L. 92–463), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, announces the following meeting for the aforementioned subcommittee: VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:19 Mar 12, 2008 Jkt 214001 SP Newsprint Co. ..................................

Status: Open to the public, but without a public comment period. To access by conference call dial the following information 1 (866) 659–0537, Participant Pass Code 9933701. Background: The Advisory Board was established under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 to advise the President on a variety of policy and technical functions required to implement and effectively manage the new compensation program. Key functions of the Advisory Board include providing advice on the development of probability of causation guidelines that have been promulgated by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as a final rule; advice on methods of dose reconstruction which have also been promulgated by HHS as a final rule; advice on the scientific validity and quality of dose estimation and reconstruction efforts being performed for purposes of the compenstion program; and advice on petitions to add classes of workers to the Special Exposure Cohort (SEC). In December 2000, the President delegated responsibility for funding, staffing, and operating the Advisory Board to HHS, which subsequently delegated this authority to CDC. NIOSH implements this responsibility for CDC. The charter was issued on August 3, PO 00000 Frm 00021 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 SP Newsprint Co. 2001, renewed at appropriate intervals, and will expire on August 3, 2009. Purpose: The Advisory Board is charged with (a) Providing advice to the Secretary, HHS, on the development of guidelines under Executive Order 13179; (b) providing advice to the Secretary, HHS, on the scientific validity and quality of dose reconstruction efforts performed for this program; and (c) upon request by the Secretary, HHS, advise the Secretary on whether there is a class of employees at any Department of Energy facility who were exposed to radiation but for whom it is not feasible to estimate their radiation dose, and on whether there is reasonable likelihood that such radiation doses may have endangered the health of members of this class. Matters To Be Discussed: The agenda for the Subcommittee meeting includes the discussion of cases under review on the 4th, 5th, and 6th sets of individual dose reconstruction; selection of cases for future review; and discussion of the summary report on the first 100 cases. The agenda is subject to change as priorities dictate. ABRWH determines that agency business requires its consideration of this matter on less than 15 days notice to the public and that no earlier notice of this meeting was possible. In the event an individual cannot attend, written comments may be submitted. Any written comments received will be provided at the meeting and should be submitted to E:\FR\FM\13MRN1.SGM 13MRN1
