The DHS National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD)
published a notice in today’s Federal Register (78 FR
69433-69434) announcing the next two public listening sessions being held
jointly with OSHA and EPA concerning the President’s Chemical Safety and
Security Executive Order (EO
13650). It also lists the dates for two webinars that will serve a similar
purpose.
The notice provides addresses for the previously
announced listening sessions in Springfield, IL (today, kinda late huh?) and
Orlando, FL (December 11th). The later sessions are not listed.
The notice lists a new (to me anyway) on-line service for
registering for federal government events; www.GovEvents.com.
The notice states
that:
“If you wish to attend any public
listening session and/or a Webinar and/or make an oral comment/presentation at
both the in-person and Webinar listening sessions, you must register at www.GovEvents.com. “
As of this writing (06:05 CST) today’s meeting is
listed (on page 2) but the December 11th session is not. The
November 25th webinar is
listed, but the December 16th webinar is not listed. The registration
process is relatively painless.
NOTE: This site requires registration, but it has some
peculiar rules. Unless you belong to a listed government agency or contractor
you have to select ‘government employee/military’ to get through the
registration process. They really need a ‘private citizen’ listing if they are
going to require the use of this site for meeting registrations. Once
registered in their system you can sign in via LinkedIn or Facebook accounts.
