Sec.  0.701   Intergovernmental Advisory Committee.

   (a) Purpose and term of operations. The Intergovernmental Advisory Committee
   (IAC) is established to facilitate intergovernmental communication between
   municipal, county, state and tribal governments and the Federal
   Communications Commission. The IAC will commence operations with its first
   meeting convened under this section and is authorized to undertake its
   mission for a period of two years from that date. At his discretion, the
   Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission may extend the IAC's term
   of operations for an additional two years, for which new members will be
   appointed as set forth in paragraph (b) of this section. Pursuant to Section
   204(b) of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, 2 U.S.C. 1534(b), the
   IAC is not subject to, and is not required to follow, the procedures set
   forth in the Federal Advisory Committee Act. 5 U.S.C., App. 2 (1988).

   (b) Membership. The IAC will be composed of the following 15 members (or
   their designated employees): Four elected municipal officials (city mayors
   and city council members); two elected county officials (county
   commissioners or council members); one elected or appointed local government
   attorney; one elected state executive (governor or lieutenant governor);
   three elected state legislators; one elected or appointed public utilities
   or public service commissioner; and three elected or appointed Native
   American tribal representatives. The Chairman of the Commission will appoint
   members through an application process initiated by a Public Notice, and
   will select a Chairman and a Vice Chairman to lead the IAC. The Chairman of
   the Commission will also appoint members to fill any vacancies and may
   replace an IAC member, at his discretion, using the appointment process.
   Members of the IAC are responsible for travel and other incidental expenses
   incurred while on IAC business and will not be reimbursed by the Commission
   for such expenses.

   (c) Location and frequency of meetings. The IAC will meet in Washington, DC
   four times a year. Members must attend a minimum of fifty percent of the
   IAC's yearly meetings and may be removed by the Chairman of the IAC for
   failure to comply with this requirement.

   (d) Participation in IAC meetings. Participation at IAC meetings will be
   limited to IAC members or employees designated by IAC members to act on
   their behalf. Members unable to attend an IAC meeting should notify the IAC
   Chairman a reasonable time in advance of the meeting and provide the name of
   the employee designated on their behalf. With the exception of Commission
   staff and individuals or groups having business before the IAC, no other
   persons may attend or participate in an IAC meeting.

   (e) Commission support and oversight. The Chairman of the Commission, or
   Commissioner designated by the Chairman for such purpose, will serve as a
   liaison between the IAC and the Commission and provide general oversight for
   its activities. The IAC will also communicate directly with the Chief,
   Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau, concerning logistical assistance and
   staff support, and such other matters as are warranted.
