Advisory Board on Radiation and
Worker Health (ABRWH or Advisory
Board), National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH)
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 of the
aforementioned committee:
Time and Date: 11 a.m.–2 p.m., October 7,
2010.
Place: Audio Conference Call via FTS
Conferencing. The USA toll-free, dial-in
number is 1(866) 659–0537 and the pass code
is 9933701.
Status: Open to the public, but without a
public comment period.
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 and
will expire on August 3, 2011.
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
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
PO 00000

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.
Matters to be Discussed: The agenda for the
conference call includes: NIOSH 10-Year
Review of its Division of Compensation
Analysis and Support (DCAS) Program;
Review of Public Comments to the Advisory
Board during May 2010 Meeting; Status of
DOL Policy Issuance on Use of Ruttenber
Data; Coordinating DCAS Support of Board
Activities; Advisory Board Subcommittee
and Work Group Updates; and, DCAS SEC
Petition Evaluations Update for the
November 2010 Advisory Board Meeting.
The agenda is subject to change as
priorities dictate.
Because there is not a public comment
period, written comments may be submitted.
Any written comments received will be
included in the official record of the meeting
and should be submitted to the contact
person below in advance of the meeting.
