Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 24, 2013 / Notices
Agenda: The Combatant Commander
of the U.S. Northern Command oversees
the movement and deployment of forces
and materiel necessary to defend the
U.S. under the Posse Comitatus Act, a
unique Federal law of interest to the
Commission. The Commander will
discuss classified information regarding
mission plans and strategies. Due to the
inability of the Commander to respond
to the following questions without also
disclosing classified information, the
meeting is closed to the public. While
the Commander may give an opening
statement, the Commissioners are
primarily interested in his response to
the following types of questions
addressing the Combatant Commander’s
requirements:
1. Describe your requirements and
assets available from the reserve, Guard,
and active duty forces.
2. Are there enough assets to meet the
requirements?
3. Under what planning scenarios do
you encounter shortfalls in assets?
4. How do you establish requirements
[on the Guard/reserve/active duty] for a
given mission?
5. What separates a reserve mission
from other missions?
6. Are there geographic challenges to
missions involving forces from different
components?
7. Are there issues with lines of
authority and the blending of forces
from different components?
8. Do you have comments on how the
Commission might best consider the
current state of requirements for
missions of the Air Force, and how
these should best be resourced going
forward?
9. Do the Services each have a
different approach to readiness
requirements, and does this have an
impact on force mix considerations?
This meeting is being held under the
provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5
U.S.C., Appendix, as amended), the
Government in the Sunshine Act of
1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), and
41 CFR § 102–3.150. Due to difficulties
finalizing the meeting agenda for the
scheduled meeting of September 26,
2013 of the Commission the
requirements of 41 CFR § 102–3.150(a)
were not met. Accordingly, the
Advisory Committee Management
Officer for the DoD, pursuant to 41 CFR
§ 102–3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar
day notification requirement.
Meeting Accessibility: In accordance
with section 10(d) of the FACA, 5 U.S.C.
552b, and 41 CFR § 102–3.155, the DoD
has determined that the meeting
scheduled for September 26, 2013 will
be closed to the public. Specifically, the
VerDate Mar<15>2010
19:49 Sep 23, 2013
Jkt 229001
Director of Administration and
Management, with the coordination of
the DoD FACA Attorney, has
determined in writing that this meeting
will be closed to the public because it
will discuss classified information and
matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1).
Written Comments: Pursuant to 41
CFR §§ 102–3.105(j) and 102–3.140 and
section 10(a)(3) of the FACA, the public
or interested organizations may submit
written comments to the Commission in
response to the stated agenda of the
open and/or closed meeting or the
Commission’s mission. The Designated
Federal Officer (DFO) will review all
submitted written statements before
forwarding to the Commission. Written
comments should be submitted to Mrs.
Marcia Moore, DFO, via facsimile or
electronic mail, the preferred modes of
submission. Each page of the comment
must include the author’s name, title or
affiliation, address, and daytime phone
number. All contact information may be
found in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section.
Background:
The National Commission on the
Structure of the Air Force was
established by the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013
(Pub. L. 112–239). The Department of
Defense sponsor for the Commission is
the Director of Administration and
Management, Mr. Michael L. Rhodes.
The Commission is tasked to submit a
report, containing a comprehensive
study and recommendations, by
February 1, 2014 to the President of the
United States and the Congressional
defense committees. The report will
contain a detailed statement of the
findings and conclusions of the
Commission, together with its
recommendations for such legislation
and administrative actions it may
consider appropriate in light of the
results of the study. The comprehensive
study of the structure of the U.S. Air
Force will determine whether, and how,
the structure should be modified to best
fulfill current and anticipated mission
requirements for the U.S. Air Force in
a manner consistent with available
resources.
The evaluation factors under
consideration by the Commission are for
a U.S. Air Force structure that—(a)
meets current and anticipated
requirements of the combatant
commands; (b) achieves an appropriate
balance between the regular and reserve
components of the Air Force, taking
advantage of the unique strengths and
capabilities of each; (c) ensures that the
regular and reserve components of the
Air Force have the capacity needed to
support current and anticipated
PO 00000

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
homeland defense and disaster
assistance missions in the United States;
(d) provides for sufficient numbers of
regular members of the Air Force to
provide a base of trained personnel from
which the personnel of the reserve
components of the Air Force could be
recruited; (e) maintains a peacetime
rotation force to support operational
tempo goals of 1:2 for regular members
of the Air Forces and 1:5 for members
of the reserve components of the Air
Force; and (f) maximizes and
appropriately balances affordability,
efficiency, effectiveness, capability, and
readiness.

Abstract: The Early Childhood
Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class
of 2010–11 (ECLS–K:2011), sponsored
by the National Center for Education
Statistics (NCES) within the Institute of
Education Sciences (IES) of the U.S.
Department of Education (ED), is a
survey that focuses on children’s early
school experiences beginning with
kindergarten and continuing through
the fifth grade. It includes the collection
of data from parents, teachers, school
administrators, and nonparental care
providers, as well as direct child
assessments. Like its sister study, the
Early Childhood Longitudinal Study,
Kindergarten Class of 1998–99 (ECLS–
K), the ECLS–K:2011 is exceptionally
broad in its scope and coverage of child
development, early learning, and school
progress, drawing together information
from multiple sources to provide rich
data about the population of children
who were kindergartners in the 2010–11
school year. This submission requests
OMBs clearance for (1) a spring 2014
third-grade national data collection; (2)
recruitment for the spring 2015 fourthgrade data collection, and (3) tracking
students for the spring 2016 fifth-grade
data collection.
