SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    The Transportation and Related Equipment Technical Advisory 
Committee (TRANSTAC) 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 
Committee 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/or 
industry presentations. The closed session will include the discussion 
of matters determined to be exempt from the open meeting consistent 
with the public participation requirements 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 the 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 
virtual attendance. Individuals interested in participating virtually

Public Participation

    To the extent that time permits, members of the public may present

written materials should be submitted to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#6b3f2a282b090218450f0408450c041d"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="7c283d3f3c1e150f5218131f521b130a">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> prior to the 
start of the meeting. All such materials submitted will be made public 
and, therefore, should not contain confidential information. Meeting 
materials from the open session will be posted to the Technical 
Advisory Committee (TAC) site (<a href="https://tac.bis.doc.gov">https://tac.bis.doc.gov</a>) within 30 days 
after the meeting.

Closure Determination

    The 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.

Meeting Cancellation
