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 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 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,
rechartered on March 22, 2016,
pursuant to Executive Order 13708, and
will expire on September 30, 2017.
Purpose: The 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, 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

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 77 / Thursday, April 21, 2016 / Notices
reasonable likelihood that such
radiation doses may have endangered
the health of members of this class. SPR
was established to aid the Advisory
Board in carrying out its duty to advise
the Secretary, HHS, on dose
reconstruction. SPR 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 (Oak
Ridge Associated Universities—ORAU).
Matters for Discussion: The agenda for
the Subcommittee meeting includes:
Discussion of procedures in the
following ORAU and DCAS technical
documents:
OCAS Technical Information Bulletin
(TIB) 0014 (‘‘Rocky Flats Internal
Dosimetry Coworker Extension’’),
ORAU OTIB 0013 (‘‘Individual Dose
Adjustment Procedures for Y–12 Dose
Reconstructions’’), ORAU OTIB 0029
(‘‘Internal Dose Reconstructions for Y–

Reconstructions for Hanford’’), ORAU
OTIB 0050 (‘‘The Use of Rocky Flats
Neutron Dose Reconstruction Project
Data in Dose Reconstructions’’), ORAU
OTIB 0060 (‘‘Internal Dose
Reconstructions’’), Program Evaluation
Report (PER) 003 (‘‘The Effects of
Adding Ingestion Intakes to Bethlehem
Steel Cases’’), PER 004 (‘‘Application of
Photofluorography at the Pinellas
Plant’’), PER 005 (‘‘Misinterpreted
Application of External Dose Factor for
Hanford Dose Reconstructions’’), PER
029 (‘‘Hanford TBD Revision’’), PER 042
(‘‘Linde Ceramic Plant TBD Revision’’),
PER 045 (‘‘Aliquippa Forge TBD
Revision’’), ORAU PROC 0042
(‘‘Incomplete Monitoring at Y–12’’),
ORAU RPRT 0044 (‘‘Analysis of
Bioassay Data with Significant Fraction
of Less-Than Results’’); 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.
