SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
National Drinking Water Advisory Council: Persons selected for
membership will receive compensation for travel and a nominal daily
compensation while attending meetings. The Council holds two face-to-

Additionally, members may be asked to serve on one of the Council's
workgroups that are formed each year to assist EPA in addressing
specific program issues. These workgroup meetings are held

approximately four times a year, typically, with two meetings by
conference call.
The Council consists of 15 members, including a Chairperson,
appointed by the Deputy Administrator. Five members represent the
general public; five members represent appropriate State and local
agencies concerned with water hygiene and public water supply; and five
members represent private organizations or groups demonstrating an
active interest in the field of water hygiene and public water supply.
The SDWA requires that at least two members of the Council represent
small, rural public water systems. On December 15 of each year, five
members complete their appointment. Therefore, this notice solicits
names to fill the five vacancies with appointed terms ending on
December 15, 2007.
Nomination of a Member: Any interested person or organization may
nominate qualified individuals for membership. Nominees should be
identified by name, occupation, position, address and telephone number.

providing the nominee's background, experience and qualifications.
