ACTION: Committee Management; Notice
of Closed Federal Advisory Committee
Meeting.
AGENCY:
The Aviation Security
Advisory Committee (ASAC) will meet
in Arlington, VA. This meeting will be
closed to the public.

Officer, Transportation Security
Administration (TSA–28), 601 South

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Meeting Summary
Notice of this meeting is given under
section 10(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. (Pub. L.
92–463). The Aviation Security
Advisory Committee (ASAC) provides
advice and makes recommendations to
the Secretary of Homeland Security, via
the Administrator of TSA, for approving
civil aviation security measures.
The ASAC will meet to receive a
classified briefing on threat intelligence
related to TSA’s prohibited items list.
The ASAC also will receive a briefing
on TSA risk-based initiatives pertaining
to passenger prescreening.
Basis for Closure: In accordance with
section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act, it has been determined
that the meeting requires closure. The
meeting will be closed to the public in
accordance with the provisions set forth
under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1), 552b(c)(3),
552b(c)(7)(E)–(F) and 552b(c)(9)(B), as
amended.
TSA will be providing a classified
(SECRET) briefing to the ASAC on
threat intelligence related to TSA’s
prohibited items list. Specifically, there
will be material presented regarding the
latest viable threats against U.S. aviation
security and how TSA plans to address
those threats using a risk-based security

framework. Properly classified material
is protected from disclosure under 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(1). Further, providing
this information to the public could
provide terrorists with a road map
regarding TSA and DHS plans to
counter their actions, and thus allow
them to take different actions to avoid
counterterrorism measures. Under 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(7)(E)–(F), disclosure of
this information could reveal
investigative techniques and procedures
not generally available to the public,
allowing those with interests against the
United States to circumvent the law,
thereby endangering the life or physical
safety of law enforcement personnel.
Additionally, premature disclosure of
this information would be likely to
significantly frustrate the successful
implementation of measures designed to
counter terrorist acts. See, 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(9)(B).
The ASAC also will receive a briefing
on TSA risk-based initiatives pertaining
to passenger prescreening, which will
include lessons learned from existing
screening procedures, enhanced
security and improved traveler
experience that may be realized by new
risk-based initiatives, and screening
techniques associated with such
initiatives. The briefing will include
sensitive security information, as that
term is defined under 49 U.S.C. 114 (r)
and 49 CFR part 1520. Sensitive security
information includes information that
would be detrimental to the security of
transportation, and may not be
disclosed to the general public.
Accordingly, this portion of the meeting
is closed under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(3).
Further, premature public disclosure
about this initiative would be likely to
significantly frustrate implementation of
a proposed agency action within the
meaning of 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B).
Closure of the April 22, 2013, ASAC
meeting is warranted under 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(1), (c)(3), (c)(7)(E)–(F) and
(c)(9)(B).
Accordingly, this meeting will be
closed to the public.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on April 3,
2013.

Industry Engagement.
