Administrative Committee Discussion Items:

1. Briefing on the Rulemaking Calendar. Staff gave a brief review of the Rulemak-ing Calendar, noting that source-specific rules have been identified which will now be pursued inasmuch as they have not been subsumed by VOC RECLAIM;
2. Board Assistant Contracts. The Committee considered and approved the proposed compensation and contracts for Chairman Mikels' Board Assistants, Daniela Fernandez and Nancy Tracy; and,
3. Composition of Evaluation Panel when Contract Award Recommended. In discus-ing the February 9 agenda item, "Award a Contract to Privatize Portions of the Annual Emissions Report Program," the Committee requested that the Board be provided with the names/affiliations of the individuals making up the evaluation panels recommending the award of future contracts. This request will be made again when the recommendations of the Governing Board's Ad Hoc Committee on Affirmative Action are released; however, the Committee encouraged staff to comply with this interim request.
