SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given under 
Section 10(a) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Public Law 
92-463 (5 U.S.C. App.) requires each FACA committee meeting to be open 
to the public.
    The HSAC provides organizationally independent, strategic, timely, 
specific, and actionable advice and recommendations for the 
consideration of the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security 
(DHS) on matters related to homeland security. The Council is comprised 
of leaders of local law enforcement, first responders, state and local 
government, the private sector, and academia.
    The HSAC will meet in open session between 1:45 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. 
EDT. The HSAC will receive observations and remarks from DHS senior 
leadership, and swear in new HSAC members. Members will receive reports 
from the following HSAC subcommittees: the DHS Employee Task Force, the 
Foreign Fighter Task Force, the DHS Grant Review Task Force, and the 
Customs and Border Protection Integrity Advisory Panel.
    The HSAC will meet in closed session between 11:00 a.m. and 1:30 
p.m. as well as 4:15 p.m. and 5:15 p.m. EDT to receive sensitive 
operational information from senior DHS leadership. This information 
regards threats to our homeland, specifically operational updates on 
the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) aviation security 
program, cyber security and the current threat environment.
    Basis for Partial-Closure: In accordance with Section 10(d) of the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), this meeting has been determined 
to require partial-closure. The disclosure of the information relayed 
would be detrimental to the public interest for the following reasons:
    The HSAC will receive closed session briefings from DHS officials 
on the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) aviation security 
program, and operational updates on cyber security and the current 
threat environment. This will include lessons learned and enhanced 
security measures associated with operations and management. These 
briefings will concern matters sensitive to homeland security within 
the meaning of 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(7)(E) and 552b(c)(9)(B). Public 
disclosure of this information would provide terrorists and other 
adversaries with guidelines to thwart the Department's strategic 
initiatives. Under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B), disclosure of these 
techniques and procedures could frustrate the successful implementation 
of protective measures designed to keep our country safe. In addition, 
Under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(7)(E), disclosure of that information could 
reveal investigative techniques and procedures not generally available 
to the public, allowing terrorists and those with interests against the 
United States to circumvent the law.
    Participation: Members of the public will have until 5 p.m. EDT on 
Friday, May 15, 2015 to register to attend the HSAC meeting on May 21, 
2015. Due to limited availability of seating, admittance will be on a 
first-come first-served basis. Participants interested in attending the 
meeting can contact Mike Miron at HSAC@dhs.gov or (202) 447-3135. You 
are required to provide your full legal name, date of birth, and 
company/agency affiliation. The public may access the facility via 
public transportation or use the public parking garages located near 
the Wilson Center. Wilson Center directions can be found at: http://wilsoncenter.org/directions. Members of the public will meet at 1:30 
p.m. EDT at the Wilson Center's main entrance for sign in and escorting 
to the public meeting room. Late arrivals after 2:00 p.m. EDT will not 
be permitted access to the facility.
    Facility Access: You are required to present a valid original 
government issued ID; State Driver's License or Non-Driver's 
Identification Card, U.S. Government Common Access Card (CAC), Military 
Identification Card or Person Identification Verification Card; U.S.
