This notice of meeting is provided per the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. App.).

The proposed closed session from 10:15 a.m. to 2 p.m. will include a discussion of top areas of concern that the Secretary of the Navy should address. Discussion of such information cannot be adequately segregated from other topic, which precludes opening the executive session of this meeting to the public.

Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy has determined in writing that the public interest requires that all sessions of this meeting be closed to the public because it will be concerned with matters listed in sections 552b(c)(5), and (7) of the title 5, United States Code.
