    Notice: Because of increased security requirements, CMS has 
instituted stringent procedures for entrance into the building by 
non-government employees. Persons without a government I.D. will 
need to show an official form of picture I.D., (such as a driver's 
license), and sign-in at the security desk upon entering the 
building. Those who wish to attend a specific ICD-9-CM C&M meeting 
in the CMS auditorium must submit their name and organization for 
addition to the meeting visitor list. Those wishing to attend the 
September 29-30, 2005 meeting must submit their name and 
organization by September 26, 2005 for inclusion on the visitor 
list. This visitor list will be maintained at the front desk of the 
CMS building and used by the guards to admit visitors to the 
meeting. Those who attended previous ICD-9-CM C&M meetings will no 
longer be automatically added to the visitor list. You must request 
inclusion of your name prior to each meeting you attend. Register to 
attend the meeting on-line at: http://cms.hhs.gov/events.
    Notice: This is a public meeting. However, because of fire code 
requirements, should the number of attendants meet the capacity of 
the room, the meeting will be closed.
    The Director, Management Analysis and Services Office, has been 
delegated the authority to sign Federal Register notices pertaining 
to announcements of meetings and other committee management 
activities, for both CDC and the Agency for Toxic Substances and 
Disease Registry.
