It is imperative that the meeting be held on these dates to accommodate the scheduling priorities of the key participants.

Note:

In accordance with Section 102-3.150(b) of the GSA Federal Advisory Committee Management; Final Rule (41 CFR parts 101-6 and 102-3), this meeting is being announced with less than 15 day notification due to the recent Federal Government shutdown which forced NASA to cancel a previously scheduled meeting of the Planetary Science Subcommittee where a time-critical, mandatory review and scoring of agency annual performance goals, required by the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010, was to take place. Due to the length of the shutdown a teleconference will be used to complete this action prior to the Office of Management and Budget imminent deadline. Because a quorum of the Planetary Science Subcommittee is required for this action, November 5, 2013, is the only available date for this telecon.

Advisory Committee Management Officer, National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
