The U.S.
Department of the Interior established
the USEITI Advisory Committee
(Committee) on July 26, 2012, to serve
as the initial USEITI multi-stakeholder
group. More information about the
Committee, including its charter, can be
found at www.doi.gov/eiti/faca.
The Public Outreach sessions will
share, explain, and obtain public
feedback for the MSG on the draft
USEITI Candidacy Application which
can be found at https://www.doi.gov/eiti/
FACA/sept-meeting.cfm. These sessions
will include the EITI candidacy
requirements, implementation
requirements, and the benefits of
implementing EITI in the United States.
We encourage stakeholders and
members of the public to participate in
the public comment period held from
September 15–November 1, 2013, to
gather feedback on the draft USEITI
Candidacy Application. During the
September 15–November 1 public
comment period, three public outreach
sessions and a public webinar will be
held as listed previously in this notice.
Further details regarding these sessions
will be provided in advance online at
www.doi.gov/eiti. The candidacy
application and comments about it can
be made online at www.doi.gov/eiti.
Background: In September 2011,
President Barack Obama announced the
United States’ commitment to
participate in the Extractive Industries
Transparency Initiative. EITI is a
signature initiative of the U.S. National
Action Plan for the international Open
Government Partnership and offers a
voluntary framework for governments
and companies to publicly disclose in
parallel the revenues paid and received
for extraction of oil, gas, and minerals
owned by the state. The design of each
framework is country-specific and is
developed through a multi-year,
consensus-based process by a multistakeholder group comprised of
government, industry, and civil society
representatives.
