Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 190 / Tuesday, October 1, 2019 / Notices
The members of RSTAC receive no
compensation for their services and are
required to provide for the expenses
incidental to their service, including
travel expenses. Currently, RSTAC
members have elected to submit annual
dues to pay for RSTAC expenses.
RSTAC members must be citizens of
the United States and represent as
broadly as practicable the various
segments of the railroad and rail shipper
industries. They may not be full-time
employees of the United States.
According to revised guidance issued by
the Office of Management and Budget,
it is permissible for federally registered
lobbyists to serve on advisory
committees, such as RSTAC, as long as
they do so in a representative capacity,
rather than an individual capacity. See
Revised Guidance on Appointment of
Lobbyists to Fed. Advisory Comms.,
Bds., & Comm’ns, 79 FR 47482 (Aug. 13,
2014). Members of RSTAC are
appointed to serve in a representative
capacity.
Each RSTAC member is appointed for
a term of three years. A member may
serve after the expiration of his or her
term until a successor has taken office.
No member will be eligible to serve in
excess of two consecutive terms.
Due to the upcoming expiration of
two members’ second terms, two large
shipper representative vacancies will
exist on RSTAC. Suggestions for
candidates to fill the vacancies should
be submitted in letter form, identifying
the name of the candidate, providing a
summary of why the candidate is
qualified to serve on RSTAC, and
containing a representation that the
candidate is willing to serve as an
RSTAC member effective immediately
upon appointment. RSTAC candidate
suggestions should be filed with the
Board by October 31, 2019. Members
selected to serve on RSTAC are chosen
at the discretion of the Board Chairman.
Please note that submissions will be
posted on the Board’s website under
Docket No. EP 526 (Sub-No. 13) and can
also be obtained by contacting the Office
of Public Assistance, Governmental
Affairs, and Compliance at RCPA@
stb.gov or (202) 245–0238.

System (NAS). For certain weather
conditions, PIREPs are the only means
of confirmation that forecasted
conditions are occurring. The FAA

pilots in submitting Pilot Weather
Reports into the NAS.
