SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NSTAC advises the President on issues 
and problems related to implementing national security and emergency 
preparedness telecommunications policy. Notice of this meeting is given 
under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Public Law 92-463, as 
amended (5 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq.).
    At the upcoming meeting, between 1:15 p.m. and 2:30 p.m., the NSTAC 
will receive comments from government stakeholders, and discuss NSTAC 
work on legislation and regulation, research and development, and 
outreach. This portion of the meeting will be open to the public.
    Between 2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m., the NSTAC will receive briefings from 
the Department of Defense, the Acting Assistant to the President for 
Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, and the Department of Treasury. 
The NSTAC will discuss impacts of the global economy on communications, 
cyber security and network security. This portion of the meeting will 
be closed to the public.
    Basis For Closure: Briefings from the Department of Defense, the 
Acting Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and 
Counterterrorism, and the Department of Treasury, as well as 
discussions on cyber security and network security will likely involve 
sensitive infrastructure information concerning system threats and 
explicit physical/cyber vulnerabilities related to current 
communications capabilities. Public disclosure of such information 
would heighten awareness of potential vulnerabilities. Pursuant to 
Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92-463, 
as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq.), the Department has determined 
that this discussion will concern matters which, if disclosed, would be 
likely to significantly frustrate the implementation of a proposed 
agency action. Accordingly, the relevant portion of this meeting will 
be closed to the public pursuant to the authority set forth in 5 U.S.C. 
552b(c)(4).

Lawrence Hale,
Acting Director, National Communications System.
