Deemed Export Advisory Committee; Notice To Solicit Meeting 
Speakers and Presentations

    The Deemed Export Advisory Committee (DEAC), which advises the 
Secretary of Commerce on deemed export licensing policy, will meet on 
Tuesday, June 19, 2007 from approximately 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The 
DEAC is a Federal Advisory Committee that was established under the 
auspices of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 
app. 2. The meeting location will be Boston, MA, with exact details to 
be announced in a subsequent Federal Register Notice. At this time, the 
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), would 
like to solicit stakeholders from industry, academia and other 
backgrounds to address the DEAC members on June 19 in an open session 
on issues related to deemed exports and, in particular, their 
organizations' perspectives and concerns related to U.S. deemed export 
control policies. Stakeholders are those individuals or organizations 
who have some experience in or knowledge of export control regulations 
and policies, who must apply these rules in the course of normal 
business or whose operations are directly impacted by those export 
regulations and policies mandated by the U.S. government. BIS seeks to 
have an equal number of presenters from industry, academia, and other 
backgrounds. There may be up to three presenters from each group and 
speaking time may be limited to 10 minutes or less per speaker 
depending on the number of interested parties. Speakers may be selected 
on the basis of one or more of the following criteria (not in any order 
of importance): (1) Demonstrated experience in and knowledge of export 
control regulations; (2) demonstrated ability to provide DEAC members 
with relevant information related to deemed export policies and issues; 
(3) the degree to which the organization is impacted by the U.S. 
Government's export policies and regulations; and (4) industry area or 
academic type of institution represented. BIS reserves the right to 
limit the number of participants based on time considerations. For 
planning purposes, BIS requests that (1) that interested parties inform 
BIS of their commitment, via e-mail or telephone call, to address the 
DEAC no later than 5 p.m. EST May 30, 2007, as well as provide a brief 
outline of the topics to be discussed by this same deadline; and, (2) 
that once interested parties receive confirmation of their 
participation at the meeting, they provide either an electronic or 
paper copy of any prepared remarks/presentations no later than 5 p.m. 
EST June 12, 2007. Interested parties may contact Ms. Yvette Springer 
at Yspringer@bis.doc.gov or (202) 482-2813. The purpose of this 
solicitation is only to accept speakers for the June 19, 2007 DEAC 
meeting. However, all members of the public may submit written comments 
to BIS at any time for the DEAC's consideration.

    Dated: May 16, 2007.

Committee Liaison Officer.
