    There will be approximately thirty minutes allotted for oral

accommodate as many speakers as possible, the time for each commenter 
may be limited. Individuals wishing to reserve speaking time during the 
meeting must submit a request at the time of registration, as well as 
the name, address, and organizational affiliation of the proposed 
speaker. If the number of registrants requesting to make statements is 
greater than can be reasonably accommodated during the meeting, the FAA 
Office of Commercial Space Transportation may conduct a lottery to 
determine the speakers. Speakers are requested to submit a written copy 
of their prepared remarks for inclusion in the meeting records and for 
circulation to COMSTAC members. All prepared remarks submitted on time 
will be accepted and considered as part of the record. Any member of 
the public may present a written statement to the committee at any 
time.
