SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This meeting is being held under the 
provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 
United States Code (U.S.C.), appendix, as amended), the Government in 
the Sunshine Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), the General

0830-0900 Members Assemble
0900 Call to Order (Open to Public)
0900-1055 Business Session (Open to Public)

    Current details on the board of visitors may be found at https://www.usna.edu/PAO/Superintendent/bov.php.
    The executive session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. 
on February 28, 2022, will consist of discussions of new and pending 
administrative or minor disciplinary infractions and non-judicial 
punishments involving midshipmen attending the Naval Academy to include 
but not limited to, individual honor or conduct violations within the 
Brigade, the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted 
invasion of personal privacy. For this reason, the executive session of 
this meeting will be closed to the public, as the discussion of such 
information cannot be adequately segregated from other topics, which 
precludes opening the executive session of this meeting to the public. 
Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy, in consultation with the 
Department of the Navy General Counsel, has determined in writing that 
the meeting shall be partially closed to the public because the 
discussions during the executive session from 11 a.m. to noon (12 p.m.) 
will be concerned with matters protected under sections 552b(c) (5), 
(6), and (7) of title 5, U.S.C.
    Authority: 5 U.S.C. 552b.
    Meeting Accessibility: Pursuant to FACA and 41 CFR 102-3.140, this 
meeting is open to the public. Any public attendance at the meeting 
will be governed by prevailing health directives at the United States 
Naval Academy. Please contact the Executive Secretary five business 
days prior the meeting to coordinate access to the meeting.
    Written Statements: Per section 10(a)(3) of the FACA and 41 CFR 
102-3.105(j) and 102-3.140, interested persons may submit a written 
statement for consideration at any time, but should be received by the 
Designated Federal Officer at least 10 business days prior to the 
meeting date so that the comments may be made available to the Board 
for their consideration prior to the meeting. Written statements should 
be submitted via mail to 121 Blake Rd., Annapolis, MD 21402. Please 
note that since the Board operates under the provisions of the FACA, as 
amended, all submitted comments and public presentations may be treated 
as public documents and may be made available for public inspection, 
including, but not limited to, being posted on the board website. In 
the event that prevailing medical/public health directives require a 
virtual meeting, the meeting will be virtually broadcasted live from 
the United States Naval Academy. The broadcast will be close captioned 
for the duration of the public portion of the meeting. If, and only if, 
prevailing/public health directives require a virtual meeting, the link 
to view the meeting will be posted at https://www.usna.edu/PAO/Superintendent/bov.php forty-eight hours prior to the meeting. A 
virtual event will preclude accommodation of the public to attend the 
meeting in person.

    Dated: February 7, 2022.
J.M. Pike,
Commander, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy, Federal Register 
Liaison Officer.
