DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 5796] 

Advisory Committee to the U.S. 

Section of the Inter-American Tropical 

Tuna Commission (Committee 

Renewal) 

SUMMARY: The Department of State 

announces the renewal of the Charter 

for the Advisory Committee to the U.S. 

Section of the Inter-American Tropical 

Tuna Commission (IATTC) for an 

additional two years. The Advisory 

Committee to the U.S. Section of the 

IATTC may be terminated only by law. 

In accordance with the provisions of the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act (Pub. 

L. 92–463), a new Charter must be 

issued on a biennial basis from the date 

the current Charter was approved and 

filed with Congress and the Library of 

Congress. 

The IATTC was established pursuant 

to the Convention for the Establishment 

of an Inter-American Tropical Tuna 

Commission, signed in 1949. The 

purpose of the IATTC is to conserve and 

manage the fisheries and associated 

resources of the eastern tropical Pacific 

Ocean. The United States is represented 

to the IATTC by the U.S. Section, which 

includes four Presidentially-appointed 

Commissioners and a Department of 

State representative. 

The General Advisory Committee to 

the United States Section of the IATTC 

was established pursuant to Section 4 of 

the Tuna Conventions Act of 1950 (16 

U.S.C. 953, as amended), the 

implementing statute for the IATTC 

Convention. The goal of the Advisory 

Committee is to serve the U.S. Section 

to the IATTC, including the Department 

of State, as advisors on matters relating 

to international conservation and 

management of stocks of tuna and 

dolphins in the eastern tropical Pacific 

Ocean, and in particular to provide 

recommendations on the development 

of U.S. policy associated with such 

matters. 

The Committee is composed of 

representatives of the major U.S. tuna 

harvesting, processing, and marketing 

sectors, as well as recreational fishing 

and environmental interests, 

formulating specific policy 

recommendations for the U.S. Section to 

the IATTC. 

The Advisory Committee will 

continue to follow the procedure 

prescribed by the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA). Notice of 

meetings is published in the Federal 

Register in advance as required by 

FACA and meetings are open to the 

public unless a determination is made 

in accordance with Section l0 of the 

FACA that a meeting or a portion of the 

meeting should be closed to the public.
