Agenda
Public Session
1. Welcome and introductions
2. Working group reports
3. Open business
4. Industry Presentations
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 disclose
information the premature disclosure of which would be likely to
significantly frustrate implementation of a proposed agency action. 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
