SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission was authorized on December 
11, 1991, by Public Law 102-211 (54 U.S.C. 320101 formerly 16 U.S.C.

(Secretary) on the implementation of a general management plan for the 
Mary McLeod Bethune Council House National Historic Site. The 
Commission meets at least semiannually to discuss matters relating to 
the management and development of the historic site.
    The Commission is composed of 15 members appointed by the Secretary 
for 4-year terms, as follows: (1) Three members selected from 
recommendations submitted by the National Council of Negro Women, Inc.; 
(2) two members selected from recommendations submitted by other 
national organizations in which Mary McLeod Bethune played a leadership 
role; (3) two members with professional expertise in the history of 
African American women; (4) three members with professional expertise

preservation. The NPS is currently seeking members to represent all 
categories.
    Nominations should be typed and include a resume providing an 
adequate description of the nominee's qualifications, including 
information that would enable the Department of the Interior to make an 
informed decision regarding meeting the membership requirements of the 
Commission and permit the Department to contact a potential member. All 
documentation, including letters of recommendation, must be compiled 
and submitted in one complete package. All those interested in 
membership, including current members whose terms are expiring, must

while away from their homes or regular places of business in the
