Nominations must include a resume, which provides the nominee’s background, experience and educational qualifications, as well as a brief statement (one page or less) describing the nominee’s interest in serving on the Council and addressing the other criteria described above. Nominees should be identified by name, occupation, position, current business address, and email and telephonenumber. Interested candidates may selfnominate.

The DFO will acknowledge receipt of nominations. Nominees are encouraged to provide any additional information that they feel would be useful for consideration, such as: availability to participate as a member of the Council; how the nominee’s background, skills and experience would contribute to the diversity of the Council; and any concerns the nominee has regarding membership.

Persons selected for membership will receive compensation for travel and a nominal daily compensation (if appropriate) while attending meetings. Additionally, selected candidates will be required to fill out the ‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure Form for EPA Special Government Employees’’ [EPA Form 3310–48].

The form may be viewed and downloaded through the ‘‘Ethics Requirements for Advisors’’ link on the OGWDW NDWAC Web site, http://water.epa.gov/drink/ ndwac/fact.cfm.
