advise the Secretary of Defense on overall DoD management and
governance. The Board provides independent, strategic-level, private

The DFO will adjourn the closed session. The Board will travel to
Defense Logistics Agency Headquarters (DLA) at Fort Belvoir and
reconvene in closed session on February 1 at 2:10 p.m. with a
classified brief on Current Challenges Impacting DoD Supply Chains from
VADM Michelle Skubic, USN, Director, DLA or Mr. Brad Bunn, Vice
Director, DLA. The DFO will adjourn the closed session, and the Board
will return to the Pentagon. The Board will meet in closed session

Meeting Accessibility: In accordance with Section 10(d) of the FACA
and 41 CFR 102-3.155, it is hereby determined that portions of the
February 1-2 meeting of the Board will include classified information
and other matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that, accordingly,
the meeting will be closed to the public on February 1, 2023 from 9:40
to 11:30 a.m., from 12:25 to 1:30 p.m., from 2:10 to 3:45 p.m., and
from 5:30 to 7:35 p.m. This determination is based on the consideration
that it is expected that discussions throughout these periods will
involve classified matters of national security. Such classified
material is so intertwined with the unclassified material that it
cannot reasonably be segregated into separate discussions without
defeating the effectiveness and meaning of these portions of the
meeting. To permit these portions of the meeting to be open to the
public would preclude discussion of such matters and would greatly
diminish the ultimate utility of the Board's findings and
recommendations to the Secretary of Defense and to the Deputy Secretary
of Defense. Pursuant to section 10(a)(1) of the FACA and 41 CFR 102-
3.140, the portion of the meeting on February 2 from 9 a.m. to 12:35
p.m. is open to the public via teleconference. Persons desiring to
attend the public session are required to register. To attend the
public session, submit your name, affiliation/organization, telephone
number, and email contact information to the Board at

Requests to
attend the public session must be received no later than 4 p.m. on
Monday, January 30, 2023. Upon receipt of this information, the Board
will provide further instructions for telephonically attending the
meeting.

and 102-3.140 and section 10(a)(3) of the FACA, the public or
interested organizations may submit written comments or statements to
the Board in response to the stated agenda of the meeting or regarding

[[Page 3729]]
submitted in response to the agenda set forth in this notice by Monday,
