ADDRESSES: Applications should be submitted via email to Joanne Flanders: joanne.flanders@noaa.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Turner, Ocean Exploration Advisory Board, Designated Federal Officer: (859) 327–9661; david.turner@ noaa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: At this time, NOAA is soliciting applications to fill up to two vacancies on the OEAB from individuals demonstrating expertise and experience in areas that include scientific research relevant to ocean exploration, ocean engineering, data science, deep ocean biology, geology, oceanography, marine archaeology, or ocean-science education and communication. NOAA will give particular consideration to applications from Indigenous, Tribal, Native American, Alaska Native, or Native Hawaiian stakeholders from the Alaska or Pacific Ocean basin regions, as such stakeholders’ input will be valuable in generating advice specific to those regions and stakeholders. Individuals with expertise in other NOAA ocean exploration areas are also welcome to apply, as well as representatives of other federal agencies involved in ocean exploration. The OEAB members will serve a three-year term with the possibility of one renewal for an additional three-year term. The Board meets two to three times a year. Composition and Points of View: The OEAB consists of approximately 10 members, including a chair and cochair(s), designated by the NOAA Administrator in accordance with FACA requirements and the terms of the approved OEAB Charter and Balance Plan. OEAB members represent government agencies, the private sector, academic institutions, not-for-profit, and other institutions involved in all facets of ocean exploration—from advanced technology to citizen exploration. As a Federal Advisory Committee, OEAB membership is required to be balanced in terms of viewpoints represented and the functions to be performed as well as including the interest of geographic regions of the country and the diverse sectors of our society. The OEAB was established: To advise the NOAA Administrator on priority areas for survey and discovery; assist the program in the development of a five-year strategic plan for the fields of ocean, marine, and Great Lakes science, exploration, and discovery; annually review the quality and effectiveness of lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 DATES: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:26 Aug 18, 2022 Jkt 256001 the proposal review process established under section 12003(a)(4); and provide other assistance and advice as requested by the Administrator. In addition to advising NOAA leadership, NOAA expects the OEAB to help to define and develop a national program of ocean exploration—a network of U.S. stakeholders and partnerships advancing national priorities for ocean exploration. OEAB members are appointed as Special Government Employees (SGEs) and will be subject to the ethical standards applicable to SGEs. Members are reimbursed for actual and reasonable expenses incurred in performing such duties, including travel costs, but will not be reimbursed for their time. All OEAB members serve at the discretion of the NOAA Administrator. For more information about the OEAB, visit https://oeab.noaa.gov. Although the OEAB reports directly to the NOAA Administrator, it is provided staffing and other support from the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research which is part of the Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR). NOAA Ocean Exploration and Research is the only U.S. federal organization dedicated to exploring the deep ocean and the program: • Explores the ocean to make discoveries of scientific, economic, and cultural value, with priority given to the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone and Extended Continental Shelf; • Promotes technological innovation to advance ocean exploration; • Provides public access to data and information; • Encourages the next generation of ocean explorers, scientists, and engineers; and • Expands the national ocean exploration program through partnerships. For more information about the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research, visit https://oceanexplorer. noaa.gov. Nominations: Interested persons may nominate themselves or third parties. Applications: An application is required to be considered for Board membership, regardless of whether a person is nominated by a third party or self-nominated. The application package must include: (1) the nominee’s full name, title, institutional affiliation, and contact information including mailing address, email address, and telephone number; (2) a resume (maximum length four [4] pages); and (3) a cover letter that includes a description of their qualifications relative to the kinds of advice being solicited by NOAA in this Notice.
