Objectives

    The President's Homeland Security Advisory Council was established 
by Executive Order 13260 (67 FR 13241, March 21, 2002). The objectives 
of the PHSAC are to provide advice and recommendations to the President 
of the United States through the Assistant to the President for 
Homeland Security (Assistant), on matters relating to homeland 
security.

insufficient time to provide the full 15 calendar days notice in the 
Federal Register prior to advisory committee meetings, pursuant to the 
final rule on Federal Advisory Committee Management codified at 41 CFR 
102-3.150. Moreover, in accordance with Section 10(d) of the Federal 
Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92-463, as amended (5 U.S.C. App.),

sensitive to homeland security within the meaning of 5 U.S.C. 
552b(c)(7) and (9)(B) and that, accordingly, the meeting will be 
partially closed to the public. In addition, due to the security
