SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board Task Force on DoD Roles and Missions 
in Homeland Security will meet in closed session on January 7-;8, 2003; 
February 19-20, 2003, March 29-20, 2003; April 22-23, 2003; May 28-29,

the Department of Defense (DoD) roles and missions in Homeland 
Security.
    The mission of the Defense Science Board is to advise the Secretary 
of Defense and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology & Logistics on scientific and technical matters as they 
affect the perceived needs of the Department of Defense. At these 
meetings, the Task Force will address: the definition of ``Homeland 
Security'' and the specific roles and missions DoD will be responsible 
for accomplishing; the prioritized goals for these DoD roles and 
missions in a national security emergency; the DoD strategy and plans 
for the employment of National Guard and Reserve forces capabilities to 
participate in Homeland Security and also respond to warfighting 
demands overseas; the other primary Federal agencies and the evolving 
new Department of Homeland Security with which DoD must develop an 
integrated security strategy, planning function and operational 
capabilities and inter-agency processes that need to be put in place; 
the known and many unknown vulnerabilities to DoD force projection and 
how projections issues and responsibilities will be addressed in the 
larger context of Homeland Security; and the classes of technologies 
and systems that DoD should have the lead in developing and fielding 
which have applications for homeland security as well.
    In accordance with section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act, Pub. L. 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. II), it has been 
determined that these Defense Science Board Task Force meetings concern 
matters listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that, accordingly, these 
meetings will be closed to the public.

SUMMARY: The Defense Science Board Task Force on Joint Experimentation 
will meet in closed session on December 2-3, 2002, and December 18, 
2002, at Strategic Analysis Inc., 3601 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA. 
This Task Force will examine joint experimentation programs and 
activities and will recommend ways to enhance the contributions of 
joint experimentation to transformation.
    The mission of the Defense Science Board is to advise the Secretary 
of Defense and the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, 
Technology & Logistics on scientific and technical matters as they 
affect the perceived needs of the Department of Defense. At these 
meetings, the Defense Science Board Task Force will review the Joint 
Forces Command's program of joint experimentation and recommend steps 
to enhance its value by examining the goals, process and substance of 
the experimentation program, to include: creating an environment that 
fosters innovation and learning; collecting, analyzing, interpreting, 
vetting and disseminating data; engaging the Services, other Commands, 
key U.S. government agencies and allies; and developing and using 
models, simulations and other tools. In addition, the Task Force will 
review the recently completed Millennium Challenge 02 to identify 
insights and opportunities that may not have been focused on by those 
closer to the activity.
    In accordance with Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act, Pub. L. No. 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App. II), it has been 
determined that these Defense Science Board Task Force meetings concern 
matters listed in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(1) and that, accordingly, these 
meetings will be closed to the public.
    Due to critical mission requirements and the short timeframe to 
accomplish this review, there is insufficient time to provide timely 
notice required by Section 10(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act and Subsection 101-6.1015(b) of the GSA Final Rule on Federal 
Advisory Committee Management, 41 CFR part 101-6, which further 
requires publication at least 15 calendar days prior to the first 
meeting of the Task Force on Joint Experimentation.

to support and sustain continued live fire training and testing of 
munitions at ranges across the United States with an acceptable 
environmental impact.
