Status: Open to the public, but without a

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 which
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 compensation
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 the
CDC. NIOSH implements this responsibility
for CDC. The charter was issued on August
3, 2001, renewed at appropriate intervals,
most recently, August 3, 2007, and will
expire on August 3, 2009.
Purpose: This Advisory Board is charged
with (a) providing advice to the Secretary,
HHS, on the development of guidelines
under Executive Order 13179; (b) providing

reconstruction efforts performed for this
program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advising 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.

the conference call includes: SEC Petition
Status Updates; Status of Board
Recommendation on Connecticut Aircraft
Nuclear Engine Laboratory (CANEL) SEC

Support Contractor Activities; Update on
Selection of the Board’s Contractor; Future
