accommodate as many people as possible. However, admittance will be 
limited to seating availability. Meetings are also broadcast live with 
open captioning over the internet from the FCC Live Web page at http://www.fcc.gov/live/. The public may submit written comments before the 
meeting to: Walter Johnston, the FCC's Designated Federal Officer for 
Technological Advisory Council by e-mail: [email protected] or 
U.S. Postal Service Mail (Walter Johnston, Federal Communications 
Commission, Room 2-A665, 445 12th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20554). 
Open captioning will be provided for this event. Other reasonable 
accommodations for people with disabilities are available upon request. 
Requests for such accommodations should be submitted via e-mail to 
[email protected] or by calling the Office of Engineering and Technology 
at 202-418-2470 (voice), (202) 418-1944 (fax). Such requests should 
include a detailed description of the accommodation needed. In 
addition, please include your contact information. Please allow at 
least five days advance notice; last minute requests will be accepted, 
but may be impossible to fill.
    Exceptional Circumstances (notice): The notice of this meeting is 
being published on less than 15 days notice due to exceptional 
circumstances. It is critical that the TAC conduct this meeting to 
organize itself and its subgroups as soon as possible in order to 
develop recommendations regarding 4G and other broadband technologies 
that will be deployed beginning next year, as well as developing 
recommendations more generally for job creation in the broadband 
sector. However, the only date this year that all TAC members could 
attend, and at which sufficient meeting space is available at the 
agency, is November 4th. Failure to meet on this date would push this 
important meeting back into 2011 and jeopardize the ability of the TAC 
to fulfill its mission within the time frame sought by the Commission. 
Recognizing the late Federal Register publication, the agency also 
issued a Public Notice of this meeting on Monday, October 25th, in an 
effort to mitigate the late Federal Register publication and as an 
additional way of advising the public of this meeting and their right 
to attend.
