SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Purpose of Meeting

    To obtain, review and evaluate classified information related to 
the Committee's mission to advise on technology security, combating 
weapons of mass destruction (WMD), chemical and biological defense, the 
future of the Cooperative Threat Reduction program, and other matters 
related to the Department of Defense's mission.

Agenda

    Beginning at 9 a.m. through the end of the meeting, the committee 
will receive secret level briefings on WMD threats, the Defense Threat 
Reduction Agency, and the status of the Cooperative Threat Reduction 
program. The TRAC will hold classified discussions on these and related 
national security matters.

Administrative Meeting

    From 8 a.m. until 9 a.m. on Thursday, October 21, 2010, the TRAC 
will hold an administrative meeting under 41 CFR 102-3.160(b) to swear 
in its members and provide them with administrative information from a 
Federal officer or agency.

Meeting Accessibility

    Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended, and 41 CFR 102-3.155, the 
Department of Defense has determined that the meeting shall be closed 
to the public. The Undersecretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology 
and Logistics), in consultation with the Office of the DoD FACA 
Attorney, has determined in writing that this meeting be closed to the 
public because the discussions fall under the purview of Title 5, 
United States Code, section 552b(c)(1) and are inextricably intertwined 
with the unclassified material that they cannot reasonably be 
segregated into separate discussions without disclosing secret or 
classified material.
