Notice is hereby given that a Notice is hereby given that the previously announced open meeting of a delegation of the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission scheduled for June 7, 2005 from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. in St. Louis, Missouri, has been rescheduled for June 20, 2005 from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. After extensive coordination with the various Federal, State and local officials concerned, the Commission determined that it was not possible to hold a meaningful public discussion on the date originally scheduled because Congressional delegations and community representatives had not been afforded adequate opportunity to analyze the data used by the Department of Defense (DoD) to formulate the base closure and realignment recommendations due to delays by DoD in releasing that data in an unclassified form.
