Pursuant to the provisions of the
‘‘Government in the Sunshine Act’’ (5
U.S.C. 552b), notice is hereby given of
the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety
Board’s (Board) public hearing and
meeting described below. The Board
will conduct a public hearing and
meeting pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 2286b
and invites any interested persons or
groups to present any comments,
technical information, or data
concerning safety issues related to the
matters to be considered.

Additionally, as a part of the Board’s EGovernment initiative, the meeting will
be presented live through Internet video
streaming. A link to the presentation
will be available on the Board’s Web site
(https://www.dnfsb.gov).
PLACE:
Open. While the Government in
the Sunshine Act does not require that
the scheduled discussion be conducted
in a meeting, the Board has determined
that an open meeting in this specific
case furthers the public interests
underlying both the Sunshine Act and
the Board’s enabling legislation.
STATUS:
This public
hearing and meeting is the second in a
series concerning the Department of
Energy’s (DOE) and National Nuclear
Security Administration’s (NNSA)
incorporation of safety into the design
and construction of new and existing
DOE defense nuclear facilities. The
Board is responsible, pursuant to its
statutory charter, to review and evaluate
the content and implementation of
standards relating to the design and
construction of such facilities. The
Board has previously observed the need
for improvement in the incorporation of
safety early in the design of certain new
defense nuclear facilities. These
observations led to the initial public
hearing and meeting on safety and
design, which the Board convened on
December 7, 2005. At that hearing, the
Board explored DOE’s safety policies,
expectations and processes for
integrating safety early into the design
and construction of new facilities and
the modification of existing facilities.
The Board heard testimony from DOE
and NNSA officials concerning
recognition of deficiencies in this area,
and DOE’s and NNSA’s plans and
commitments to revise its relevant
Orders and Manuals to ensure
integration of safety early in the design
and construction process. This second
hearing on safety in design will focus on
actions taken by DOE and NNSA to
improve incorporation of safety early in
the design process, and will examine
progress concerning relevant
commitments made prior to and at the
first hearing. The Board again expects to
hear presentations from both DOE and
NNSA senior management officials
concerning integration of safety into
design. The Board may also collect any
other information relevant to health or
safety of the workers and the public,
with respect to safety in design, that
may warrant Board action. The public
