ACRS Subcommittee Meetings In accordance with FACA, the agency is not required to apply the FACA requirements to meetings conducted by the Subcommittees of the NRC Advisory Committees if the Subcommittee’s recommendations would be independently reviewed by its parent Committee. Most, if not all, Subcommittee meetings are held to conduct preparatory activities and work that will be the subject of deliberations at a full Committee meeting. In an effort to maintain transparency of Subcommittee activities, the ACRS has chosen to conduct its Subcommittee meetings in accordance with the procedures noted above for ACRS Full Committee meetings, as appropriate and with the exception noted below, to facilitate public participation, and to provide a forum for stakeholders to express their views on regulatory matters being considered by the ACRS. One specific exception is that for Subcommittee meetings not subject to FACA, rather than publish an agenda in the Federal Register, the ACRS will publish agendas of Subcommittee meetings on the NRC public meeting schedule website and the ACRS public meeting website, which may be found at www.nrc.gov/pmns/mtg and www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/acrs/agenda. Consistent with past practice for full Committee and Subcommittee meetings, members of the public who desire to provide written or oral input to the Subcommittee may continue to do so and should contact the DFO five days VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:55 Jun 12, 2019 Jkt 247001 prior to the meeting, as practicable. When Subcommittee meetings are held at locations other than at NRC facilities, reproduction facilities may not be available at a reasonable cost. Accordingly, 50 copies of the materials to be used during the meeting should be provided for distribution at such meetings. Special Provisions When Proprietary Sessions Are To Be Held If it is necessary to hold closed sessions for the purpose of discussing matters involving proprietary information, persons with agreements permitting access to such information may attend those portions of the ACRS meetings where this material is being discussed upon confirmation that such agreements are effective and related to the material being discussed. The DFO should be informed of such an agreement at least five working days prior to the meeting so that it can be confirmed and a determination can be made regarding the applicability of the agreement to the material that will be discussed during the meeting. The minimum information provided should include information regarding the date of the agreement, the scope of material included in the agreement, the project or projects involved, and the names and titles of the persons signing the agreement. Additional information may be requested to identify the specific agreement involved. A copy of the executed agreement should be provided to the DFO prior to the beginning of the meeting for admittance to the closed session. Dated: June 7, 2019. Russell E.

I. Discussion

    Section 208 of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended 
(Pub. L. 93-438), defines an ``abnormal occurrence'' (AO) as an 
unscheduled incident or event that the NRC determines to be significant 
from the standpoint of public health or safety. The AO report, NUREG-
0090, Volume 41, ``Report to Congress on Abnormal Occurrences: Fiscal 
Year 2018''

(ADAMS Accession No. ML19157A308), describes those events that the NRC 
identified as AOs during FY 2018, based on the criteria defined in 
Appendix A of the report.
    The report describes three events involving NRC licensees that the 
agency identified as AOs in fiscal year (FY) 2018 based on the criteria 
defined in Appendix A, ``Abnormal Occurrence Criteria and Guidelines 
for Other Events of Interest,'' to the report. Two AOs were medical 
events as defined in title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 
CFR) part 35, ``Medical Use of Byproduct Material.'' The third AO event 
involved a category 2 source, as defined in 10 CFR part 37, ``Physical 
Protection of Category 1 and Category 2 Quantities of Radioactive 
Material.'' During this reporting period, the NRC did not identify any 
events at commercial nuclear power plants in the United States as AOs. 
The report also describes eight AOs that occurred in Agreement States 
(AS) and that were identified as AOs during FY 2018 based on the 
criteria defined in Appendix A. Seven were medical events, as defined 
in 10 CFR part 35, and one event involved radiography operations. Of 
the 11 AOs discussed in the report, one occurred in FY 2017 but is
