FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Kiesha Gebreyes, Chief, Industry
Operations Branch at (703) 235-5525, e-mail: Kiesha.Gebreyes@dhs.gov or
write the Deputy Manager, National Communications System, Department of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NSTAC advises the President on issues
and problems related to implementing national security and emergency
preparedness telecommunications policy. Notice of this meeting is given
under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Pub. L. 92-463, as
amended (5 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq.).
At the upcoming meeting, between 2 p.m. and 2:20 p.m., the members
will receive comments from government stakeholders and receive an
update from the NSTAC's Emergency Communications and Interoperability
Task Force (ECITF). This portion of the meeting will be open to the
public.
Between 2:20 p.m. and 3 p.m., the committee will discuss and vote
on the Global Infrastructure Resiliency (GIR) Report and discuss
NSTAC's Influenza Pandemic Study. This portion of the meeting will be
closed to the public.
Persons with disabilities who require special assistance should
indicate this when arranging access to the teleconference and are
encouraged to identify anticipated special needs as early as possible.
Basis for Closure: The GIR discussion will likely involve sensitive
infrastructure information concerning system threats and explicit
physical/cyber vulnerabilities related to current communications
capabilities. The discussion on NSTAC's Influenza Pandemic Study will
likely involve sensitive information concerning prioritization of
critical infrastructure capabilities, and the use of vaccines and
medications. Public disclosure of such information would heighten
awareness of potential vulnerabilities and increase the likelihood of
exploitation by terrorists or other motivated adversaries. Pursuant to
Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92-463,
as amended (5 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq.), the Department has determined
that this discussion will concern matters which, if disclosed, would be
likely to frustrate significantly the implementation of a proposed
agency action. Accordingly, the relevant portion of this meeting will
be closed to the public pursuant to the authority set forth in 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(9)(B).
Dated: September 13, 2006.
Peter M. Fonash,
Deputy Manager National Communications System.
