The Committee’s primary
responsibility is to review the Prevailing

members or the management members
may caucus separately with the Chair to

discussed in these caucuses would
unacceptably impair the ability of the
Committee to reach a consensus on the
matters being considered and would
disrupt substantially the disposition of
its business. Therefore, these caucuses
will be closed to the public because of
a determination made by the Director of
the U.S. Office of Personnel
Management under the provisions of
section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (Pub. L. 92–463) and 5

available to the public, upon written
request to the Committee.
The public is invited to submit
