cooperation with the Department of
Homeland Security’s Office of
Interoperability and Compatibility
(DHS/OIC) and representatives of the
public safety community, will hold a
public roundtable on September 11–12,
2007, at the Institute for
Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) in
Boulder, CO. The purpose of the
roundtable is to discuss the
development of an implementation
profile for VoIP between radio system
bridging solutions. The results of this
and subsequent roundtable discussions
will be used in the development of
specific implementation profiles for
VoIP usage in public-safety owned
systems.
There is no charge for the roundtable;
however, because of meeting room
restrictions, advance registration is
mandatory and limited to three
representatives from any one
organization. There will be no on-site,
same-day registration. The registration
deadline is September 4, 2007. Please
note registration and admittance
instructions and other additional
information under the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section of this notice.
DATES: The workshop will be held on
September 11–12, 2007, from 8:30 a.m.
until 5 p.m. MT.
ADDRESSES: The roundtable will be held
in the Radio Building (Building 1),
Room 1103/1105, 325 Broadway,
Boulder, CO 80305.

Dereck Orr, (303) 497–5342, e-mail:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
response to a request from the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS), Science and Technology
Directorate (S&T), Command, Control
and Interoperability Division (C2I),
Office of Interoperability and
Compatibility (OIC), the NIST Office of
Law Enforcement Standards (OLES) is
developing protocol implementation
profiles for VoIP communications
between public safety personnel.
The request from OIC germinated
from practitioner-raised issues related to
VoIP-enabled solutions being marketed
to the public safety community as an
‘‘interoperability solution,’’ yet these
solutions will not interoperate with
VoIP-enabled solutions from other

manufacturers making the same claim.
The proper way to address this situation
is to develop a protocol implementation
profile (or set of profiles) that contains
the minimum standards, parameters and
values necessary to ensure that
solutions developed by independent
organizations will interoperate with
each other. This roundtable discussion
is intended to lead to the development
of a protocol implementation profile for
VoIP-enabled radio system bridging
solutions.
Anyone wishing to attend this
meeting must register by close of
business September 4, 2007, in order to
attend. Please submit your name, time

number to Ms. Kathy Mayeda and she

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of Appeal
Donald Williams filed a notice of
appeal with the Secretary of Commerce
pursuant to the Coastal Zone
Management Act of 1972 (CZMA), 16
U.S.C. 1451 et seq., and implementing
regulations found at 15 CFR Part 930,
Subpart H. Mr. Williams appeals an
objection, filed by the State of New
York, to a consistency determination
prepared by Mr. Williams related to his
proposed erosion project (stone rip-rap)
along the shoreline of Lake Ontario, in
Niagara County, New York.
In the federal consistency appeal
process, the Secretary may override the
State’s objection on grounds that the
project is consistent with the objectives
or purposes of the CZMA or necessary
in the interest of national security. To
make the determination that the
proposed activity is ‘‘consistent with
objective or purposes’’ of the CZMA, the
Secretary must find that: (1) The
proposed activity furthers the national
interest as articulated in sections 302 or
303 of the CZMA, in a significant or
substantial manner; (2) the adverse
effects of the proposed activity do not
outweigh its contribution to the national
interest, when those effects are
considered separately or cumulatively;
and (3) no reasonable alternative is
available that would permit the activity
to be conducted in a manner consistent
with enforceable policies of the state’s
coastal management program. 15 CFR
930.121 (2005), as amended, 71 FR 787,
831 (Jan. 5, 2006). To make the
determination that the proposed activity
is ‘‘necessary in the interest of national
security,’’ the Secretary must find that a
national defense or other national
security interest would be significantly
impaired were the project not allowed
to go forward. 15 CFR 930.121.

Written comments are invited on any

The
HIHWNMS Advisory Council was
established in March 1996 to assure
continued public participation in the
management of the Sanctuary. Since its
establishment, the Council has played a
vital role in the decisions affecting the
Sanctuary surrounding the main
Hawaiian Islands.
The Council’s twenty-four voting
members represent a variety of local
user groups, as well as the general
public, plus ten local, state and federal
governmental jurisdictions.
Council is supported by three
committees: a Research Committee
chaired by the Research Representative,
an Education Committee chaired by the
Education Representative, and a
Conservation Committee chaired by the
Conservation Representative, each
respectively dealing with matters
concerning research, education and
resource protection.
The Council represents the
coordination link between the
Sanctuary and the state and federal
management agencies, user groups,
researchers, educators, policy makers,
and other various groups that help to
focus efforts and attention on the
humpback whale and its habitat around
the main Hawaiian Islands.
The Council functions in an advisory
capacity to the Sanctuary Manager and
is instrumental in helping to develop
policies and program goals, and to
identify education, outreach, research,
long-term monitoring, resource
protection and revenue enhancement
priorities. The Council works in concert
with the Sanctuary Manager by keeping
him or her informed about issues of
concern throughout the Sanctuary,
offering recommendations on specific
issues, and aiding the Manager in
achieving the goals of the Sanctuary
program within the context of Hawai‘i’s
marine programs and policies.
