	(a)  A committee is active if the committee forwards recommendations from at least two meetings per year to the appropriate regional office of the boards support section.  
	(b)  The joint board may place a committee on an inactive list by committee request or joint board action. The committee may reactivate by holding a meeting and informing the joint board of the committee's active status through committee recommendations.  
	(c)  Committees may merge if each affected committee votes to request merger, and if the joint board determines that the merger should occur, after considering the factors set out in 5 AAC 96.420.  
	(d)  The joint board may merge an inactive committee with an active committee if the joint board gives the committees notice of the proposed merger, if the inactive committee does not express an intention to reactivate or if the committee does not do so within a reasonable time after notice, and if the joint board determines that the merger should occur, after considering the factors in 5 AAC 96.420.  
	(e)  The joint board may dissolve a committee if the committee has been inactive for two years and fails to respond to joint board inquiries about the committee's desire to remain in existence. The joint board may dissolve a committee for failure to act in accordance with the provisions of this chapter and 5 AAC 97.
