officials responsible for State boating
safety programs;

boat and associated equipment
manufacturers; and
• Three representatives of national
recreational boating organizations or the
general public.
• Applications will also be
considered for a one vacancy in the
national recreational boating
organizations or the general public

by a last minute change in eligibility of
an individual recommended for
appointment in 2015. This position will
serve a term that expires on December

Applicants are considered for
membership on the basis of their
particular expertise, knowledge, and

member from the general public would
be someone appointed in their
individual capacity and would be
designated as a Special Government
Employee as defined in 202(a) of Title
18, United States Code. Registered

Homeland Security strives to achieve a
widely diverse candidate pool for all of
its recruitment actions.
If you are selected as a nonrepresentative member or as a member
