SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given under 
Section 10(a) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Public Law 
92-463 (5 U.S.C. App.) requires each FACA committee meeting to be open 
to the public.
    The HSAC provides organizationally independent, strategic, timely, 
specific, and actionable advice and recommendations for the 
consideration of the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security 
on matters related to homeland security. The Council is comprised of 
leaders of local law enforcement, first responders, state and local 
government, the private sector, and academia.
    The HSAC will meet in open session between 1:45 p.m. and 3:45 p.m. 
The HSAC will receive observations and remarks from DHS senior 
leadership, and swear in new HSAC members. Members will discuss the 
following: Improving Security and Resilience of Cyberspace and Critical 
Infrastructure, the Homeland Security strategic environment, trade and 
travel facilitation, and performance improvement. Members will also 
receive a report from the HSAC Faith-based Security and Communications 
Subcommittee.
    The HSAC will meet in closed session between 4 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. 
to receive sensitive operational information from senior DHS 
leadership. This information regards threats to our homeland, 
specifically operational updates on the Transportation Security 
Administration's (TSA) aviation security program, immigration 
enforcement efforts, and ongoing domestic efforts towards countering 
violent extremism.
    Basis for Partial-Closure: In accordance with Section 10(d) of the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, this meeting has been determined to 
require partial-closure. The disclosure of the information relayed 
would be detrimental to the public interest for the following reasons:
    The HSAC will receive briefings on the current threat environment 
from DHS officials as well as operational updates for the 
Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) aviation security 
program, and immigration enforcement efforts. This will include lessons 
learned and enhanced security measures associated with operations and 
management. Public disclosure of this information would provide 
terrorists and other adversaries with guidelines to thwart the 
Department's strategic initiatives. Under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B), 
disclosure of these techniques and procedures could frustrate the 
successful implementation of protective measures designed to keep our 
country safe. Members will also be provided a briefing from DHS 
officials on countering violent extremism (CVE) efforts being made

information could reveal investigative techniques and procedures not 
generally available to the public, allowing terrorists and those with 
interests against the United States to circumvent the law.
    The closed session briefings involve information that, if publicly 
disclosed, will likely inhibit the government's ability to implement 
potential changes to aviation security and internal DHS management 
directives. The meeting will address current threats to our homeland 
security, the strategic implementation plan to counter extremism 
domestically, and provide an operational overview of the Transportation 
Security Administration's (TSA) aviation security as well as 
immigration enforcement efforts. These briefings will concern matters 
sensitive to homeland security within the meaning of 5 U.S.C. 
552b(c)(7)(E) and (c)(9)(B).
