presentation will be limited to a total time of ten minutes. Written 
comments received in the SAB Staff Office sufficiently prior to a

meeting date will normally be provided to the committee at its meeting. 
Written comments may be provided to the relevant committee or 
subcommittee up until the time of the meeting.
