    Public attendance at the open portions of this USAFA BoV meeting 
shall be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis up to the 
reasonable and safe capacity of the meeting room. In addition, any 
member of the public wishing to provide input to the USAFA BoV should 
submit a written statement in accordance with 41 CFR 102-3.140(c) and 
section 10(a)(3) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) and the 
procedures described in this paragraph. Written statements must address 
the following details: the issue, discussion, and a recommended course 
of action. Supporting documentation may also be included as needed to 
establish the appropriate historical context and provide any necessary 
background information. Written statements can be submitted to the 
Designated Federal Officer (DFO) at the Air Force Pentagon address 
detailed below at any time. However, if a written statement is not 
received at least 10 days before the first day of the meeting which is 
the subject of this notice, then it may not be provided to, or 
considered by, the BoV until its next open meeting. The DFO will review 
all timely submissions with the BoV Chairperson and ensure they are 
provided to members of the BoV before the meeting that is the subject 
of this notice. If, after review of timely submitted written comments, 
the BoV Chairperson and DFO deem appropriate, they may choose to allot 
a specific amount of time for the proposed subject, and invite the 
submitter of the written comments to orally present their issue during 
an open portion of the BoV meeting that is the subject of this notice. 
Members of the BoV may also petition the Chairperson to allow specific 
persons to make oral presentations before the BoV. Any oral 
presentations before the BoV shall be in accordance with 41 CFR 102-
3.140(d), section 10(a)(3) of the FACA, and this paragraph. Direct 
questioning of BoV members or meeting participants by the public is not 
permitted except with the approval of the DFO and Chairperson.
    For the benefit of the public, rosters that list the names of BoV 
members and any releasable materials presented during open portions of 
this BoV meeting shall be made available upon request.

Manpower and Personnel, AF/A1DOA, 2221 S. Clark St., Ste. 500,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Due to scheduling difficulties the U.S. Air 
Force Academy Board of Visitors was unable to finalize its agenda in 
time to publish notice of its meeting in the Federal Register for the 
15-calendar days 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.
