SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CISA 

Cybersecurity Advisory Committee was 

established under the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021, 

Public Law 116–283. Notice of this 

meeting is given under FACA, 5 U.S.C. 

ch. 10. The CISA Cybersecurity 

Advisory Committee advises the CISA 

Director on matters related to the 

development, refinement, and 

implementation of policies, programs, 

planning, and training pertaining to the 

cybersecurity mission of the Agency. 

Agenda: The CISA Cybersecurity 

Advisory Committee will hold a virtual 

meeting on Thursday, March 21, 2024, 

from 12:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET to 

discuss current CISA Cybersecurity

open session will last from 2:45 p.m. to 

4:00 p.m. ET and will include: (1) a 

period for public comment, and (2) an 

update on subcommittee progress. 

The Committee will also meet in a 

closed session from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 

p.m. ET to participate in an operational 

discussion that will address areas of 

critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities and 

priorities for CISA. Government officials 

will share sensitive information with 

Committee members on initiatives and 

future security requirements for 

assessing cyber risks to critical 

infrastructure. 

Basis for Closure: In accordance with 

section 10(d) of FACA and 5 U.S.C. 

552b(c)(9)(B), The Government in the 

Sunshine Act, it has been determined 

that certain agenda items require 

closure, as the premature disclosure of 

the information that will be discussed 

would be likely to significantly frustrate 

implementation of proposed agency 

actions. 

This agenda item addresses areas of 

CISA’s operations that include critical 

cybersecurity vulnerabilities and 

priorities for CISA. Government officials 

will share sensitive information with 

Committee members on initiatives and 

future security requirements for 

assessing cyber risks to critical 

infrastructure. 

As the premature disclosure of the 

information that will be discussed 

would be likely to significantly frustrate

action, this portion of the meeting is 

required to be closed pursuant to 

section 10(d) of FACA and 5 U.S.C.

15214 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 42 / Friday, March 1, 2024 / Notices 

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service, have received 

applications for permits, permit 

renewals, and/or permit amendments to 

conduct activities intended to enhance 

the propagation or survival of 

endangered species under the 

Endangered Species Act. We invite the 

public and local, State, Tribal, and 

Federal agencies to comment on these 

applications. Before issuing any of the 

requested permits, we will take into 

consideration any information that we 

receive during the public comment 

period. 

DATES: We must receive written data or 

comments on the applications by April 

1, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: Document availability and 

comment submission: Use one of the 

following methods to request 

documents or submit comments. 

Requests and comments should specify 

the applicant name(s) and application 

number(s) (e.g., Smith, PER0123456 or

Manager, Ecological Services, U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service, P.O. Box 25486

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Robert Krijgsman, Recovery Permits 

Coordinator, Ecological Services, 303– 

236–4347 (phone), or permitsR6ES@

fws.gov (email). Individuals in the 

United States who are deaf, deafblind, 

hard of hearing, or have a speech 

disability may dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or 

TeleBraille) to access 

telecommunications relay services. 

Individuals outside the United States 

should use the relay services offered 

within their country to make 

international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite 

review and comment from the public 

and local, State, Tribal, and Federal 

agencies on applications we have 

received for permits to conduct certain 

activities with endangered and 

threatened species under section 

10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species 

Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 

U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and our regulations 

in the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) at 50 CFR part 17. Documents and 

other information submitted with the 

applications are available for review, 

subject to the requirements of the 

Privacy Act and the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

Background 

With some exceptions, the ESA 

prohibits take of listed species unless a 

Federal permit is issued that authorizes 

such take. The ESA’s definition of 

‘‘take’’ includes hunting, shooting, 

harming, wounding, or killing, and also 

such activities as pursuing, harassing, 

trapping, capturing, or collecting. 

A recovery permit issued by us under 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 

authorizes the permittee to take 

endangered or threatened species while 

engaging in activities that are conducted 

for scientific purposes that promote 

recovery of species or for enhancement 

of propagation or survival of species. 

These activities often include the 

capture and collection of species, which 

would result in prohibited take if a 

permit were not issued. Our regulations 

implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for 

these permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22 

for endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR 

17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50 

CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species, 

and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant 

species. 

Permit Applications Available for 

Review and Comment 

The ESA requires that we invite 

public comment before issuing these 

permits. Accordingly, we invite local, 

State, Tribal, and Federal agencies and 

the public to submit written data, views, 

or arguments with respect to these 

applications. The comments and 

recommendations that will be most 

useful and likely to influence agency 

decisions are those supported by 

quantitative information or studies. 

Proposed activities in the following 

permit requests are for the recovery and 

enhancement of propagation or survival 

of the species in the wild.

B. May I review comments submitted by

You may view and comment on 

others’ public comments at https://

C. Who will see my comments? 

If you submit a comment at https://

responsibilities for affected species, and 

in consideration of section 10(c) of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), 

we invite public comments on permit

the affected species. Service regulations 

regarding prohibited activities with 

endangered species, captive-bred 

wildlife registrations, and permits for 

any activity otherwise prohibited by the 

ESA with respect to any endangered 

species are available in title 50 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations in part 17.
