DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS 

AFFAIRS 

Rehabilitation Research and 

Development Service Scientific Merit 

Review Board; Notice of Meeting 

The Department of Veterans Affairs 

gives notice under Public Law 92–463 

(Federal Advisory Committee Act) that 

a meeting of the Rehabilitation Research 

and Development Service Scientific 

Merit Review Board will be held on 

March 5–8, 2007, at the Crystal Gateway 

Marriott Hotel, Arlington, VA. The 

sessions are scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. 

and end at 5:30 p.m. each day. 

The purpose of the Board is to review 

rehabilitation research and development 

applications for scientific and technical 

merit and to make recommendations to 

the Director, Rehabilitation Research 

and Development Service, regarding 

their funding. 

The meeting will be open to the 

public for the March 5 and March 7, 

2007 sessions from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. for 

the discussion of administrative matters,

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 5 / Tuesday, January 9, 2007 / Notices 1061 

p.m. and on March 6 and 8, 2007 from 

8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. for the Board’s 

review of research and development 

applications. 

The Board’s review of applications 

involves oral comments, discussion of 

site visits, staff and consultant critiques 

of proposed research protocols, and 

similar analytical documents that 

necessitate the consideration of the 

personal qualifications, performance 

and competence of individual research 

investigators. Disclosure of such 

information would constitute a clearly 

unwarranted invasion of personal 

privacy. Disclosure would also reveal 

research proposals and research 

underway which could lead to the loss 

of these projects to third parties and 

thereby frustrate future agency research 

efforts. 

Thus, the closing is in accordance 

with 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6), and (c)(9)(B) 

and the determination of the Secretary 

of the Department of Veterans Affairs 

under Section 10(d) of Public Law 92–

463 as amended by Section 5(c) of 

Public Law 94–409. 

Those who plan to attend the open 

sessions should contact Dr. Denise 

Burton, Designated Federal Officer, 

Portfolio Manager, Rehabilitation 

Research and Development Service 

(122P), Department of Veterans Affairs, 

810 Vermont Avenue, NW., 

Washington, DC 20420, at (202) 254–

0268. 

Dated: December 27, 2006. 

By Direction of the Secretary. 

E. Philip Riggin, 

Committee Management Officer.
