    Current details on the board of visitors may be found at https://www.usna.edu/PAO/Superintendent/bov.php.
    The closed meeting from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on December 4, 2023, 
will consist of discussions of new and pending administrative or minor 
disciplinary infractions and non-judicial punishments involving 
midshipmen attending the Naval Academy to include but not limited to, 
individual honor or conduct violations within the Brigade, the 
disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of 
personal privacy. For this reason, a portion of this meeting will be 
closed to the public, as the discussion of such information cannot be 
adequately segregated from other topics, which precludes opening the 
closed meeting to the public. Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy, 
in consultation with the Department of the Navy General Counsel, has 
determined in writing that the meeting shall be

partially closed to the public because the discussions during the 
closed meeting from 11 a.m. to noon (12 p.m.) will be concerned with 
matters protected under sections 552b(c) (5), (6), and (7) of title 5, 
U.S.C.

meeting is open to the public. Any public attendance at the meeting 
will be governed by prevailing health directives at the United States

days prior the meeting to coordinate access to the meeting.
    Written Statements: Per section 10(a)(3) of the FACA and 41 CFR 
102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140, interested persons may submit a written 
statement for consideration at any time, but should be received by the 
Designated Federal Officer at least five business days prior to the

for their consideration prior to the meeting. Written statements should 
be submitted via mail to 121 Blake Rd., Annapolis, MD 21402. Please 
note that since the Board operates under the provisions of the FACA, as 
amended, all submitted comments and public presentations may be treated 
as public documents and may be made available for public inspection, 
including, but not limited to, being posted on the board website.
