Such subcommittees shall not work
independently of the chartered Board,
and shall report all their

employees, shall be appointed to serve
as experts and consultants under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 3109, and shall
serve as SGE members, whose
appointments must be renewed by the
Secretary of Defense on an annual basis.
Subcommittee members who are fulltime or permanent part-time Federal
employees shall be appointed as RGE
members. With the exception of travel

policies and procedures.
The Designated Federal Officer (DFO),
pursuant to DoD policy, shall be a fulltime or permanent part-time DoD
employee, and shall be appointed in
accordance with governing DoD policies
and procedures.
In addition, the Board’s DFO is
