and sections 102–3.140 and 102–3.150

information operations activities are

the intelligence community from the
Central Intelligence Agency; (6) receive
briefings on how DoD information
operations are addressed in national
security policy development, planning,
and implementation from Mr. John

Meeting Accessibility: In accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 1009(d) and 41 CFR 102–
3.155, the DoD has determined that this
meeting shall be closed to the public.
The Under Secretary of Defense (Policy),
in consultation with the DoD FACA
Attorney, has determined in writing that
this meeting be closed to the public
because the discussions fall under the
purview of 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and are
so inextricably intertwined with
unclassified material that they cannot
reasonably be segregated into separate
discussions without disclosing
classified material.
Written Statements: In accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 1009(a)(3) and 41 CFR
102–3.105(j) and 102–3.140(c), the

individual comments pertain to a
specific topic being discussed at a
planned meeting, then these statements
must be submitted no later than five
business days prior to the meeting in
question. The DFO will review all
submitted written statements and
provide copies to all members.
