STATUS: Open. While the Government
in the Sunshine Act does not require
that the scheduled discussion be
conducted in a meeting, the Board has
determined that an open meeting in this
specific case furthers the public
interests underlying both the Sunshine
Act and the Board’s enabling legislation.
MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: This is the
second in a series of public meetings to
examine the Department of Energy’s
(DOE) implementation of
Recommendation 2004–1, Oversight of
Complex, High-Hazard Nuclear
Operations. The Board is reviewing
DOE’s and the National Nuclear
Security Administration’s (NNSA)
current oversight and safety
management of the contracts and
contractors they rely upon to
accomplish the mission assigned to DOE
and NNSA under the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954, as amended, at defense nuclear
facilities. We will focus on what impact
DOE’s and NNSA’s new initiatives,
including changes to DOE directives,
contractor oversight, and governance,
may have upon assuring adequate
protection of the health and safety of the
public and workers at DOE’s defense
nuclear facilities. Over the next several
months, we will conduct a series of
public meetings to collect information
needed to understand and address any
health or safety concerns that may
require Board Action.
In the May 12th meeting, the Board
will explore in more depth federal
safety management and oversight
policies being developed by DOE and
NNSA for defense nuclear facilities.
DOE and NNSA senior leaders will
articulate their views on the role of line
and independent oversight to safely
accomplish their work at defense
nuclear facilities. The Board will
examine DOE’s and NNSA’s new
approach to federal oversight and its
relationship to contractor assurance
systems. The public hearing portion of
this proceeding is authorized by 42
U.S.C. 2286b.
CONTACT PERSON FOR MORE INFORMATION:
