for a period of two years.

Pursuant to the Federal Advisory
Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. (2000),
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
announces the renewal of the following
advisory committee:
Title. The Art Advisory Panel of the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
Purpose. The Panel assists the
Internal Revenue Service by reviewing
and evaluating the acceptability of
property appraisals submitted by
taxpayers in support of the fair market
value claimed on works of art involved
in Federal Income, Estate or Gift taxes
in accordance with sections 170, 2031,
and 2512 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986.
In order for the Panel to perform this
function, Panel records and discussions
must include tax return information.
Therefore, the Panel meetings will be
closed to the public since all portions of
the meetings will concern matters that
are exempted from disclosure under the
provisions of section 552b(c)(3), (4), (6)
and (7) of Title 5 of the U.S. Code. This
determination, which is in accordance
with section 10(d) of the Federal
Advisory Committee Act, is necessary to
protect the confidentiality of tax returns
and return information as required by
section 6103 of the Internal Revenue
code.
Statement of Public Interest. It is in
the public interest to continue the
existence of the Art Advisory Panel. The
Secretary of Treasury, with the
concurrence of the General Services
Administration, has also approved
renewal of the Panel. The membership
of the Panel is balanced between
museum directors and curators, art
dealers and auction representatives to
afford differing points of view in
determining fair market value.
Authority for this Panel will expire
two years from the date the Charter is
approved by the Assistant Secretary for
Management and Chief Financial Officer
and filed with the appropriate
congressional committees unless, prior
to the expiration of its Charter, the Panel
is renewed.
The Commissioner of Internal
Revenue has determined that this
document is not a major rule as defined
in Executive Order 12291 and that a
regulatory impact analysis therefore is
not required. Neither does this
document constitute a rule subject to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that the Department of the
Treasury and the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) are inviting individuals to
help improve the nation’s tax agency by
applying to be members of the Taxpayer
Advocacy Panel (TAP). The mission of
the TAP is to listen to taxpayers,
identify issues that affect taxpayers, and
make suggestions for improving IRS
service and customer satisfaction. The
TAP serves as an advisory body to the
Secretary of the Treasury, the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and
the National Taxpayer Advocate. TAP
members will participate in
subcommittees that channel their
feedback to the IRS through the Panel’s
parent committee.
The IRS is seeking applicants who
have an interest in good government, a
personal commitment to volunteer
approximately 300 to 500 hours a year,
and a desire to help improve IRS
customer service. To the extent possible,
the TAP Director will ensure that TAP
membership is balanced and represents
a cross-section of the taxpaying public
with at least one member from each
state, the District of Columbia, and
Puerto Rico. Potential candidates must
be U.S. citizens and must pass an IRS
tax compliance check and a Federal
Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
background investigation. Federallyregistered lobbyists cannot be members
of the TAP.
TAP members are a diverse group of
citizens who represent the interests of
taxpayers from their respective
