and 41 CFR 102–3.50(a), the Department
of Defense gives notice that it is
renewing the charter for the United
States Strategic Command Strategic
Advisory Group (hereafter referred to as
‘‘the Group’’).
The Group shall provide independent
advice and recommendations related to
U.S. Strategic Command and its
operations.
The Group shall report to the
Secretary of Defense, through the
Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff and the
Commander of the U.S. Strategic
Command. The Chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff may act upon the Group’s
advice and recommendations. The
Group shall be composed of not more
than 50 members who are eminent
authorities in the fields of strategic
policy formulation, nuclear weapon
design and national command, control,
communications, intelligence and
information operations, or other
important aspects of the Nation’s
strategic forces.
All Group members shall be
appointed by the Secretary of Defense
and all member appointments require
annual renewal by the Secretary of
Defense. The Secretary of Defense may
approve the appointments of Group
members for four year terms of service;
however, no member, unless authorized
by the Secretary of Defense, may serve
more than two consecutive terms of
service. This same term of service
limitation also applies to any DoD
authorized subcommittees. Group
members appointed by the Secretary of
Defense, who are not full-time or
permanent part-time federal officers or
employees, shall be appointed under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 3109, and serve as
special government employees. In

her best judgment without representing

for recognized experts with different
perspectives pertaining to the specific
issue under consideration by the Group.
The consultants and non-voting
observers are selected by the
Commander of the U.S. Strategic
Command, and if not full-time or parttime government employees, shall be
appointed under the authority of 5
U.S.C. 3109, shall serve as special
government employees, and participate

not count toward the Group’s total
membership.
The Department, when necessary, and
consistent with the Group’s mission and
DoD policies and procedures, may
establish subcommittees deemed
necessary to support the Group.
Establishment of subcommittees will be
based upon a written determination, to
include terms of reference, by the
Secretary of Defense, the Deputy
Secretary of Defense, or the Group’s
sponsor. Such subcommittees shall not
work independently of the chartered
Group, and shall report all their
recommendations and advice to the
Group for full deliberation and
discussion. Subcommittees have no
authority to make decisions on behalf of
the chartered Group; nor can any
subcommittee or its members update or
report directly to the Department of
Defense or any Federal officers or
employees.
All subcommittee members shall be
appointed in the same manner as the
Group members; that is, the Secretary of
Defense shall appoint subcommittee
members even if the member in
question is already a Group member.
Subcommittee members, with the
approval of the Secretary of Defense,
may serve a term of service on the
subcommittee of four years subject to
annual renewals; however, no member
shall serve more than two consecutive
terms of service on the subcommittee.
Subcommittee members, if not fulltime or part-time government
employees, shall be appointed to serve
as experts and consultants under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 3109, and shall
serve as special government employees,
whose appointments must be renewed
by the Secretary of Defense on an
annual basis. With the exception of
travel and per diem for official Group
related travel, subcommittee members
shall serve without compensation.
All subcommittees operate under the
provisions of FACA, the Government in
the Sunshine Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C.
552b), governing Federal statutes and
