AGENCY:

Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION:

Notice of meeting; revision.

SUMMARY:

On Tuesday, July 8, 2014, the Department of Defense published a meeting notice titled Independent Review Panel on Military Medical Construction Standards; Notice of Federal Advisory Committee Meeting (79 FR 38522-38523). Subsequent to the publication of that notice, the Department of Defense realized that the original notice did not specify the location for each of the three meeting dates. In addition, the staff at Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center required modifications to the original times. This notice makes these revisions. The “Agenda” paragraph in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section is reprinted with revisions. All other information in the July 8, 2014 notice remains the same.
