*Minutes:*                         May be obtained from the contact person listed above.                    

*Purpose of Meeting:*                         The Panel will conduct an independent review of the current U.S. Antarctic Program to ensure the nation is pursuing the best twenty-year trajectory for conducting science and diplomacy in Antarctica—one that is environmentally sound, safe, innovative, affordable, sustainable, and consistent with the Antarctic Treaty.                    

*Agenda:*                         Present the Panel with additional programmatic information related to opportunities and challenges for Antarctic research and research support; discussion of findings and recommendations; planning for final report.                    

*Reason for Closing:*                         One session of the meeting is closed to the public because the Committee will review and discuss confidential commercial information and/or privileged intellectual property that if disclosed could harm the commercial interest of a submitter. The panel discussion could lead to premature disclosure of information that could significantly frustrate the Agency's implementation of proposed actions. Therefore this session is properly closed under exemptions 5 U.S.C. 552b(c), (4) and (9)(B) of the Government in the Sunshine Act.                    

 Dated: April 3, 2012.
