(5 U.S.C. 1001-1014).

However, to facilitate distribution of materials to the TRANSTAC
members, the TRANSTAC suggests that members of the public forward their
materials prior to the meeting via email to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#1246535152707b613c767d713c757d64"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="3a6e7b797a585349145e5559145d554c">[email protected]</span></a>. Material
submitted by the public will be made public; therefore, submissions

Closure Determination
A Senior Advisor, performing the Non-Exclusive Functions and Duties
of the Chief Financial Officer and Assistant Secretary for
Administration, with the concurrence of the delegate of the General
Counsel, formally determined, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 1009(d), that the
portion of the meeting dealing with pre-decisional changes to the
Commerce Control List and the U.S. export control policies shall be
exempt from the provisions relating to public meetings found in 5
U.S.C. 1009(a)(1) and 1009(a)(3). The remaining portions of the meeting
will be open to the public. 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.
Meeting Cancellation
If the meeting is cancelled, a cancellation notice will be posted
on the TAC website at: <a href="https://tac.bis.doc.gov">https://tac.bis.doc.gov</a>.
Kevin Coyne,
Committee Liaison Officer.
