SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The NEMSAC was established pursuant to Section 31108 of the Moving 
Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act of 2012, under the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act. The purpose of NEMSAC is to serve as a 
nationally recognized council of emergency medical services (EMS) 
representatives to provide advice and consult with:
    a. The Federal Interagency Committee on Emergency Medical Services 
(FICEMS) on matters relating to EMS issues; and
    b. The Secretary of Transportation on matters relating to EMS 
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.

II. Agenda

    At the meeting, the agenda will cover the following topics:

 Updates from Federal Emergency Services Liaisons
 Updates on the FICEMS Initiatives
 Updates on NHTSA Initiatives
 Committee Reports

III. Public Participation

    The meeting will be open to the public. Members of the public who 
wish to attend in person must RSVP to the person listed in the FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section with your name and affiliation. The 
U.S. Department of Transportation is committed to providing equal 
access to this meeting for all participants. If you need alternative 
formats or services because of a disability, such as sign language,
