the written agenda.
The FAA will prepare an agenda of speakers who will be available at
the meeting. Every effort will be made to accommodate as many speakers
as possible. In addition, the amount of time allocated to each speaker
may be less than the amount of time requested.
Meeting Procedures
The following procedures are established to facilitate the meeting:
(1) There will be no admission fee or other charge to attend or to
participate in the meeting. The meeting will be open to all persons who
have requested in advance to present statements or who register on the
day of the meeting subject to availability of space in the meeting
room.
(2) There will be a morning and afternoon break and a lunch break.
(3) The meeting may adjourn early if scheduled speakers complete
their statements in less time than currently is scheduled for the
meeting.
(4) An individual, whether speaking in a personal or a
representative capacity on behalf of an organization, may be limited to
a 10-minute statement. If possible, we will notify the speaker if
additional time is available.
(5) The FAA will try to accommodate all speakers. If the available
time does not permit this, speakers generally will be scheduled on a
first-come-first-served basis. However, the FAA reserves the right to
exclude some speakers if necessary to present a balance of viewpoints
and issues.
(6) Sign and oral interpretation can be made available at the
meeting, as well as an assistive listening device, if requested at the
above number 10 calendar days before the meeting.
(7) Representatives of the FAA and JAA will preside over the
meeting.
(8) The meeting will be recorded by a court reporter. A transcript
of the meeting and any material accepted by the panel during the
meeting will be made a part of the official record. Any person who is
interested in purchasing a copy of the transcript should contact the
court reporter directly. This information will be available at the
meeting.
(9) The FAA will review and consider all material presented by
participants at the meeting. Position papers or material presenting
views or information related to proposed harmonization initiatives may
be accepted at the discretion of the FAA and JAA presiding officers.
The FAA requests that persons participating in the meeting provide five
(5) copies of all materials to be presented for distribution to the
panel members; other copies may be provided to the audience at the
discretion of the participant.
(10) Statements made by members of the meeting panel are intended
to facilitate discussion of the issues or to clarify issues. Any
statement made during the meeting by a member of the panel is not
intended to be, and should not be construed as, a position of the FAA
or JAA.
(11) The meeting is designed to solicit public views and more
complete information on proposed harmonization initiatives. Therefore,
the meeting will be conducted in an informal and nonadversarial manner.
No individual will be subject to cross-examination by any other
participant; however, panel members may ask questions to clarify a
statement and to ensure a complete and accurate record.
