SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Committee will advise the Assistant Secretary of Labor for 
Occupational Safety and Health in the formulation of construction 
safety and health standards under the Contract Work Hours and Safety 
Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3701 et seq.), commonly known as the 
Construction Safety Act (CSA), and the Occupational Safety and Health 
Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.). The ACCSH also provides 
advice on the administration of the safety and health provisions of the 
CSA (29 CFR 1912.5(c)).
    Under OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1912.3), the ACCSH is composed of 15 
members appointed by the Assistant Secretary as follows: One member who 
is a designee of the Secretary of Health and Human Services; five 
members who are qualified by experience and affiliation to represent 
the viewpoint of employers involved in construction; five members, 
similarly qualified, to represent the viewpoint of the employees 
involved in construction, two members who are representatives of State 
safety and health agencies; and two members who are qualified by 
knowledge and experience to represent the general public and to make a 
useful contribution to the work of the Committee. One of the members is 
appointed to serve as the Committee chair. Members generally serve two-
year staggered terms except for the designee of the Secretary of Health 
and Human Services who has no fixed term. Members may be appointed to 
serve successive terms or may be removed at any time and replaced. If

current charter was to have expired on July 3, 2008. In light of the 
Committee's past contribution toward OSHA's construction safety and 
health mission, OSHA has determined that renewal of the charter for 
another two years is necessary and in the public interest. In addition

matters in the following sections: the Objectives and Scope of Activity 
section was amended to include references to the Federal Advisory 
Committee Act to be consistent with the Department's procedures; the 
Membership section was amended to more accurately reflect Committee 
members' terms of service, the Estimated Annual Operating Costs in 
Dollars and Staff Years section was amended to reflect increases in the 
Committee's annual budget ($152,000 to $180,000) to account for 
increased costs for travel, logistical and conference support for the 
Committee and its workgroup meetings; and the Meetings section was 
amended to reflect that the Committee is generally expected to meet 
between two and four times per year.
