## I. Background

                    WOTAB was created under the Federal Advisory Committee Act                           ( print page 75088)                        (FACA) in accordance with section 23007(d)(1) of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) (Pub. L. 117-58), which requires the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to establish WOTAB. WOTAB will review and report on policies that provide education, training, mentorship, and outreach to women in the trucking industry and identify barriers and industry trends that directly or indirectly discourage women from pursuing and retaining careers in trucking.                

WOTAB operates in accordance with FACA under the terms of the WOTAB charter, filed February 11, 2022.
