SUMMARY: The Naval Research Advisory Committee (NRAC) will meet to 
discuss classified information from government organizations. All 
sessions of the meetings, except the NRAC Security, Ethics, and Travel 
Brief on Tuesday, December 5, 2006 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., will be 
devoted to briefings, discussions, and technical examinations of issues 
related to maritime strategy and Department of the Navy plans, 
programs, and objectives. It is envisioned that these discussions will 
enable the NRAC to identify technology gaps where additional science 
and technology investments may be needed to satisfy current and 
projected Navy and Marine Corps requirements.

DATES: The meetings will be held on Tuesday, December 5, 2006, from 
10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Wednesday, December 6, 2006, from 9 a.m.

Tuesday, December 5, 2006 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., the meeting will 
be open to the public.

ADDRESSES: The meetings will be held at the Office of Naval Research, 
Room 1432, The Frances Rothwell Room, Arlington, VA 22203.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Sujata Millick, Program Director, 
Naval Research Advisory Committee, 875 North Randolph Street, 
Arlington, VA 22203-1995, 703-696-4875.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is provided in accordance with 
the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. App. 2). 
All sessions of the meetings, except the NRAC Security, Ethics, and 
Travel Brief on Tuesday, December 5, 2006 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., 
will be devoted to executive sessions that will include discussions and 
technical examinations of information related to forthcoming NRAC 
studies. These briefings and discussions will contain classified 
information that is specifically authorized under criteria established 
by Executive Order to remain classified in the interest of national 
defense and are properly classified pursuant to such Executive Order. 
The classified and non-classified matters to be discussed are so 
inextricably intertwined as to preclude opening any portions of the 
meetings. In accordance with 5 U.S.C. App. 2, section 10(d), the 
Secretary of the Navy has determined in writing that the public 
interest requires that all sessions of the meeting, with the exception 
of the NRAC Security, Ethics, and Travel Brief on Tuesday, December 5, 
2006 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., be closed to the public because the 
sessions will be concerned with matters listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) 
and (4).

    Dated: November 20, 2006.
M.A. Harvison,
Lieutenant Commander, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy, 
Federal Register Liaison Officer.
