SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On Monday, July 17, 2006, CBP published a Notice in the Federal 
Register (71 FR 40528) stating that Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
is requesting individuals who are interested in serving on the 
Departmental Advisory Committee on Commercial Operations of Customs and 
Border Protection and Related Homeland Security Functions (formerly 
known as the ``Commercial Operations Advisory Committee'' and popularly 
still known as ``COAC'') to apply for appointment.
    This correction concerns the section entitled ``Committee 
Membership,'' specifically, the fourth paragraph of the third column on 
page 40529, which announced that the applicant would serve as a Special 
Government Employee (SGE) and that the applicant would also be required 
to complete a Confidential Financial Disclosure Report (OEG Form 450). 
Because members of the Committee are not considered Federal Government 
employees for any purpose, having them serve in the capacity of an SGE 
is incorrect. Further, there is no requirement to complete a 
Confidential Disclosure Report. Accordingly, this document corrects 
that notice by eliminating this paragraph from the document.

Correction of Publication

    Accordingly, the publication on Monday, July 17, 2006 of the 
Notice, which was the subject of FR Doc. E6-11285, is corrected as 
follows: On page 40529, in the third column, the fourth paragraph under 
the heading ``Committee Membership'' is deleted in its entirety.

    Dated: August 9, 2006.
Lawrence J. Rosenzweig,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Relations, Bureau of Customs and 
Border Protection.
