The
complete Terms of Reference of this
working group can be found on the
NOAA Science Advisory Board Web
site: https://www.sab.noaa.gov/
Working_Groups/standing/.
At this time, NOAA is soliciting for
up to eighteen members qualified to
represent users of NOAA environmental
information services, including, but not
limited to, the commercial weather
industry (both value-added and endusers), academia, and the media.
Membership may also include
representatives of federal, state and
regional government agencies and nongovernmental agencies. Members should
have a credible science background, and
an operational knowledge of federal
agencies and interactions with state and
local partners. The Working Group will
convene 2–3 times over a year following
the initial meeting. It will not advise
NOAA directly, but, instead, will advise
the SAB, which will deliberate on the
Working Group’s input before advising
NOAA.
The intent is to select the membership
of the group from the suggested
candidates; however, the SAB retains
the prerogative to propose members to
the working group who were not
nominated if it deems this necessary to
achieve the desired balance. Once
selected, the members’ names will be
posted at https://www.sab.noaa.gov.
The NOAA SAB has advised that the
establishment of EISWG should be an
interim solution. One year after the first
meeting of the EISWG, the NOAA SAB
will evaluate the effectiveness of this
Working Group as a mechanism for
obtaining advice on partnership issues
relating to environmental information
services. Following that evaluation, the
SAB will recommend other steps as
deemed necessary.
Nominations: Anyone is eligible to
nominate and self-nominations will be
accepted. Nominations should provide:
(1) The nominee’s full name, title,
institutional affiliation, and contact
information; (2) the nominee’s area(s) of
expertise; and (3) a concise Curriculum
Vitae (CV) or resume that covers
education, experience, relevant
publications and summarizes how this
expertise addresses the EISWG terms of
reference.
