Jkt 262001
Agenda: The meeting will begin on
Wednesday, April 24, 2024 at 8 a.m. Ms.
Betsy Kowalski, DSB DFO, and Dr. Eric
Evans, DSB Chair, will provide opening
remarks and a classified overview of the
objectives of the 2024 Summer Study on
Advanced Capabilities for Potential
Future Conflict. Next, the DSB will meet
to discuss classified strategies that best
enable DoD’s continued development of
symmetric and asymmetric capabilities
that will characterize future conflicts,
including periodic breaks. The meeting
will adjourn at 5 p.m. On Thursday,
April 25, 2024, starting at 8 a.m., the
DSB will continue to meet to discuss
classified strategies that best enable
DoD’s continued development of
symmetric and asymmetric capabilities
that will characterize future conflicts,
including periodic breaks. The meeting
will adjourn at 4 p.m.
Meeting Accessibility: In accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 1009(d) and 41 CFR 102–
3.155, the DoD has determined that the
DSB meeting will be closed to the
public. Specifically, the Deputy Under
Secretary of Defense for Research and
Engineering, in consultation with the
DoD Office of the General Counsel, has
determined in writing that the meeting
will be closed to the public because it
will consider matters covered by 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(1). 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 meeting. 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 Research and Engineering.
Written Statements: In accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 1009(a)(3) and 41 CFR
102–3.105(j) and 102–3.140, interested
persons may submit a written statement
for consideration by the DSB 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 DFO at the email address
provided in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section at any
point; however, if a written statement is
not received at least three calendar days
prior to the meeting, which is the
subject of this notice, then it may not be
provided to or considered by the DSB
until a later date.
