Advisory Panel to the United States Section of the North Pacific 
Anadromous Fish Commission; Notice of a Closed Meeting

    The Advisory Panel to the United States Section of the North 
Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission will meet on October 26, 2003, at 
the Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. This session will 
involve discussion of the Eleventh Annual Meeting of the North Pacific 
Anadromous Fish Commission, to be held on October 26-31, 2003, in 
Honolulu, Hawaii. The discussion will begin at 8 a.m. and is closed to 
the public.
    The members of the Advisory Panel will examine various options for 
the U.S. position at the Eleventh Annual Meeting. These considerations 
must necessarily involve review of sensitive matters, the premature 
disclosure of which would be likely to significantly frustrate 
implementation of proposed State Department action and U.S. 
participation at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the determination has 
been made to close the 8:00 a.m. meeting pursuant to section 10(d) of 
the Federal Advisory Committee Act and 5 U.S.C. 552(c)(9).
    Requests for further information on the meeting should be directed 
to Dr. Dorothy Zbicz, Office of Marine Conservation (OES/OMC), Room 
5806, U.S. Department of State, Washington, DC 20520-7818. Dr. Zbicz 
can be reached by telephone on (202) 647-3073 or by FAX (202) 736-7350.

David A. Balton,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Oceans and Fisheries, Department of 
State.
