PO 00000 Frm 00084 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 ACTION: 1831 Request for resumes. SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) seeks qualified candidates for the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS). Submit resumes to Ms. Kendra Freeland, Analyst, ACRS, Mail Stop T2E–26, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555–0001, or e-mail Kendra.Freeland@NRC.GOV. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ACRS is a part-time advisory group, which is statutorily mandated by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. ACRS provides independent expert advice on matters related to the safety of existing and proposed nuclear power plants and on the adequacy of proposed reactor safety standards. Of primary importance are the safety issues associated with the operation of 104 commercial nuclear power plants in the United States and regulatory initiatives, including riskinformed and performance-based regulations, license renewal, power uprates, and the use of mixed oxide and high burnup fuels. An increased emphasis is being given to safety issues associated with new reactor designs and technologies, including passive system reliability and thermal hydraulic phenomena, use of digital instrumentation and control, international codes and standards used in multinational design certifications, material and structural engineering, nuclear analysis and reactor core performance, and nuclear materials and radiation protection. The ACRS also has some involvement in security matters related to the integration of safety and security of commercial reactors. See NRC Web site at https:// www.nrc.gov/aboutnrc/regulatory/ advisory/acrs.html for additional information about ACRS. Criteria used to evaluate candidates include education and experience, demonstrated skills in nuclear reactor safety matters, the ability to solve complex technical problems, and the ability to work collegially on a board, panel, or committee. The Commission, in selecting its Committee members, considers the need for a specific expertise to accomplish the work expected to be before the ACRS. ACRS Committee members are appointed for four-year terms and normally serve no more than three terms. The Commission looks to fill potential multiple vacancies as a result of this request. For these positions, a candidate must have at least 10 years of broad experience in nuclear engineering coupled with operational exposure to issues relative to new reactor designs pertaining to digital instrumentation and control, civil/ E:\FR\FM\13JAN1.SGM 13JAN1
