commerce is 

committed to equal opportunity in the 

workplace and seeks diverse Committee 

membership.
