NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
Notice of Intent To Establish
Independent External Review Panel To
Identify Vulnerabilities in the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s
Material Licensing Program
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: This notice is to announce the
NRC intends to establish a new advisory
committee.
AGENCY:
The U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
is chartering a new advisory committee.
This action is being taken in accordance
with the Federal Advisory Committee
Act, after consultation with the
Committee Management Secretariat,
General Services Administration. The
committee, designated as the
Independent External Review Panel to
Identify Vulnerabilities in the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s
Material Licensing Program is being
tasked to respond to the NRC Office of
the Inspector General (OIG)
recommendation (OIG–07–A–12),
‘‘* * * that the Executive Director for
Operations convene an independent
panel of experts external to the agency
to identify agency vulnerabilities
concerning NRC’s material licensing
and tracking programs and validate the
agency’s ongoing byproduct material
security efforts.’’ The OIG report also
stated, ‘‘Such an assessment should
necessarily include examination of the
management, operational, and technical
security controls and the extent to
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
which these controls are: (1)
Implemented correctly, (2) operating as
intended, and (3) producing the desired
outcome with respect to mitigating
security vulnerabilities.’’
In responding to this
recommendation, the panel will include
in its review an assessment of the
existing and potential security
vulnerabilities related to NRC’s specific,
import, export and general license
programs. The panel is to also evaluate
the apparent good-faith presumption
that pervades the NRC licensing process
(See Recommendation S–1 in the Action
Plan).
The panel is expected to develop an
agenda and plan for the review; this
plan will include, as a minimum,
assessment of pre-licensing guidance,
licensing procedures, the licensing
process, possession limits on licenses,
and license reviewer training and
oversight. The panel will document
each significant issue identified and
make appropriate recommendations and
propose corrective actions.
The panel is being asked to complete
and submit a report with
recommendations to the Director of the
Office of Federal and State Materials
and Environmental Management
Programs by January 31, 2008. In
addition to documenting its
recommendations and the bases for
those recommendations, the panel will
be asked to document other options that
were considered and the reasons for not
adopting them.
