FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION


Technological Advisory Council

ACTION: Notice of meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public 
Law 92-463, as amended, this notice advises interested persons of the 
first meeting of the Technological Advisory Council (``Council'') under 
its new charter, which will be held at the Federal Communications 
Commission in Washington, DC.

DATES: Wednesday, June 13, 2001 at 10:00 a.m.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th St. S.W., Room 
TW-C305 Washington DC 20554.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Council was established by the Federal 
Communications Commission to provide a means by which a diverse array 
of recognized technical experts from a variety of interests such as 
industry, academia, government, citizens groups, etc., can provide 
advice to the FCC on innovation in the communications industry. The 
purpose of this first meeting under the Council's new charter will be 
to organize the Council's efforts to fulfill its responsibilities under 
the charter. Members of the general public may attend the meeting. The 
Federal Communications Commission will attempt to accommodate as many 
persons as possible. Admittance, however, will be limited to the 
seating available. Unless so requested by the Council's Chair, there 
will be no public oral participation, but the public may submit written 
comments to Julius Knapp, the Council's Designated Federal Officer, 
before the meeting. Julius Knapp's email address is <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#3258595c534242725451511c555d44"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b7dddcd9d6c7c7f7d1d4d499d0d8c1">[email protected]</span></a>. His 
U.S. mail address is Julius Knapp, Deputy Chief, Office of Engineering 
and Technology, Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th Street, SW, 
Washington, DC 20554. Continuously accelerating technological changes 
in telecommunications design, manufacturing, and deployment require 
that the Commission be promptly informed of those changes to fulfill 
its statutory mandate effectively. Notice of this meeting was delayed 
because of the large number of exceptionally well qualified applicants 
who were nominated for membership on the Council, and the need to 
insure that the composition of the Council would best achieve the 
objectives that have been set for this Council promptly. Future 
meetings of the Council have been scheduled for September 20, 2001; 
December 5, 2001; March 20, 2002; June 12, 2002; September 18, 2002; 
and December 4, 2002. Additional meetings may be scheduled as 
necessary. Future meetings will address the topics that the Council has 
been asked to consider by the Commission. All meetings will be held in 
the Commission meeting room, Room TW-C-305, 445 12th Street, S.W., 
Washington, D.C. Each meeting will begin at 10:00 A.M. and continue 
until the business before the Council on that date has been completed.
