On September 12 at 8:30 a.m., DSB 

members will meet in smaller breakout 

groups to review the study briefing 

materials and engage in classified 

discussion regarding anticipating the 

global stresses and possible conflict due 

to climate change, with a break mid-day. 

The meeting will adjourn at 4:30 p.m. 

On September 13 at 8:30 a.m., the 

meeting will begin with a plenary 

session where members will meet as a

Meeting Accessibility: In accordance 

with 5 U.S.C. 1009(d) and 41 CFR 102– 

3.140 through 102–3.155, the DoD has 

determined that the DSB meeting will 

be closed to the public. Specifically, the 

Under Secretary of Defense for Research 

and Engineering, in consultation with 

the DoD Office of the General Counsel, 

has determined in writing that the 

meeting will be closed to the public 

because it will consider matters covered 

by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1). The 

determination is based on the 

consideration that it is expected that 

discussions throughout will involve 

classified matters of national security 

concern. Such classified material is so 

intertwined with the unclassified 

material that it cannot reasonably be 

segregated into separate discussions 

without defeating the effectiveness and 

meaning of the overall meeting. To 

permit the meeting to be open to the 

public would preclude discussion of 

such matters and would greatly 

diminish the ultimate utility of the 

DSB’s findings and recommendations to 

the Secretary of Defense and to the 

Under Secretary of Defense for Research 

and Engineering. 

Written Statements: In accordance 

with 5 U.S.C. 1009(a)(3) and 41 CFR

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 165 / Monday, August 28, 2023 / Notices 58569

persons may submit a written statement 

for consideration by the DSB at any time 

regarding its mission or in response to 

the stated agenda of a planned meeting. 

Individuals submitting a written 

statement must submit their statement 

to the DSB DFO at the email address 

provided in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section at any 

point; however, if a written statement is 

not received at least three calendar days 

prior to the meeting, which is the 

subject of this notice, then it may not be 

provided to or considered by the DSB 

until a later date.
