[[Page 55377]]

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 an open session between 11:15 a.m. and 2:05 
p.m. EDT and from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. EDT. The HSAC will receive 
observations and remarks from DHS senior leadership. Members will 
receive verbal progress reports from the subcommittees and Departmental 
leadership on: The DHS Grant Review Task Force, the CBP Integrity 
Advisory Panel, the DHS Employee Task Force, the Foreign Fighter Task 
Force, and the Cybersecurity Subcommittee.
    The HSAC will meet in a closed session from 10:05 a.m. to 11:05 
a.m. and 2:15 p.m. to 3:55 p.m. EDT to receive sensitive operational

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 operational updates to the National Terrorism Advisory System, 
aviation security, cybersecurity, and the current threat environment. 
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), 
disclosure of these techniques and procedures could frustrate the 
successful implementation of protective measures designed to keep our 
country safe. In addition, 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 terrorist and those with 
interests against the United States to circumvent the law.

Wednesday, September 23, 2015 to register to attend the HSAC meeting on
