governments. The Committees are responsible for providing advice to the 
U.S. Representative on a wide range of strategic, scientific, 
technological, regulatory, and economic issues related to 
implementation and further elaboration of the NAAEC.
    The purpose of the meeting is to provide advice on the CEC's 2010 
Draft Operational Plan, the CEC's new Strategic Plan, and learn about 
regional trans-boundary environmental issues. The meeting will also
