environmental justice and community
sustainability issues at the national,
state, or local level;

and prepare reports and advice letters;
and
• willingness to commit time to the
committee and demonstrated ability to
work constructively and effectively on
committees.

interested person or organization may
nominate qualified persons to be
considered for appointment to this
advisory committee. Individuals are
