SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interior 

established the Committee on July 26, 

2012, in accordance with the provisions 

of the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 2), 

and with the concurrence of the General 

Services Administration. The 

Committee serves as the U.S. Extractive 

Industries Transparency Initiative 

Multi-Stakeholder Group and advises 

the Secretary of the Interior on design 

and implementation of the initiative. 

The Committee does the following: 

• Oversees the U.S. implementation 

of the Extractive Industries 

Transparency Initiative (EITI), a global 

standard for governments to publicly 

disclose revenues received from oil, gas, 

and mining assets belonging to the 

government, with parallel public 

disclosure by companies of payments to 

the government (e.g. royalties, rents, 

bonuses, taxes, or other payments). 

• Develops and recommends to the 

Secretary a fully-costed work plan, 

containing measurable targets and a 

timetable for implementation and 

incorporating an assessment of capacity 

constraints. This plan will be developed 

in consultation with key EITI 

stakeholders and published upon 

completion. 

• Provides opportunities for 

collaboration and consultation among 

stakeholders. 

• Advises the Secretary and posts for 

consideration by other stakeholders 

proposals for conducting long-term 

oversight and other activities necessary 

to achieve and maintain EITI-compliant 

status. 

The Committee consists of 

representatives from three stakeholder 

sectors. The sectors are as follows: 

• Industry, including non-Federal 

representatives from the extractive 

industry, including oil, gas, and mining 

companies and industry-related trade 

associations. 

• Civil society, including 

organizations with an interest in 

extractive industries, transparency, and 

government oversight; members of the 

public; and public and/or private 

investors. 

• Government, including Federal, 

State, local, and Tribal governments and 

individual Indian mineral owners. 

In addition to honoring the EITI 

principle of self-selection within the 

stakeholder sector, the following criteria 

will be considered in making final 

selections: 

• Understanding of and commitment 

to the EITI process; 

• Ability to collaborate and operate in 

a multi-stakeholder setting; 

• Access to and support from a 

relevant stakeholder constituency; and 

• Basic understanding of the 

extractive industry and/or revenue 

collection; or willingness to be educated 

on such matters. 

Nominations should include a resume 

providing relevant contact information 

and 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 

Committee and to permit the 

Department of the Interior to contact a 

potential member.

Parties are strongly encouraged to 

work with and within stakeholder 

sectors (including industry, civil 

society, and government sectors, as the 

EITI process defines) to jointly consider 

and submit nominations that, overall, 

reflect the diversity and breadth of their 

sector. Nominees are strongly 

encouraged to include supporting letters 

from constituents, trade associations, 

alliances, and/or other organizations 

that indicate the support by a 

meaningful constituency for the 

nominee. 

Individuals who are Federally 

registered lobbyists are ineligible to 

serve on all FACA and non-FACA 

boards, committees, or councils in an 

individual capacity. The term 

‘‘individual capacity’’ refers to 

individuals who are appointed to 

exercise their own individual best 

judgment on behalf of the government, 

such as when they are designated 

Special Government Employees, rather 

than being appointed to represent a 

particular interest. 

The Committee will meet quarterly or 

at the request of the Designated Federal 

Officer. Non-Federal members of the 

Committee will serve without 

compensation. However, we may pay 

the Travel and per diem expenses of 

Committee members, if appropriate, 

under the Federal Travel Regulations.

Public Review of the Draft Part 2 

(Revision), Digital Orthoimagery, of the 

Federal Geographic Data Committee 

(FGDC) Geographic Information 

Framework Data Standard 

AGENCY: U.S. Geological Survey, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice; request for comment 

SUMMARY: The Federal Geographic Data 

Committee (FGDC) is conducting a 

public review of the draft Part 2 

(revision), Digital Orthoimagery, of the 

FGDC Geographic Information 

Framework Data Standard. 

The primary purpose of Part 2, Digital 

Orthoimagery, of the FGDC Geographic 

Information Framework Data Content 

Standard is to support exchange of 

orthoimagery data. Part 2 seeks to 

establish a common baseline for the 

semantic content of orthoimagery 

databases for public agencies and 

private enterprises. It also seeks to 

decrease the costs and simplify the 

exchange of orthoimagery data among 

local, Tribal, State, and Federal users 

and producers. That, in turn, 

discourages duplicative data collection. 

