(‘‘the Sunshine Act’’), governing Federal 

statutes and regulations, and established 

DoD policies and procedures. 

The Board shall be comprised of no 

more than 12 individuals, who have 

extensive professional experience in the 

fields of national intelligence, national 

defense, and academia. The Director, 

Defense Intelligence Agency shall select 

the Board’s chair. 

Board members shall be appointed by 

the Secretary of Defense or the Deputy 

Secretary of Defense with annual 

renewals. Individuals who are not fulltime or permanent part-time federal 

employees shall be appointed as experts 

or consultants pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109 

to serve as special government 

employee (SGE) members. Individuals 

who are full-time or permanent parttime Federal employees shall be 

appointed pursuant to 41 CFR 102– 

3.130(a) to serve as regular government 

employee (RGE) members. Board 

members shall serve a term of service of 

one-to-four years. No member may serve 

more than two consecutive terms of 

service without Secretary or Deputy 

Secretary of Defense approval. This 

same term of service limitation also 

applies to any DoD authorized 

subcommittee. 

All members of the Board are 

appointed to provide advice on the basis 

of their best judgment without 

representing any particular point of 

view and in a manner that is free from 

conflict of interest. 

Board members will serve without 

compensation except for reimbursement 

of travel and per diem as it pertains to 

official business of the Board. DoD, 

when necessary and consistent with the 

Board’s mission and DoD policies and 

procedures, may establish 

subcommittees, task forces, or working 

groups to support the Board. 

Establishment of subcommittees will 

be based upon a written determination, 

to include terms of reference, by the 

Secretary of Defense, the Deputy 

Secretary of Defense, or the USD(I), as 

the Board’s sponsor. 

Such subcommittees shall not work 

independently of the Board and shall 

report all of their recommendations and 

advice solely to the Board for full and 

open deliberation and discussion. 

Subcommittees, task forces, or working 

groups have no authority to make 

decisions and recommendations, 

verbally or in writing, on behalf of the 

Board. No subcommittee or any of its 

members can update or report, verbally 

or in writing, on behalf of the Board, 

directly to the DoD or any Federal 

officer or employee. 

The Secretary of Defense or the 

Deputy Secretary of Defense will 

appoint subcommittee members to a 

term of service of one-to-four years, with 

annual renewals, even if the member in 

question is already a member of the 

Board. Subcommittee members shall not 

serve more than two consecutive terms 

of service unless authorized by the 

Secretary of Defense or the Deputy 

Secretary of Defense. 

Subcommittee members, if not fulltime or permanent part-time Federal 

employees, will be appointed as experts 

or consultants pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3109 

to serve as SGE members. Subcommittee 

members, who are full-time or 

permanent part-time Federal employees, 

shall be appointed pursuant to 41 CFR 

102–3.130(a) to serve as RGE members. 

With the exception of reimbursement of 

official travel and per diem related to 

the Board or its subcommittees, 

subcommittee members shall serve 

without compensation. 

All subcommittees operate under the 

provisions of FACA, the Sunshine Act, 

governing Federal statutes and 

regulations, and established DoD 

policies and procedures. 

The Board’s Designated Federal 

Officer (DFO) shall be a full-time or 

permanent part-time DoD employee and 

shall be appointed in accordance with 

established DoD policies and 

procedures. The Board’s DFO is 

required to be in attendance at all 

meetings of the Board and any 

subcommittees for the entire duration of 

each and every meeting. However, in 

the absence of the Board’s DFO, a 

properly approved Alternate DFO, duly 

appointed to the Board according to 

established DoD policies and 

procedures, shall attend the entire 

duration of all meetings of the Board 

and its subcommittees. 

The DFO, or the Alternate DFO, shall 

call all meetings of the Board and its 

subcommittees; prepare and approve all 

meeting agendas; and adjourn any 

meeting when the DFO, or the Alternate 

DFO, determines adjournment to be in 

the public interest or required by 

governing regulations or DoD policies 

and procedures. Pursuant to 41 CFR 

102–3.105(j) and 102–3.140, the public 

or interested organizations may submit 

written statements to National 

Intelligence University Board of Visitors 

membership about the Board’s mission 

and functions. Written statements may 

be submitted at any time or in response 

to the stated agenda of planned meeting 

of the National Intelligence University 

Board of Visitors. 

All written statements shall be 

submitted to the DFO for the National 

Intelligence University Board of 

Visitors, and this individual will ensure 

that the written statements are provided 

to the membership for their 

consideration. Contact information for 

the National Intelligence University 

Board of Visitors DFO can be obtained 

from the GSA’s FACA Database—http:// 

www.facadatabase.gov/. 

The DFO, pursuant to 41 CFR 102– 

3.150, will announce planned meetings 

of the National Intelligence University 

Board of Visitors. The DFO, at that time, 

may provide additional guidance on the 

submission of written statements that 

are in response to the stated agenda for 

the planned meeting in question.

Funding Down the Grant Slate From 

Fiscal Year (FY) 2012; Graduate 

Assistance in Areas of National Need 

(GAANN) Program 

AGENCY: Office of Postsecondary 

Education, Department of Education. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to fund down 

the grant slate from fiscal year (FY) 

2012. 

SUMMARY: The Secretary intends to use 

the grant slate developed in FY 2012 for 

the GAANN Program authorized by 

Section 711 of the Higher Education Act 

of 1965, as amended (HEA), to make 

new grant awards in FY 2014. The 

Secretary takes this action because a 

significant number of high-quality 

applications remain on the FY 2012 

grant slate and limited funding is 

available for new grant awards in FY 

2014. We expect to use an estimated 

$1,268,000 for new awards in FY 2014.

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On December 15, 2011, the 

Department of Education published a 

notice in the Federal Register (76 FR 

77985) inviting applications for FY 2012 

for new awards under the GAANN 

Program. 

In response to that notice, we received 

a significant number of high-quality 

applications. Many applications that 

received high scores by peer reviewers 

were not selected for funding. 

To conserve funding that would have 

been required for a peer review of new 

grant applications submitted under this 

program and instead use those funds to 

support grant activities, the FY 2013 

GAANN grantees were selected from the 

slate of applicants developed during the 

FY 2012 competition using the priority, 

selection criteria, and application 

requirements referenced in the 

December 2011 notice. A number of 

high-quality applications from the 2012 

competition were not funded in 2012 or 

2013. We will select new grantees in FY 

2014 from the existing slate developed 

in FY 2012 for the same reasons and in 

the same manner as we did in FY 2013. 

Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1135.
