TIME AND DATE: 5 p.m.–7 p.m.,

PLACE: Homewood Suites at the Buffalo

87506, telephone 505–455–9100.
STATUS: Open to the public, limited only
by the space available. The meeting
room accommodates approximately 50
people.
BACKGROUND: Under a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) signed in
December 1990 with the Department of
Energy (DOE) and replaced by MOUs
signed in 1996 and 2000, the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) was given the
responsibility and resources for
conducting analytic epidemiologic
investigations of residents of
communities in the vicinity of DOE
facilities, workers at DOE facilities, and
other persons potentially exposed to
radiation or to potential hazards from
non-nuclear energy production use.
HHS delegated program responsibility
to CDC.
In addition, a memo was signed in
October 1990 and renewed in November
1992, 1996, and in 2000, between the
Agency for Toxic Substances and
Disease Registry (ATSDR) and DOE. The
MOU delineates the responsibilities and
procedures for ATSDR’s public health
activities at DOE sites required under
sections 104, 105, 107, and 120 of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (CERCLA or ‘‘Superfund’’). These
activities include health consultations
and public health assessments at DOE
sites listed on, or proposed for, the
Superfund National Priorities List and
at sites that are the subject of petitions
from the public; and other healthrelated activities such as epidemiologic
studies, health surveillance, exposure
and disease registries, health education,
substance-specific applied research,
emergency response, and preparation of
toxicological profiles.
PURPOSE: This study group is charged
with locating, evaluating, cataloguing,
and copying documents that contain
information about historical chemical or
radionuclide releases from facilities at
the Los Alamos National Laboratory
since its inception. The purpose of this
meeting is to review the goals, methods,
and schedule of the project, discuss
progress to date, provide a forum for
community interaction, and serve as a
vehicle for members of the public to

express concerns and provide advice to
CDC.
MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSED: Agenda items
include a presentation from the National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH) and its contractor regarding the
status of project work and a summary of
recent activities, such as completion of
reviews of some key document
collections, an investigation of early
plutonium processing in D Building
during World War II, and launching of
a new project information database.
There will be time for public input,
questions, and comments. All agenda
items are subject to change as priorities
dictate.
