    U.S. International Telecommunication Advisory Committee (ITAC); 
    Renewal
    
        The Department of State has renewed the Charter of the United 
    States International Telecommunication Advisory Committee (ITAC). This 
    advisory committee will continue to obtain the views and advice of 
    American experts and interested parties with respect to a broad range 
    of technical, operational and administrative questions in the 
    telecommunications and information sector. ITAC's focus is on U.S. 
    participation in the work of international treaty organizations, 
    primarily the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the OAS 
    Inter-American Telecommunication Commission (CITEL).

        The committee's principal work, which is to develop, coordinate and 
    recommend contributions to and positions for international meetings and 
    conferences, has been a major factor in ensuring effective U.S. 
    preparations for the relevant international activities. The Under 
    Secretary for Management has determined that the committee is necessary 
    and in the public interest.
        Membership in the ITAC is unlimited and may include representatives 
    of all parties interested in the telecommunications and information 
    fields or in the work of ITAC, including U.S. Government agencies, 
    recognized operating agencies, service providers, manufacturers, users, 
    associations, academia, and the public in general. The committee will 
    follow the procedures prescribed by the Federal Advisory Committee Act 
    (FACA). Meetings will be open to the public unless a determination is 
    made in accordance with section 10(d) of the FACA, 5 U.S.C. 
    Secs. 552b(c)(1) and (4), that a meeting or a portion of the meeting 
    should be closed to the public. Notice of each meeting will be provided 
    in the Federal Register at least 15 days prior to the meeting date.
