AGENCY: United States Information Agency.
ACTION: Notice of meeting of the Cultural Property Advisory Committee.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Cultural Property Advisory Committee will meet on Friday,
August 6, 1999, from approximately 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Woodrow
Wilson International Center for Scholars, Ronald Reagan Building, The
Board Room, 6th Floor, 1300 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC, to
review the bilateral cultural property agreements the U.S. entered into
with Canada and Peru pursuant to the Convention on Cultural Property
Implementation Act (19 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., Public Law 97-446). A
portion of the meeting, from approximately 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. will be
open to interested parties wishing to provide comment to the Committee
that may have relevance to these agreements. The texts of the
agreements and the designated lists of artifacts from these countries
that are restricted from importation by U.S. customs may be found at

the telephone number listed below. The agreements, entered into with
Canada on April 10, 1997, and with Peru on June 9, 1997, will be
reviewed pursuant to the Act. Since review of this matter by the
Committee will involve information the premature disclosure of which
would be likely to significantly frustrate implementation of proposed
action, the meeting from approximately 9 a.m. to approximately 12 Noon,
and from approximately 2:30 p.m. to approximately 5 p.m. will be closed
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B) and 19 U.S.C. 2605(h). Persons
wishing to attend the open portion of the meeting, must notify the
