SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Cape Cod National Seashore was
established June 1, 1966, in accordance with 16 U.S.C. 459b-2 et seq.
Section 459b-7 established the Commission to consult with the Secretary
of the Interior, or the Secretary's designee, with respect to matters
relating to the development of the Cape Cod National Seashore, and with
respect to carrying out the provisions of Sections 4 and 5 of the Act
establishing the Seashore.
The Commission is composed of 10 members appointed by the Secretary
of the Interior for 2-year terms, as follows: (a) Six members from
recommendations made by the boards of selectmen of the towns of
Chatham, Eastham, Orleans, Provincetown, Truro and Wellfleet, in the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, one member from the recommendations made
by each such board; (b) one member from recommendations of the county
commissioners of Barnstable County, Commonwealth of Massachusetts; (c)
two members from recommendations of the Governor of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts; and (d) one member appointed at the discretion of the
Secretary.
We are currently requesting nominations for the last of these
categories.
Nominations should be typed and should include a resume providing
an adequate description of the nominee's qualifications, including
information that would enable the Department of the Interior to make an
informed decision regarding meeting the membership requirements of the
Commission and permit the Department of the Interior to contact a
potential member.
Members of the Commission serve without compensation. However,
while away from their homes or regular places of business in the
performance of services for the Commission as approved by the
Designated Federal Officer, members may be allowed travel expenses,
including per diem in lieu of subsistence, in the same manner as
[[Page 29918]]
persons employed intermittently in Government service are allowed such
expenses under 5 U.S.C. 5703.
Individuals who are Federally registered lobbyists are ineligible
to serve on all Federal Advisory Committee Act (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 Special Government
Employees, rather than being appointed to represent a particular
interest.
All nominations must be compiled and submitted in one complete
package. Incomplete submissions (missing one or more of the items
described above) will not be considered.
Dated: April 29, 2016.

Chief, Office of Policy.
