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 Special Study Panel to Review the Department of the Navy
Science and Technology Program will
[[Page 48973]]
meet on October 11 and 12, 1995. The session on October 11 will be held
at the Pentagon, Arlington, Virginia; the session on October 12 will be
held at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, Bethesda,
Maryland. The meeting will commence at 9:00 a.m. and terminate at 5:00
p.m. on October 11 and 12, 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
include briefings and discussions on perspectives from internal
Department of the Navy sources, as well as the Department of the Air
Force, the Department of the Army, and the Advanced Research Projects
Agency. These briefings and discussions will involve sensitive
Department of Defense information. Premature public disclosure of this
information would be likely to significantly frustrate proposed agency
action. The information involved is specifically authorized under
criteria established by Executive order to be withheld from the public
if the agency determines it to be in their best interest. The sensitive
matters to be discussed are so inextricably intertwined as to preclude
opening any portion of the meeting.
Accordingly, the 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)(9)(B) of title 5, United States Code.
For further information concerning these meetings contact: Ms.
Diane Mason-Muir, Office of Naval Research, Ballston Center Tower One,
800 North Quincy Street, Arlington, VA 22217-5660, Telephone Number:
(703) 696-4870.
