Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 45 / Tuesday, March 9, 2010 / Notices will also participate in daily workshops with their industry counterparts, focusing on selective regulatory issues important to both CDER staff and industry. The primary objective of the daily workshops is to learn about the team approach to drug development, including drug discovery, preclinical evaluation, tracking mechanisms, and regulatory submission operations. The overall benefit to regulatory project managers will be exposure to project management, team techniques, and processes employed by the pharmaceutical industry. By participating in this program, the regulatory project manager will grow professionally by gaining a better understanding of industry processes and procedures III. Site Selection All travel expenses associated with the site tours will be the responsibility of CDER; therefore, selection will be based on the availability of funds and resources for each fiscal year. Selection will also be based on firms having a favorable facility status as determined by FDA’s Office of Regulatory Affairs District Offices in the firms’ respective regions. Firms interested in offering a site tour or learning more about this training opportunity should respond by (see DATES) by submitting a proposed agenda to Beth Duvall-Miller (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).

    Background: The Advisory Board was established under the Energy

advise the President on a variety of policy and technical functions 
required to implement and effectively manage the 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 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 CDC. NIOSH implements this 
responsibility for CDC. The charter was issued on August 3, 2001, 
renewed at appropriate intervals, and will expire on August 3, 2011.
    Purpose: The Advisory Board is charged with (a) Providing advice

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. The Subcommittee on Procedures Reviews was established 
to aid the Advisory Board in carrying out its duty to advise the 
Secretary, HHS, on dose reconstruction. It is responsible for 
overseeing, tracking, and participating in the reviews of all 
procedures used in the dose reconstruction process by the NIOSH 
Office of Compensation Analysis and Support (OCAS) and its dose 
reconstruction contractor.
    Matters To Be Discussed: The agenda for the Subcommittee meeting 
includes: the development of recommendations for an Advisory Board 
procedure for reviewing OCAS Program Evaluation Reports; and 
discussion of the following Oak Ridge Associated Universities & OCAS 
procedures: OTIB-013 (``Special External Dose Reconstruction 
Considerations for Mallinckrodt Workers''), OTIB-014 (``Rocky Flats 
Internal Dosimetry Co-Worker Extension''), OTIB-0029 (``Internal 
Dosimetry Coworker Data for Y-12''), OTIB-0049 (``Estimating Doses 
for Plutonium Strongly Retained in the Lung''), OTIB-0047 (External 
Radiation Monitoring at the Y-12 Facility During the 1948-1949 
Period''), OTIB-0051 (``Effect of Threshold Energy and Angular 
Response of NTA Film on Missed Neutron Dose at the Oak Ridge Y-12 
Facility''), OTIB-0054 (``Fission and Activation Product Assignment 
for Internal Dose-Related Gross Beta and Gross Gamma Analyses''), 
and OTIB-0070 (``Dose Reconstruction During Residual Radioactivity 
Periods at Atomic Weapons Employer Facilities''); and a continuation 
of the comment-resolution process for other dose reconstruction 
procedures under review by the Subcommittee.
