for ensuring the future reliability, safety,
security, and relevance of the nuclear
weapons stockpile for the 21st century;
examine the DoD role in defining needs
in the nuclear weapons stockpile and
recommend changes in institutional
arrangements to ensure an appropriate
DoD role; assess progress towards the
goal of an integrated new triad of strike
capabilities (nuclear, advanced
conventional, and non-kinetic) within
the new triad of strike, defense and
infrastructure; examine a wide range of
alternative institutional arrangements
that could provide for more efficient
management of the nuclear enterprise;
examine approaches to evolving the
stockpile with weapons that are simpler
to manufacture and that can be
sustained with a smaller, less complex,
less expensive design, development,
certification and production enterprise;
and examine plans to transform the
nuclear weapons production complex to
provide a capability to respond
promptly to changes in the threat
environment with new designs or
designs evolved with previously tested
nuclear components.
Due to scheduling difficulties, there is
insufficient time to provide timely
notice required by Section 10(a) of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act and
Subsection 102–3.150(b) of the GSA
Final Rule on Federal Advisory
Committee Management, 41 CFR part

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
mission of the Defense Science Board is
to advise the Secretary of Defense and
the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology & Logistics on
scientific and technical matters as they
affect the perceived needs of the
Department of Defense. Specifically, the
Task Force’s focus will be to evaluate
force protection in the context of post
major combat operations that have been
conducted in Iraq and Afghanistan. In
the operations, loss of national
treasure—military and civilian, U.S. and
other nations—has resulted from actions
executed by non-state and rogue actors.
The threat and capabilities these
insurgent, terrorist and criminal actions
present post a most serious challenge to
our ability to achieve unified action.
In accordance with section 10(d) of
the Federal Advisory Committee Act,
Pub. L. 92–463, as amended (5 U.S.C.
App. 2), it has been determined that
these Defense Science Board Task Force
meetings concern matters listed in 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that, accordingly,
these meetings will be closed to the
public.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The
mission of the Defense Science Board is
to advise the Secretary of Defense and
the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology & Logistics on
scientific and technical matters as they
affect the perceived needs of the
Department of Defense. At these
meetings, the Defense Science Board
Task Force will consider the entire
spectrum of intervention objects,
including deterrence, dissuasion,
remote predetonation, remote
disarming, elimination of sources and/
or manufacturing facilities, discovery
and remove of critical personnel,
discovery and removal of employed
devices, or anything else that has the
end effect of either lowing the value or
raising the cost of employing IEDs as an
insurgent or terrorist weapons of choice.
The Task Force will have four primary
objectives: assess the current state of the
art of allied forces in countering
adversary use of IEDs in operations such
as OIF; recommend a mid-to-long term
set of integrated activities aimed at
improving the state of the art in
reducing the effect of IEDs over the next
three to ten years; provide
recommendations on short term (over
the next six months to three years)
incremental improvements in U.S.
forces’ ability to counter or reduce the
effectiveness of IEDs, and identify any
synergies that may exist between
current counter-IED and countermine
efforts.
In accordance with section 10(d) of
the Federal Advisory Committee Act,
Public Law 92–463, as amended (5
U.S.C. App. 2), it has been determined
that these Defense Science Board Task
Force meetings concern matters listed in
5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that,
accordingly, these meetings will be
closed to the public.
