SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Due to
circumstances beyond the control of the
Designated Federal Officer and the
Department of Defense, the Defense
Science Board was unable to provide
public notification concerning its
meeting on March 23 through 24, 2017,
as required by 41 CFR 102–3.150(a).
Accordingly, the Advisory Committee
Management Officer for the Department
of Defense, pursuant to 41 CFR 102–
3.150(b), waives the 15-calendar day
notification requirement.
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.
The mission of the DSB is to provide
independent advice and
recommendations on matters relating to
the Department of Defense’s (DoD)
scientific and technical enterprise. The
objective of the Long Range Effects 2017
Summer Study Task Force is to explore
new defense systems and technologies
that will enable cost effective power
projection that relies on the use of
longer stand-off distances than current
capabilities. System components may be
deployed on manned or unmanned
platforms with a range of potential
autonomous capabilities. Use of cost
reducing technology and advanced
production practices from defense and
commercial industry may be a major
part of the strategy for deploying
adequate numbers of weapons. The
study should investigate and analyze all
of these areas and recommend preferred
system options. This two-day session
will focus on future capabilities and
architectures for the Department. Day
One briefings will include opening
remarks and expectations for the twoday session from Dr. David Whelan and
Mr. Mark Russell, task force co-chairs; a
briefing on the U.S. Strategic Command
(USSTRATCOM) Future Mission
Concepts, including DoD capability and
resource integration issues, from Mr.
Steve Callicut, USSTRATCOM; a
briefing on Future Naval Capabilities,
including utilization of Navy resources
to address adversary long range strike
capabilities, from VADM John
Richardson, Chief of Naval Operations,
U.S. Navy; a briefing on countering antiaccess systems with longer range and
standoff capabilities from Mr. James
MacStravic, Performing the Duties of the
Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics;

a briefing from Mr. Barry Pike, Program
Executive Officer, Missiles and Space,
U.S. Army, on the utilization of Army
resources to address adversary long
range strike capabilities; a briefing on
the Joint Force Special Operations
Combatant Command Insights for the
Pacific Region from Colonel William
Nagel, Special Operations Command—
Pacific; and a briefing on the operational
programs and planning in the U.S.
Pacific area of operations by Dr. George
Ka’iliwai, U.S. Pacific Command. The
Day Two briefing will be an overview of
DoD’s planning and development of
strategic capabilities across DoD
missions presented by Dr. William
Roper, Director, Strategic Capabilities
Office, Office of the Secretary of
Defense. The remainder of this day will
be the Long Range Effects 2017 Summer
Study Task Force’s four panel break-out
sessions: Architecture; Intelligence,
Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR);
Basing, Delivery, and Weapons;
Command, Control, Communications,
and Cyber. These panels will meet
simultaneously to discuss topics to
analyze in support of the study. The Day
Two will close with discussion of the
four panel’s work.
In accordance with section 10(d) of
the FACA and 41 CFR 102–3.155, the
DoD has determined that the Long
Range Effects 2017 Summer Study Task
Force meeting will be closed to the
public. Specifically, the Under Secretary
of Defense (Acquisition, Technology,
and Logistics), in consultation with the
DoD Office of General Counsel, has
determined in writing that the meeting
will be closed to the public because
matters covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1)
will be considered. The determination is
based on the consideration that it is
expected that discussions throughout
will involve classified matters of
national security concern. Such
classified material is so intertwined
with the unclassified material that it
cannot reasonably be segregated into
separate discussions without defeating
the effectiveness and meaning of the
overall meetings. To permit the meeting
to be open to the public would preclude
discussion of such matters and would
greatly diminish the ultimate utility of
the DSB’s findings and
recommendations to the Secretary of
Defense and to the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology,
and Logistics.
In accordance with section 10(a)(3) of
the FACA and 41 CFR 102–3.105(j) and
102–3.140, interested persons may
submit a written statement for
consideration by the Long Range Effects
2017 Summer Study Task Force
members at any time regarding its

mission or in response to the stated
agenda of a planned meeting.
Individuals submitting a written
statement must submit their statement
to the DSB’s DFO—Ms. Karen D.H.
Saunders, Executive Director, Defense
Science Board, 3140 Defense Pentagon,
Room 3B888A, Washington, DC 20301,

at any point; however, if a written
statement is not received at least 3
calendar days prior to the meeting,
which is the subject of this notice, then
it may not be provided to or considered
by the Long Range Effects 2017 Summer
Study Task Force until the next meeting
of this task force. The DFO will review
all submissions with the Long Range
Effects 2017 Summer Study Task Force
Co-Chairs and ensure they are provided
to Long Range Effects 2017 Summer
Study Task Force members prior to the
end of the two-day meeting on March
24, 2017.
