ARMS CONTROL AND DISARMAMENT AGENCY


The Establishment of the Director's Advisory Committee (DirAC)

    In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended, 
the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency (ACDA) announces the 
establishment of the Director's Advisory Committee (DirAC). The 
Committee will provide the Director of ACDA with a continuing source of 
independent insight, advice, and innovation on all aspects of arms 
control, disarmament, and nonproliferation. Because the successful 
conduct of arms control

requires a synthesis of physical science, social science, military 
technology and strategy, diplomacy, and politics, the committee will be 
composed of persons with expertise in one or more of these areas. The 
work of this committee will be instrumental in enabling ACDA to 
contribute to the reduction or elimination of some significant threats 
to American national security. The committee will operate for two years 
unless terminated sooner or renewed.
John D. Holum,
Director.
