Materials and Equipment Technical Advisory Committee; Notice of
Partially Closed Meeting
The Materials and Equipment Technical Advisory Committee will meet
on November 7, 2024, 10:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, in
the Herbert C. Hoover Building, Room 3884, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW,
Washington, DC (enter through Main Entrance on 14th Street between
Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenues). The Committee advises and
assists the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) and other Federal
officials and agencies with respect to actions designed to carry out
the policy set forth in section 1752(1)(A) of the Export Control Reform
Act. The purpose of the meeting is to have Committee members and U.S.
Government representatives mutually review updated technical data and
policy-driving information that has been gathered.
Agenda
Open Session
1. Opening Remarks and Introduction by BIS Senior Management.
2. Presentation: Overview of Livingston International.
3. Presentation: Hydraulic Institute Valve Association.
4. Public comments and Proposals.
Closed Session
5. Discussion of matters determined to be exempt from the open
meeting and public participation requirements found in sections
1009(a)(1) and 1009(a)(3) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA)
(5 U.S.C. 1001-1014). The exemption is authorized by section 1009(d) of
the FACA, which permits the closure of advisory committee meetings, or
portions thereof, if the head of the agency to which the advisory
committee reports determines such meetings may be closed to the public
in accordance with subsection (c) of the Government in the Sunshine Act
(5 U.S.C. 552b(c)). In this case, the applicable provisions of 5 U.S.C.
552b(c) are subsection 552b(c)(4), which permits closure to protect
trade secrets and commercial or financial information that is
privileged or confidential, and subsection 552b(c)(9)(B), which permits
closure to protect information that would be likely to significantly
frustrate implementation of a proposed agency action were it to be
disclosed prematurely. The closed session of the meeting will involve
committee discussions and guidance regarding U.S. Government strategies
and policies.
The open session will be accessible via teleconference. To join the
conference, submit inquiries to Ms. Betty Lee at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#c280a7b6b6bbec8ea7a782a0abb1eca6ada1eca5adb4"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b4f6d1c0c0cd9af8d1d1f4d6ddc79ad0dbd79ad3dbc2">[email protected]</span></a>.