Benefits of adopting Part 2 also include 

the long-term improvement of geospatial 

orthoimagery data within the 

community. 

The draft Part 2 (revision), Digital 

Orthoimagery, of the FGDC Geographic 

Information Framework Data Standard, 

may be downloaded from https://www.

fgdc.gov/standards/projects/FGDCstandards-projects/framework-datastandard/DraftRevisionPart2. Comments 

shall be submitted using the content 

template at http://www.fgdc.gov/

standards/process/standards-directives/

template.doc. Instructions for 

completing the comment template are 

found in FGDC Standards Directive #2d, 

Standards Working Group Review 

Guidelines: Review Comment Template, 

http://www.fgdc.gov/standards/process/

standards-directives/directive-2dstandards-working-group-reviewguidelines-review-comment-template. 

Comments that concern specific 

issues/changes/additions may result in 

changes in the draft Part 2 (revision), 

Digital Orthoimagery, of the FGDC 

Geographic Information Framework 

Data Standard. Reviewers may obtain 

information about how comments were 

addressed upon request. After FGDC 

endorsement of Part 2 (revision), Digital 

Orthoimagery, of the FGDC Geographic 

Information Framework Data Standard 

and a summary analysis of the changes 

will be made available to the public on 

the FGDC Web site, www.fgdc.gov. 

DATES: Comments on the draft Part 2 

(revision), Digital Orthoimagery, of the 

FGDC Geographic Information 

Framework Data Standard, shall be 

submitted to Ms. Julie Binder Maitra, 

FGDC Standards Coordinator, jmaitra@

fgdc.gov by March 24, 2015. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Julie Binder Maitra, U.S. Geological 

Survey, Federal Geographic Data 

Committee, jmaitra@fgdc.gov, 703–648–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Part 2, 

Digital Orthoimagery, of the FGDC 

Geographic Information Framework 

Data Standard specifies data content 

and logical structure for the description 

and interchange of framework digital 

orthoimagery. To a certain extent, it also 

provides guidelines for the acquisition 

and processing of imagery for generation 

of digital orthoimagery and specifies the 

documentation of those acquisition and 

processing steps. The primary focus of 

Part 2 is on images sensed in the visible 

to near infrared portion of the 

electromagnetic spectrum; however, 

images captured from other portions of 

the electromagnetic spectrum are not 

precluded. 

It is the intent of Part 2, Digital 

Orthoimagery, of the FGDC Geographic 

Information Framework Data Standard 

to set a common baseline that will 

ensure the widest utility of digital 

orthoimagery for the user and producer 

communities through enhanced data 

sharing and the reduction of redundant 

data production. Part 2 stresses 

complete and accurate reporting of 

information relating to quality control 

and standards employed in testing 

orthoimagery data. 

Part 2, Digital Orthoimagery, of the 

FGDC Geographic Information 

Framework Data Standard applies to 

orthoimagery data produced or 

disseminated by or for the Federal 

government. According to Office of 

Management and the Budget (OMB) 

Circular A–16 (Revised) on 

Coordination of Geographic Information 

Related Spatial Data Activities, Federal 

agencies collecting or producing 

geospatial data, either directly or 

indirectly (for example, through grants, 

partnerships, or contracts with other 

entities), shall ensure, prior to obligating 

funds for such activities, that data will 

be collected in a manner that meets all 

relevant standards adopted through the 

Federal Geographic Data Committee 

(FGDC) process. 

Work on the FGDC Geographic 

Information Framework Data Standard 

began under the Geospatial One-Stop eGovernment initiative. The FGDC 

subsequently endorsed the Geographic 

Information Framework Data Standard, 

Parts 1–7, in 1998. Part 2 needed to be 

revised due to technological changes, 

such as the transition from film to 

digital cameras. The main changes 

included adding new terms, 

clarification of definitions, and typo 

fixes. 

The FGDC coordinates the 

development of the National Spatial 

Data Infrastructure (NSDI), which 

encompasses the policies, standards, 

and procedures for organizations to 

cooperatively produce and share 

geospatial data. Federal agencies that 

make up the FGDC develop the NSDI in 

cooperation with organizations from 

State, local and tribal governments, the 

academic community, and the private 

sector. The authority for the FGDC is
