Summary
Notice of this meeting is given under
section 10(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act, (FACA), 5 U.S.C. App.
(Pub. L. 92–463). The Aviation Security
Advisory Committee operates under the
authority of 6 U.S.C. 451 and provides
advice and recommendations for
improving aviation security measures to
the Administrator of TSA.
For the closed portion of the meeting,
the ASAC will receive SSI briefings on
aviation threat intelligence and changes
to passenger screening procedures. The
second portion of the meeting will be
open to the public and will focus on
items listed in the ‘‘Meeting Agenda’’
section below. Members of the public
and all non-ASAC members and staff
must register in advance with their full
name to attend. Due to space constraints
the meeting is limited to 75 people,
including ASAC members and staff, on
a first to register basis. Attendees are
required to present government-issued
photo identification to verify identity.
In addition, members of the public
must make advance arrangements, as
stated below, to present oral or written
statements specifically addressing
issues pertaining to the items listed in
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:29 Sep 10, 2014
Jkt 232001
the ‘‘Meeting Agenda’’ section below.
The public comment period will begin
at 11:30 a.m., depending on the meeting
progress. Speakers are requested to limit
their comments to three minutes.
Contact the person listed in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section
no later than September 26, 2014, to
register to attend the meeting and/or to
present oral or written statements
addressing issues pertaining to the items
listed in the ‘‘Meeting Agenda’’ section
below. Anyone in need of assistance or
a reasonable accommodation for the
meeting should contact the person listed
in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section.
Basis for Closure
In accordance with sec. 10(d) of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), TSA has determined that this
meeting requires partial closure. The
meeting will be closed to the public in
accordance with the provisions set forth
under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(3), (c)(7)(E)–(F)
and (c)(9)(B), as amended.
The briefing will include SSI, as that
term is defined under 49 U.S.C. 114(r)
and 49 CFR part 1520.2 SSI includes
information that if released would be
detrimental to the security of
transportation, and therefore may not be
disclosed to the general public.
Accordingly, this portion of the meeting
is closed under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(3).
During the course of the partially closed
meeting the ASAC will be providing SSI
briefings on aviation threat intelligence
and recent passenger screening
procedure changes. There will be
material presented regarding the latest
viable threats against U.S. aviation
security and how the TSA plans to
address those threats using a risk-based
security framework. Further, providing
this information to the public could
provide terrorists with a road map
regarding TSA’s and DHS’s 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). Accordingly,
partial closure of the October 3, 2014,
