DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Navy
Naval Research Advisory Committee; Closed Meeting
Pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5
U.S.C. App. 2), notice is hereby given that the Naval Research Advisory
Committee Panel to Review the Department of the Navy Science and
Technology Program will meet on December 11, 12, and 13, 1995, at the
Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, DC. The meeting will commence at
9:00 a.m. and terminate at 5:30 p.m. on December 11 and 12; and
commence at 8:30 a.m. and terminate at 3:00 p.m. on December 13, 1995.
All sessions of the meeting will be closed to the public.
The purpose of the meeting is to provide an assessment of the
Department of the Navy Science and Technology Program, make
recommendations on how to best posture the Department to be a world
class customer of science and technology innovation, and determine
whether the Department's execution philosophy and management structure
allow for the most effective utilization of innovation. The agenda will
consist of Executive Sessions devoted to writing a report of their
findings and recommendations. The Executive Sessions will include
discussions of previously briefed material from the Joint Chiefs of
Staff, Department of Defense, Department of the Army, Department of the
Air Force, Advanced Research Projects Agency, and internal Department
of the Navy sources. These discussions will contain (1) classified
information that is specifically authorized under criteria established
by Executive Order to be kept secret in the interest of national
defense and are in fact properly classified pursuant to such Executive
Order; and (2) sensitive Department of Defense information that would
be likely to significantly frustrate proposed agency action if it is
disclosed to the public prematurely. The classified, sensitive, and
non-classified matters to be discussed are so inextricably intertwined
as to preclude opening any portion of the meeting.
Accordingly, the Under Secretary of the Navy has determined in
writing that the public interest requires that all sessions of the
meeting be closed to the public because they will be concerned with
matters listed in section 552b(c)(1) and (9)(B) of title 5, United
States Code.
This Notice is being published late because the Federal Government
furlough caused administrative delays which constitute an exceptional
circumstance, not allowing Notice to be published in the Federal
Register at least 15 days before the date of the meeting.

Mason-Muir, Office of Naval Research, Naval Research Advisory
Committee, 800 North Quincy Street, Arlington, VA 22217-5660, Telephone
