FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lieutenant Commander Travis Haire,
USN, Executive Secretary to the Board
of Visitors, Office of the Superintendent,
U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD
21402–5000, 410–293–1503.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice of meeting is provided per the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, as
amended (5 U.S.C. App.). The executive
session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m.
to 12:00 p.m. on June 11, 2012, will
consist of discussions of law
enforcement investigations into
allegations of criminal activity, new and
pending administrative/minor
disciplinary infractions and nonjudicial
punishments involving the Midshipmen
attending the Naval Academy to include
but not limited to individual honor/
conduct violations within the Brigade,
and personnel issues. The discussion of
such information cannot be adequately
segregated from other topics, which
precludes opening the executive session
of this meeting to the public.
Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy
has determined in writing that the
meeting shall be partially closed to the
public because the discussions during
the executive session from 11:00 a.m. to
12:00 p.m. will be concerned with
matters coming under sections
552b(c)(5), (6), and (7) of title 5, United
States Code.
Dated: May 17, 2012.
J.M. Beal,
Lieutenant Commander, Office of the Judge
Advocate General, U.S. Navy, Federal
Register Liaison Officer.
