SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Purpose of Meeting: To obtain, review and evaluate classified 
information related to the Committee's mission to advise on technology 
security, combating weapons of mass destruction (C-WMD), counter 
terrorism and counter proliferation.
    Agenda: Beginning at 12:30 p.m., January 31, and through the end of 
the meeting on February 1, the committee will receive SECRET-level 
Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (C-WMD) current operations 
briefings from the Department of Defense and the Intelligence 
Community. The committee will also hold classified discussions on C-
WMD-related national security matters as they formulate their yearly 
work plan.
    Meeting Accessibility: Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended, and 
41 CFR Sec.  102-3.155, the Department of Defense has determined that 
the meeting shall be closed to the public. The Under Secretary of 
Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, in consultation with 
the DoD FACA Attorney, has determined in writing that this meeting be 
closed to the public because the discussions fall under the purview of 
Title 5, United States Code, Section Sec.  552b(c)(1) and are 
inextricably intertwined with the unclassified material which cannot 
reasonably be segregated into separate discussions without disclosing 
secret material.
    Committee's Designated Federal Officer or Point of Contact: Mr. 
William Hostyn, GS-15, DoD, Defense Threat Reduction Agency/SP-ACP, 
8725 John J. Kingman Road, MS 6201, Fort Belvoir, VA 22060-6201. Email: 
[email protected]. Phone: (703) 767-4453. Fax: (703) 767-4206.
    Written Statements: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140, 
the public or interested organizations may submit written statements to 
the membership of the Committee at any time or in response to the 
stated agenda of a planned meeting. Written statements should be 
submitted to the Committee's Designated Federal Officer; the Designated 
Federal Officer's contact information can be obtained from the GSA's 
FACA Database--https://www.fido.gov/facadatabase/public.asp.
    Written statements that do not pertain to a scheduled meeting of 
the Committee may be submitted at any time. However, if individual 
comments pertain to a specific topic being discussed at a planned 
meeting then these statements must be submitted no later than five 
business days prior to the meeting in question. The Designated Federal 
Officer will review all submitted written statements and provide copies 
to all committee members.
    Due to changing requirements beyond the control of the Threat 
Reduction Advisory Committee or its Designated Federal Officer, the 
Committee was unable to process the amended Federal Register notice for 
the January 31 through February 1, 2012 meeting of the Threat Reduction 
Advisory Committee as required by 41 CFR 102-3.150(a). Accordingly, the 
Acting Advisory Committee Management Officer for the Department of 
Defense, pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar day 
notification requirement.

    Dated: January 13, 2012.
Aaron Siegel,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
