    The NEMSAC was established pursuant to Section 31108 of the Moving

Federal Advisory Committee Act. The purpose of NEMSAC is to serve as a

    a. The Federal Interagency Committee on Emergency Medical Services 
(FICEMS) on matters relating to EMS issues; and

issues affecting DOT.
    The NEMSAC provides an important national forum for the non-Federal 
deliberation of national EMS issues and serves as a platform for advice 
on DOT's national EMS activities. NEMSAC also provides advice and 
recommendations to the FICEMS. NEMSAC is authorized under Section 31108 
of the MAP-21 Act of 2012, codified at 42 U.S.C. 300d-4.

meeting records and for circulation to NEMSAC members. All prepared 
remarks submitted on time will be accepted and considered as part of 
the record. Any member of the public may present a written statement to
