SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board Task Force on Defense Technology 
Base

[[Page 53598]]

of the 21st Century will meet in closed session on October 29-30, 1997 
at Strategic Analysis, Inc., 4001 N. Fairfax Drive, Arlington, 
Virginia.
    The mission of the Defense Science Board is to advise the Secretary 
of Defense through the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
Technology on scientific and technical matters as they affect the 
perceived needs of the Department of Defense. At this meeting the Task 
Force will address the issues involved in assuring that the U.S. has 
adequate/appropriate technology base from which to develop sustained 
military superiority for the 21st century; such a base includes 
technology developed by DoD, but also access to technology developed 
elsewhere as well as an assured stream of scientists and engineers that 
will develop technology and build military materiel. Many internal and 
external changes influence DoDs options.
    In accordance with section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act, Pub. L. 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. II, (1994)), it has been 
determined that this DSB Task Force meeting concerns matters listed in 
5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1), and that accordingly this meeting will be closed 
to the public.

    Dated: October 8, 1997.
L.M. Bynum,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
