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 to the Secretary,
HHS, on the development of guidelines

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 for Dose
Reconstruction Reviews was established to
aid the Advisory Board in carrying out its
duty to advise the Secretary, HHS, on dose
reconstruction.
Matters To Be Discussed: The agenda for
the Subcommittee meeting includes:
selection of individual radiation dose
reconstruction cases to be considered for
review by the Procedures Subcommittee to
evaluate the implementation of the Program
Evaluation Report: OCAS–PER–012—
Evaluation of Highly Insoluble Plutonium
Compounds; discussion of dose
reconstruction cases under review (sets 7—

management and assurance activities. The
