DEPARTMENT OF STATE
[Public Notice 2080]
Defense Trade Advisory Group Partially Closed Meeting
The Defense Trade Advisory Group (DTAG) will meet from 10:00-4:45
P.M. on Thursday, October 6, 1994 in the Loy Henderson Conference Room,
U.S. Department of State, 2201 C Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20520.
This advisory committee consists of private sector defense trade
specialists who advise the Department on policies, regulations, and
technical issues affecting defense trade.
The Federal Register notice of June 30, 1994 announced that the
October 6 DTAG meeting would be an open meeting. After setting the
agenda, State Department officials and the DTAG officers found it
necessary to close the afternoon portions of the meeting.
The open session, which will be made up of all sessions preceding
the lunch break, will include speakers from the Bureau of Political-
Military Affairs and reports on DTAG Working Group progress,
accomplishments, and future projects. Members of the public may attend
the open session as seating capacity allows, and will be permitted to
participate in the discussion in accordance with the Chairman's
instructions.
As access to the Department of State is controlled, persons wishing
to attend the meeting must notify the DTAG Executive Secretariat by
Friday, September 30, 1994. Each person should provide his or her name,
company or organizational affiliation, date of birth, and social
security number to the DTAG Secretariat at telephone number (202) 647-
4231 of fax number (202) 647-4232 (Attention: Eva Chesteen). Attendees
must carry a valid photo ID with them. They should enter the building
through the C-Street diplomatic entrance (21st and C Streets, NW.),
where Department personnel will direct them to the Loy Henderson
auditorium.
Following the open portion of the meeting, briefings which the
Department of State will arrange for DTAG members will involve
discussions of classified information pursuant to Executive Order
12356. The disclosure of classified and/or proprietary information
essential to formulating U.S. defense trade policies would
substantially undermine U.S. defense trade relations with foreign
competitors. Therefore, these segments of the meeting will be closed to
the public, pursuant to section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee
Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B).
For further information, contact Linda Lum of the DTAG Secretariat,
U.S. Department of State, Office of Export Control Policy (PM/EXP),
Room 2422 Main State, Washington, DC 20520-2422. She may be reached at
telephone number (202) 647-4231 or fax number (202) 647-4232.
Dated: September 13, 1994.
William Pope,
Acting Deputy Assistant, Secretary for Export Controls, Bureau of
Political-Military Affairs.
