Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Section 302 of Public Law 99–
662 established the Inland Waterways
Users Board. The Board is an
independent Federal advisory
committee. The Secretary of the Army
appoints its 11 members. This notice is
to solicit nominations for six (6)
appointments or reappointments to twoyear terms that will begin after March 1,
2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Office of the Assistant Secretary of the
Army (Civil Works), (703) 697–8986.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
selection, service, and appointment of
Board members are covered by
provisions of Section 302 of Public Law
99–662. The substance of those
provisions is as follows:
a. Selection. Members are to be
selected from the spectrum of
commercial carriers and shippers using
the inland and intracoastal waterways,
to represent geographical regions, and to
be representative of waterborne
commerce as determined by commodity
ton-miles statistics.
b. Service. The Board is required to
meet at least semi-annually to develop
and make recommendations to the
Secretary of the Army on waterways
construction and rehabilitation
priorities and spending levels for
commercial navigation improvements,
and report its recommendations
annually to the Secretary and Congress.
c. Appointment. The operation of the
Board and appointment of its members
are subject to the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (Pub. L. 92–463, as
amended) and departmental
implementing regulations. Members
serve without compensation but their
expenses due to Board activities are
reimbursable. The considerations
specified in Section 302 for the
selection of the Board members, and
certain terms used therein, have been
interpreted, supplemented, or otherwise
clarified as follows:
(1) Carriers and Shippers. The law
uses the terms ‘‘primary users and
shippers.’’ Primary users have been
interpreted to mean the providers of
transportation services on inland
waterways such as barge or towboat
operators. Shippers have been
interpreted to mean the purchasers of
such services for the movement of
commodities they own or control.
Individuals are appointed to the Board,
but they must be either a carrier or
shipper, or represent a firm that is a
carrier or shipper. For that purpose a
trade or regional association is neither a
shipper nor primary user.
(2) Geographical Representation. The
law specifies ‘‘various’’ regions. For the
purpose of selecting Board members, the
waterways subjected to fuel taxes and
described in Public Law 95–502, as
amended, have been aggregated into six
regions. They are (1) The Upper
Mississippi River and its tributaries
