Meeting of the U.S. Naval Academy Board of Visitors

AGENCY:

Department of the Navy, DoD.

ACTION:

Notice of Partially Closed Meeting.

SUMMARY:

The U.S. Naval Academy Board of Visitors will meet to make such inquiry, as the Board shall deem necessary, into the state of morale and discipline, the curriculum, instruction, physical equipment, fiscal affairs, and academic methods of the Naval Academy. The executive session of this meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on March 2, 2015, will address new, pending, administrative and minor disciplinary infractions and non-judicial punishments involving the Midshipmen attending the U.S. 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.

DATES:

The open session of the meeting will be held on March 2, 2015, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. The executive session held from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. will be the closed portion of the meeting.

ADDRESSES:

The meeting will be held at the U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD. The meeting will be handicapped accessible.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Lieutenant Commander Eric Madonia, USN, Executive Secretary to the Board of Visitors, Office of the Superintendent, U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, MD 21402-5000, 410-293-1503.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This notice of meeting is provided per the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. App.). The executive session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on March 2, 2015, will consist of discussions of law enforcement investigations into allegations of criminal activity, new, pending, administrative and minor disciplinary infractions and nonjudicial punishments involving Midshipmen attending the Naval Academy to include, but not limited to, individual honor or conduct violations within the Brigade and personnel issues. 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 Chairman of the U.S. Naval Academy Board of Visitors has determined in writing that the meeting shall be partially closed to the public because the discussions during the executive session from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. will be concerned with matters protected from public hearing by sections 552b(c)(5), (6), and (7) of title 5, United States Code.

Authority:

5 U.S.C. 552b.

Dated: January 23, 2015.

P.A. Richelmi,

Lieutenant, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy, Alternate Federal Register Liaison Officer.
