Recommendation 2004–1, Oversight of
Complex, High-Hazard Nuclear
Operations. The Board is reviewing
DOE’s and the National Nuclear
Security Administration’s (NNSA)
safety management and oversight 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 and NNSA’s defense nuclear
facilities. We are conducting this series
of public meetings to collect
information needed to understand and
address any health or safety concerns
that may require Board action.
In the March 31, 2011, meeting the
Board will explore in more depth
Federal safety management and
oversight policies being developed and
administered 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 evolving
approach to federal oversight and its
relationship to contractor assurance
systems as well as the effect of changes
to DOE directives. The public hearing
portion of this proceeding is authorized
by 42 U.S.C. 2286b.
