**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for FY 2001 (Pub. L. 106-554) requires each Federal agency to publish guidelines for ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of the information its disseminates to the public. Agency guidelines must conform to government-wide guidelines issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). In compliance with this statutory requirement and OMB instructions, the Committee has posted  its Information Quality Guidelines on its Web site ( *http://www.jwod.gov* ).

The Guidelines describe the Committee's procedures for ensuring the quality of information that it disseminates and the procedures by which an affected person may obtain correction of information disseminated by the Committee that does not comply with the Guidelines. Persons who cannot access the Guidelines through the Internet may request a paper or electronic copy by contacting the Committee.

Sheryl D. Kennerly,

Director, Information Management.
