FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The
Committee conducts its operations in
accordance with the provisions of
FACA. It reports to the Secretary of the
Interior through the Federal Geographic
Data Committee (FGDC) and functions
solely as an advisory body. The
Committee provides recommendations
and advice to the Department and the
FGDC on policy and management issues
related to the effective operation of
Federal geospatial programs.
The NGAC includes up to 30
members, selected to generally achieve
a balanced representation of the
viewpoints of the various stakeholders
involved in national geospatial
activities. NGAC members are
appointed for staggered terms, and
nominations received through this call
for nominations may be used to fill
vacancies on the Committee that will
become available in 2015 and 2016.
Nominations will be reviewed by the

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 meets approximately
3–4 times per year. Committee members
will serve without compensation, but
travel and per diem costs will be
provided by USGS. The USGS will also
provide necessary support services to
the Committee. Committee meetings are
