1972 (5 U.S.C., Appendix, as amended), the Government in the Sunshine 
Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), and 41 CFR 102-3.140 and 102-

    Purpose of the Meeting: The Advisory Committee on Arlington 
National Cemetery is an independent federal advisory committee 
chartered to provide the Secretary of the Army independent advice and 
recommendations on Arlington National Cemetery (ANC), including, but 
not limited to, cemetery administration, the erection of memorials at 
the cemetery, and master planning for the cemetery. The Secretary of 
the Army may act on the committee's advice and recommendations.
    The primary purpose of the Honor subcommittee is to accomplish an 
independent assessment of methods to address the long-term future of 
the Army national cemeteries, including how best to extend the active 
burials and what ANC should focus on once all available space is used.
    The primary purpose of the Remember & Explore Subcommittee is to 
recommend methods to maintain the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Monument, 
including the cracks in the large marble sarcophagus, the adjacent 
marble slabs, and the potential replacement marble stone for the 
sarcophagus already gifted to the Army; accomplish an independent 
assessment of requests to place commemorative monuments; and identify 
means to capture and convey ANC's history, including Section 60 
gravesite mementos, and improve the quality of visitors' experiences 
now and for generations to come.
    Agenda: The Honor subcommittee will review the results of a 
national dialogue and public survey conducted pursuant to Public Law 
114-158. The subcommittee will subsequently conduct a roundtable 
discussion with visiting guests and study courses of action to extend 
the life of ANC well in to the future which will be reported to the 
Full Advisory Committee for deliberation in developing recommendations 
to the Secretary of the Army.
    The Remember and Explore subcommittee will receive an update 
regarding ongoing maintenance efforts for the Memorial Amphitheater and 
review current requests for placement of commemorative monuments within 
ANC.
