Background
On August 10, 2005, the President
signed into law the Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU)
(Pub. L. 109–59, 119 Stat. 1144). Section
1914 of SAFETEA–LU mandates the
establishment of the Motorcyclist
Advisory Council as follows: ‘‘The
Secretary, acting through the
Administrator of the Federal Highway
Administration, in consultation with the
Committee on Transportation and
Infrastructure of the House of
Representatives and the Committee on
Environment and Public Works of the
Senate, shall appoint a Motorcyclist
Advisory Council to coordinate with
and advise the Administrator on
infrastructure issues of concern to
motorcyclists, including—
(1) Barrier design;
(2) Road design, construction, and
maintenance practices; and
(3) The architecture and
implementation of intelligent
transportation system technologies.’’
In addition, section 1914 specifies the
membership of the council: ‘‘The
Council shall consist of not more than
10 members of the motorcycling
community with professional expertise
in national motorcyclist safety
advocacy, including—
(1) At least—
(A) One member recommended by a
national motorcyclist association;

(B) One member recommended by a
national motorcycle riders foundation;
(C) One representative of the National
Association of State Motorcycle Safety
Administrators;
(D) Two members of State
motorcyclists’ organizations;
(E) One member recommended by a
national organization that represents the
builders of highway infrastructure;

national association that represents the
traffic safety systems industry; and
(G) One member of a national safety
organization; and
(2) At least one, and not more than
two, motorcyclists who are traffic
system design engineers or State
transportation department officials.’’
To carry out this requirement, the
FHWA published a notice of intent to
form an advisory committee in the
Federal Register on December 23, 2005
(70 FR 76353). This notice, consistent
with the requirements of the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA),
announced the establishment of the
Council and invited comments and
nominations for membership. The
FHWA announced the ten members
selected to the Council in the Federal
Register on October 5, 2006 (71 FR
58903). An electronic copy of this
document and the previous Federal
Register notices associated with the
MAC–FHWA can be downloaded
through the Document Management
System (DMS) at: https://dms.dot.gov/
submit and the Office of the Federal
Register’s home page at: https://
www.archives.gov/federal_register.
The FHWA anticipates that the MAC–
FHWA will meet at least once a year,
with meetings held in the Washington,
DC, area and the FHWA will publish
notices in the Federal Register to
announce the times, dates, and locations
of these meetings. Meetings of the
Council are open to the public and time
will be provided in each meeting’s
schedule for comments by members of
the public. Attendance will necessarily
be limited by the size of the meeting
room. Members of the public may
present oral or written comments at the
meeting or may present written
materials by providing copies to Ms.
Fran Bents, Westat, 1650 Research
Boulevard, Rockville, MD 20850–3195,
(240) 314–7557, ten (10) days prior to
the meeting.
The agenda topics for the meetings
will include a discussion of the
following issues: (1) Barrier design; (2)
road design, construction, and
maintenance practices; and (3) the
architecture and implementation of
intelligent transportation system
technologies.
