Meeting Accessibility: Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended, and
41 CFR 102-3.155, the Department of the Army has determined that the

Administrative Assistant to the Secretary of the Army, in consultation
with the Office of the Army General Counsel, has determined in writing
that the public interest requires that the 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
portion of the committee's meeting will be closed to the public because
the meeting is likely to disclose matters that are (A) specifically
authorized under criteria established by an Executive order to be kept
secret in the interest of national defense or foreign policy and (B) in
fact properly classified pursuant to such Executive order.
Written Statements: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140,

submitted at any time or in response to the stated agenda of a planned
meeting of the ASB. All written statements must be submitted to the
Designated Federal Officer (DFO) at the address listed above, and this
individual will ensure that the written statements are provided to the
membership for their consideration. Written statements not received at
least 10 calendar days prior to the meeting may not be considered by
the ASB prior to its scheduled meeting. After reviewing written
comments, the DFO may choose to invite the submitter of the comments to
orally present their issue during a future open meeting.
