COMMISSION ON CIVIL RIGHTS


Agenda and Notice of Public Meetings of the South Dakota Advisory 
Committee

AGENCY: Commission on Civil Rights.

ACTION: Announcement of meeting; postponement of meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of the 
rules and regulations of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights 
(Commission), and the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), that an 
emergency telephonic meeting of the South Dakota Advisory Committee to 
the Commission was convened at 2 p.m. on Thursday, August 18, 2016. The 
purpose of the emergency meeting was to discuss and vote to postpone 
briefing meeting on the ``Subtle Effects of Racism in South Dakota,'' 
scheduled for Thursday, August 25, 2016 in Aberdeen, SD. The reason for 
postponing the August 25 meeting is due to a police shooting in 
Aberdeen that is under state investigation.

DATES: The meeting scheduled for August 25, 2016 is postponed. A new 
date has not been set.

    Additional notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of 
the rules and regulations of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights 
(Commission), and the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), that the 
briefing meeting of the South Dakota Advisory Committee to the 
Commission scheduled for 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, August 25, 2016, in the 
Community Room on the 1st Floor of the Aberdeen Public Safety Building, 
114 2nd Avenue SE., Aberdeen, SD 57401, HAS BEEN POSTPONED by a vote of 
the SD State Advisory Committee. The vote to postpone was due to a 
recent critical incident in the Aberdeen community. A subsequent 
meeting date has not been scheduled.
    Exceptional Circumstance: Pursuant to the Federal Advisory 
Committee Management Regulations (41 CFR 102-3.150), the notice for 
this meeting is given less than 15 calendar days prior to the meeting 
due to exceptional circumstances. Given the exceptional urgency of the 
events, the agency and advisory committee deemed it important for the 
advisory committee to meet on the date given to discuss postponement of 
the August 25 briefing.

    Dated: August 24, 2016.
Brian Walch,
Director, Communications and Public Engagement.
