SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NIAC is established under section 10 of
E.O. 13231 issued on October 16, 2001, continued and amended under the
authority of E.O. 14048, dated September 30, 2021. Notice of this
meeting is given under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), 5
U.S.C. appendix (Pub. L. 92-463). The NIAC provides the President,
through the Secretary of Homeland Security, advice on the security and
resilience of the Nation's critical infrastructure sectors.
Agenda: The National Infrastructure Advisory Council will meet in
an open session on Monday, September 26, 2022 from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00
p.m. ET to discuss NIAC activities. The open session will include: (1)
a period for public comment; (2) a discussion on The Infrastructure
Investment and Jobs Act/Bipartisan Infrastructure Law; and (3) a
roundtable discussion on potential study topics and subcommittees.
The council will meet in a closed session from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30
p.m. ET during which time senior Government intelligence officials will
provide a classified threat briefing concerning threats to the Nation's
critical infrastructure and engage NIAC members in follow-on
discussions.
Basis for Closure: In accordance with section 10(d) of FACA and 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(1), The Government in the Sunshine Act, it has been
determined that a portion of the agenda requires closure, as the
disclosure of the classified information that will be discussed would
not be in the public interest.
The agenda item includes a classified threat briefing and
discussion, at which time senior Government intelligence officials will
discuss information concerning threats to the Nation's critical
Infrastructure with NIAC members. This briefing is anticipated to be
classified at the secret level. Public disclosure of these threats, as
well as vulnerabilities and mitigations, is a risk to the Nation's
infrastructure security posture as adversaries could use this
information to do harm. Therefore, this portion of the meeting is
required to be closed pursuant to section 10(d) of FACA and 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(1).
Dated: August 31, 2022.
Celinda E. Moening,
Alternate Designated Federal Officer, National Infrastructure Advisory
Council, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Department
of Homeland Security.
