SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Council and Boards are established
under the John D. Dingell, Jr.,
Conservation, Management, and
Recreation Act, March 12, 2019 (Pub. L.
116–9).
The Theodore Roosevelt Genius Prize
Advisory Council (Council) advises the
Secretary of the Interior (Secretary)
regarding the five Theodore Roosevelt
Genius Prize competitions. The Council
is regulated by the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA).
The Prize competitions encourage
technological innovation with the
potential to advance the mission of the
Fish and Wildlife Service in the
following areas of concern: (1)
Preventing wildlife poaching and
trafficking, (2) promoting wildlife
conservation, (3) managing invasive
species, (4) protecting endangered
species, and (5) managing nonlethal
human-wildlife conflict. The enabling
legislation calls for annual cash prizes
up to $100,000 for each of the five
competitions; potential awards could
total $500,000.
The Act establishes five Boards to
help implement the Prizes. These
Boards are responsible for selecting
topics; issuing problem statements,
consulting with Federal stakeholders,
and advising prize winners regarding
opportunities to pilot and implement
winning technologies. Each Board must
be made up of no fewer than nine
members, appointed by the Secretary,
including at least one member who is
expert in the area of concern for that
Board and other members expert in
wildlife conservation and management,
biology, technology development,
engineering, economics, and business
development and management.
The five Boards are established to
focus on technology innovation related
to (1) the prevention of poaching and
wildlife trafficking, (2) the promotion of
wildlife conservation, (3) the
management of invasive species, (4) the
protection of endangered species, and
ADDRESSES:
PO 00000
Frm 00051

Sfmt 4703
(5) the nonlethal management of
human-wildlife conflicts.
Additionally, under the Act, the
Boards have an advisory duty: To
develop recommendations for the
Secretary regarding opportunities for
technological innovation to assist in
addressing the statute’s five areas of
concern. Establishment of the Council
facilitates FACA compliance for the
performance of the Boards’ role advising
the Secretary.
The Secretary will appoint Council
members to serve until the Council is
terminated on December 31, 2023, as is
required by the Act. The Council will
have at least 12 members, and each
Board will have at least 9 members who
may be members of the Council or
experts from outside the Council. The
Council and Boards will meet
approximately two times per year and
will minimize the administrative costs
by encouraging remote participation.
Membership Expertise
We are seeking nominations for
membership of individuals with the
following types of expertise:
• Wildlife trafficking and trade,
• Wildlife conservation and
management,
• Invasive species,
• Endangered species,
• Nonlethal wildlife management,
• Social aspects of human-wildlife
conflict management,
• Biology,
• Technology development,
• Engineering,
• Economics,
• Business development and
management, and
• Any other discipline that the
Secretary determines to be necessary to
achieve the purposes of the Act.
Individuals who are federally
registered lobbyist are ineligible to serve
on all 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 as Special Government
Employees (SGE), rather than being
appointed to represent a particular
interest.
Members of the Council and Boards
appointed as SGEs are subject to
applicable Federal ethics statutes and
regulations, to include applicable
exceptions and exemptions. The
Department will provide materials to
those members serving as SGEs,
explaining their ethical obligations.
