SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the requirements of the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, notice is given that the Advisory Panel 
to the U.S. Section of the North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission 
(NPAFC) will meet on the date and time noted above. The panel consists 
of members from the states of Alaska and Washington who represent the 
broad range of fishing and conservation interests in anadromous and 
ecologically related species in the North Pacific. Certain members also 
represent relevant state and regional authorities. The panel was 
established in 1992 to advise the U.S. Section of the NPAFC on research 
needs and priorities for anadromous species, such as salmon, and 
ecologically related species occurring in the high seas of the North 
Pacific Ocean. The upcoming Panel meeting will focus on two major 
topics:
    (1) Review of the agenda for the 2010 annual meeting of the NPAFC 
(Nov. 1-5, 2010; Busan, Republic of Korea); and (2) logistics for the 
U.S. Section at the NPAFC meeting. Background material is available 
from the point of contact noted above and by visiting http://www.npafc.org.
    This announcement will appear in the Federal Register less than 15 
days prior to the meeting. The Department of State finds that there is 
an exceptional circumstance in that this advisory committee meeting 
must be held on October 12th in order to adequately prepare for the 
NPAFC to be convened in Korea on November 1st, as well as the necessity 
of preparing the U.S. Section.

    Dated: October 1, 2010.
William Gibbons-Fly,
Director, Office of Marine Conservation, Department of State.
