NBSAC normally meets twice a year at a location selected by the
Coast Guard. When attending meetings of the Council, members are

The Coast Guard will consider applications for the following seven
positions that expire or become vacant in December 1997: three
representatives of State officials responsible for State boating safety
programs; two representatives of the boating industry; and two
representatives of national recreational boating organizations and from
the general public. Applicants are considered for membership on the
basis of their expertise, knowledge, and experience in recreational
boating safety. Each member serves for a term of 3 years unless filling
an unexpired term. A few members may serve consecutive terms.
