It was established pursuant to section 40211 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), Public Law 117-58 (42 U.S.C. 18744) in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C. 10. This is the third meeting of the EWAB.                

*Tentative Agenda:*                     The meeting will start at 12 p.m. Eastern Time on November 20, 2023.

It is the policy of the EWAB to accept written public comments no longer than 5 pages and to accommodate oral public comments, whenever possible. The EWAB expects that public statements presented at the meetings will not be repetitive of previously submitted oral or written statements. The public comment period for this meeting will take place on November 20, 2023, at a time specified in the meeting agenda. This public comment period is designed only for substantive commentary on the EWAB's work, not for business marketing purposes. The Designated Federal Officer will conduct the meeting to facilitate the orderly conduct of business.

*Oral Comments:*                     To be considered for the public speaker list at the meeting, interested parties should register to speak by contacting                     *EWAB@hq.doe.gov*                     no later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on November 13, 2023. To accommodate as many speakers as possible, the time for public comments will be limited to three (3) minutes per person, with a total public comment period of up to 15 minutes. If more speakers register than there is space available on the agenda, the EWAB will select speakers on a first-come, first-served basis from those who applied. Those not able to present oral comments may always file written comments with the Board.                

*Written Comments:*                     Although written comments are accepted continuously, written comments relevant to the subjects of the meeting should be submitted to                     *EWAB@hq.doe.gov*                     no later than 12 p.m. Eastern Time on November 13, 2023, so that the comments may be made available to the EWAB members prior to this meeting for their consideration. Please note that because EWAB operates under the provisions of FACA, all public comments and related materials will be treated as public documents and will be made available for public inspection, including being posted on the EWAB website.                

*Minutes:*                     The minutes of this meeting will be available on the 21st Century Energy Workforce Advisory Board website at                     *https://www.energy.gov/​policy/​21st-century-energy-workforce-advisory-board-ewab*                     or by contacting Piper O'Keefe at                     *EWAB@hq.doe.gov.*
