    The address of the meetings site is: Crowne Plaza Washington 
National Airport Hotel, 1480 Crystal Drive, Arlington, VA 22202.
    The purpose of the Board is to review rehabilitation research and 
development applications and advise the Director, Rehabilitation 
Research and Development Service, and the Chief Research and 
Development Officer on the scientific and technical merit, the mission 
relevance, and the protection of human and animal subjects.
    The subcommittee meetings will be open to the public for 
approximately one-half hour at the start of each meeting to cover 
administrative matters and to discuss the general status of the 
program. Members of the public who wish to attend the open portion of 
the teleconference sessions may dial 1 (800) 767-1750, participant code 
35847. The remaining portion of each subcommittee meeting will be 
closed to the public for the discussion, examination, reference to, and 
oral review of the research applications and critiques. During the 
closed portion of each subcommittee meeting, discussion and 
recommendations will include qualifications of the personnel conducting 
the studies (the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly 
unwarranted invasion of personal privacy), as well as research 
information (the premature disclosure of which would likely compromise 
significantly the implementation of proposed agency action regarding 
such research projects). As provided by subsection 10(d) of Public Law 
92-463, as amended by Public Law 94-409, closing the meeting is in 
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6) and (9)(B).
    No oral or written comments will be accepted from the public for 
either portion of the meetings. Those who plan to attend (by phone or 
in person) the open portion of a subcommittee meeting must contact 
Kristy Benton-Grover, Designated Federal Officer, Rehabilitation 
Research and Development Service, at Department of Veterans Affairs 
(10P9R), 810 Vermont Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20420, or email 
[email protected], at least five days before the meeting. For 
further information, please call Mrs. Benton-Grover at (202) 443-5728.
