and is operated in accordance with the 

provisions of the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C. App.2. 

The Council consists of 15 members, 

including a Chairperson, appointed by 

the EPA’s Administrator. Five members 

represent the general public; five 

members represent appropriate State 

and local agencies concerned with water 

hygiene and public water supply; and 

five members represent private 

organizations or groups demonstrating

small, rural public water systems. The 

current list of members is available on 

the EPA Web site at: http://

water.epa.gov/drink/ndwac/. 

The Council will meet in person once 

each year and may hold a second 

meeting during the year either in person 

or by video/teleconferencing. These 

meetings generally occur in the spring 

and fall. Additionally, members may be 

asked to participate in ad hoc 

workgroups to develop policy 

recommendations, advice letters and 

reports to address specific program 

issues. 

Member Nominations: Any interested 

person and/or organization may 

nominate qualified individuals for 

membership. The EPA values and 

welcomes diversity. In an effort to 

obtain nominations of diverse 

candidates, the agency encourages 

nominations of women and men of all 

racial and ethnic groups. 

All nominations will be fully 

considered, but applicants need to be 

aware of the specific representation 

required by the SDWA for the current 

vacancies: State and local agencies 

concerned with water hygiene and 

public water supply (two vacancies), 

and private organizations or groups 

demonstrating an active interest in the 

field of water hygiene and public water 

supply (three vacancies). Other criteria 

used to evaluate nominees will include: 

• Demonstrated experience with 

drinking water issues at the national, 

State or local level; 

• Excellent interpersonal, oral and 

written communication and consensusbuilding skills; 

• Willingness to commit time to the 

Council and demonstrated ability to 

work constructively on committees; 

• Absence of financial conflicts of 

interest; 

• Absence of appearance of a lack of 

impartiality; and 

• Background and experiences that 

would help members contribute to the 

diversity of perspectives on the Council, 

e.g., geographic, economic, social, 

cultural, educational backgrounds, 

professional affiliations, and other 

considerations. 

Nominations must include a resume, 

which provides the nominee’s 

background, experience and educational 

qualifications, as well as a brief 

statement (one page or less) describing 

the nominee’s interest in serving on the 

Council and addressing the other 

criteria previously described. Nominees 

should be identified by name, 

occupation, position, current business 

address, and email and telephone

that they feel would be useful for 

consideration, such as: Availability to 

participate as a member of the Council; 

how the nominee’s background, skills 

and experience would contribute to the 

diversity of the Council; and any 

concerns the nominee has regarding 

membership. 

Persons selected for membership will 

receive compensation for travel and a 

nominal daily compensation (if 

appropriate) while attending meetings. 

Additionally, selected candidates will 

be required to fill out the ‘‘Confidential 

Financial Disclosure Form for EPA 

Special Government Employees’’ [EPA 

Form 3310–48]. This confidential form 

allows EPA to determine whether there 

is a statutory conflict between that 

person’s public responsibilities as a 

Special Government Employee and 

private interests and activities, or the 

appearance of a lack of impartiality, as 

defined by Federal regulation. The form 

may be viewed and downloaded 

through the ‘‘Ethics Requirements for 

Advisors’’ link on the EPA NDWAC 

Web site, http://water.epa.gov/drink/

ndwac/fact.cfm.

effectiveness of its outreach efforts, 

please tell us how you learned of this 

opportunity.
