In accordance with section 10(a)(2) of
the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(Pub. L. 92–463), the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC),
announces the following meeting for the
aforementioned subcommittee:
Time and Date: 9:30 a.m.–5 p.m., July 26,
2010.
Place: Cincinnati Airport Marriott, 2395
Progress Drive, Hebron, Kentucky 41018,
Telephone (859) 334–4611, Fax (859) 334–

Status: Open to the public, but without a
public comment period. To access by
conference call dial the following
information: (866) 659–0537, Participant Pass
Code 9933701.
Background: The ABRWH 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
compensation program. Key functions of the
ABRWH 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 ABRWH 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 ABRWH 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, 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 a
reasonable likelihood that such radiation
doses may have endangered the health of
members of this class. The Subcommittee on
Procedures Review was established to aid the
ABRWH in carrying out its duty to advise the
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Secretary, HHS, on dose reconstructions. The
Subcommittee on Procedures Review is
responsible for overseeing, tracking, and
participating in the reviews of all procedures
used in the dose reconstruction process by
the NIOSH Division of Compensation
Analysis and Support (DCAS) and its dose
reconstruction contractor.
Matters To Be Discussed: The agenda for
the Subcommittee meeting includes:
Discussion of a draft prototype document for
informing the public on completed
Subcommittee procedure reviews; discussion
of the following ORAU & OCAS procedures:
PER–012 (‘‘Evaluation of Highly Insoluble
Plutonium Compounds’’), PER–009 (‘‘Target
Organs for Lymphoma’’), OCAS TIB–0013
(‘‘Special External Dose Reconstruction
Considerations for Mallinckrodt Workers’’),
OTIB–014 (‘‘Rocky Flats Internal Dosimetry
Co-Worker Extension’’), OTIB–019 (‘‘Analysis
of Coworker Bioassay Data for Internal Dose
Assignment’’), 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–0049 (‘‘Estimating Doses for Plutonium
Strongly Retained in the Lung’’), 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’’), OTIB–
0057 (‘‘External Radiation Dose Estimates For
Individuals Near the 1958 Criticality
Accident at the Oak Ridge Y–12 Plant’’),
OTIB–0070 (‘‘Dose Reconstruction During
Residual Radioactivity Periods at Atomic
Weapons Employer Facilities’’), and TBD
6000 (‘‘Site Profile for Atomic Weapons
Employers that Worked Uranium and
Thorium Metals’’); and a continuation of the
comment-resolution process for other dose
reconstruction procedures under review by
the Subcommittee.
The agenda is subject to change as
priorities dictate.
This meeting is open to the public, but
without a public comment period. In the
event an individual wishes to provide
