    Notice: Because of increased security requirements, CMS has 
instituted stringent procedures for entrance into the building by

need to show an official form of picture I.D., (such as a drivers 
license), and sign-in at the security desk upon entering the 
building.
    Those who wish to attend a specific ICD-9-CM C&M meeting in the 
CMS auditorium must submit their name and organization for addition 
to the meeting visitor list. Those wishing to attend the March 22-
23, 2007 meeting must submit their name and organization by March 
14, 2007 for inclusion on the visitor list. This visitor list will 
be maintained at the front desk of the CMS building and used by the 
guards to admit visitors to the meeting. Those who attended previous 
ICD-9-CM C&M meetings will no longer be automatically added to the 
visitor list. You must request inclusion of your name prior to each 
meeting you attend.

    Notice: This is a public meeting. However, because of fire code 
requirements, should the number of attendants meet the capacity of 
the room, the meeting will be closed.
    The Director, Management Analysis and Services Office, has been 
delegated the authority to sign Federal Register notices pertaining 
to announcements of meetings and other committee management
