                    Individuals or organizations wishing to submit written comments for consideration by the Task Force should provide their comments in an electronic (PDF Format) document to the Executive Secretary of the Department of Defense Task Force on the future of Military Health Care,                     *christine.bader@ha.osd.mil,*                     no later than April 6, 2007.                

                    Pursuant to the FACA statute, FACA regulations and DoD policy, substantive changes to any previously announced Federal advisory committee meeting notice must be republished in the                     **Federal Register**                    . Rescheduling the visit to San Antonio, Texas to comply with the 15-calendar day requirement of the Sunshine Act and 41 CFR 102-3.150(a) would have an adverse impact on the Task Force's ability to comply with its congressionally-mandated mission. 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: April 5, 2007.
