SUMMARY: This notice sets forth the schedule and summary agenda for the

Destruction. In accordance with Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory 
Committee Act, Public Law 92-463, as amended [5 U.S.C., Appendix II 
(1982)], it has been determined that this Advisory Panel meeting 
concerns matters listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b (c)(1)(1988); accordingly, the 
bulk of the meeting will be closed to the public. A small portion of 
the meeting will be open, however, to facilitate public comment.

DATE: June 9, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Room 802, RAND, Suite 800, 1333 H Street, NW, Washington, DC

meeting will be open to the public from 4:45 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. This 
meeting will include classified briefings on the threat of domestic WMD 
terrorist attacks. Time will be allocated as noted above for public 
comments by individuals or organizations. Due to unexpected 
requirements to amend the meeting's agenda with classified briefings, 
the posting of this meeting in the Federal Register falls within the 
normal 15 day notice period.
