SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Emerging Technology Technical Advisory Committee (ETTAC)
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 of the Export Control
Reform Act. The purpose of the meeting is to have ETTAC members and
U.S. Government representatives mutually review updated technical data
and policy-driving information that has been gathered.
Agenda
The open session will include open business discussions and
industry presentations. The closed session will include 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
[[Page 31957]]
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.
Open Session Attendance
The open session will be accessible via teleconference.
Registration in advance is required to receive the meeting invite for

decisional changes to the Commerce Control List and the U.S. export
control policies shall be exempt from the provisions relating to public
