SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interior
established the Committee on July 26,

of the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 2),
and with the concurrence of the General
Services Administration. The

Committee serves as the U.S. Extractive
Industries Transparency Initiative
Multi-Stakeholder Group and advises
the Secretary of the Interior on design
and implementation of the initiative.
The Committee does the following:
• Oversees the U.S. implementation
of the Extractive Industries
Transparency Initiative (EITI), a global
standard for governments to publicly
disclose revenues received from oil, gas,
and mining assets belonging to the
government, with parallel public
disclosure by companies of payments to
the government (such as royalties, rents,
bonuses, taxes, or other payments)
• Develops and recommends to the
Secretary a fully-costed work plan,
containing measurable targets and a
timetable for implementation and
incorporating an assessment of capacity
constraints; this plan will be developed
in consultation with key EITI
stakeholders and published upon
completion
• Provides opportunities for
collaboration and consultation among
stakeholders
• Advises the Secretary and posts for
consideration by other stakeholders
proposals for conducting long-term
oversight and other activities necessary
to achieve and maintain EITI-compliant
status
The Committee consists of
representatives from three stakeholder
sectors. The sectors are as follows:
• Industry—including non-Federal
representatives from the extractive
industry—including oil, gas, and mining
companies and industry-related trade
associations.
• Civil society, including
organizations with an interest in
extractive industries, transparency, and
government oversight; members of the
public; and public and/or private
investors.
• Government, including Federal,
State, local, and Tribal governments and
individual Indian mineral owners.
In addition to honoring the EITI
principle of self-selection within the
stakeholder sector, we will consider the
following criteria when making final
selections:
• Understanding of and commitment
to the EITI process
• Ability to collaborate and operate in
a multi-stakeholder setting
• Access to and support from a
relevant stakeholder constituency
• Basic understanding of the
extractive industry and/or revenue
collection or willingness to be educated
on such matters
Nominations should include a resume
providing relevant contact information
and an adequate description of the
E:\FR\FM\08MYN1.SGM
08MYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 89 / Friday, May 8, 2015 / Notices
nominee’s qualifications, including
information that would enable the
Department of the Interior to make an
informed decision regarding meeting the
membership requirements of the
Committee and to permit the
Department of the Interior to contact a
potential member.
Parties are strongly encouraged to
work with and within stakeholder
sectors (including industry, civil
society, and government sectors, as the
EITI process defines) to jointly consider
and submit nominations that, overall,
reflect the diversity and breadth of their
sector. Nominees are strongly
encouraged to include supporting letters
from constituents, trade associations,
alliances, and/or other organizations
that indicate the support by a
meaningful constituency for the
nominee.
Individuals who are Federally
registered lobbyists are ineligible to
serve on FACA and non-FACA boards,
committees, or councils in an individual
capacity. The term ‘‘individual
capacity’’ refers to individuals who are
appointed to exercise their own
individual best judgment on behalf of
the government, such as when they are
designated Special Government
Employees, rather than being appointed
to represent a particular interest.
The Committee will meet quarterly or
at the request of the Designated Federal
Officer. Non-Federal members of the
Committee will serve without
compensation. However, we may pay
the travel and per diem expenses of
Committee members, if appropriate,
under the Federal Travel Regulations.
