DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention


Advisory Board on Radiation and Worker Health (ABRWH or the 
Advisory Board), Subcommittee for Dose Reconstruction Reviews (SDRR), 
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 for the 
aforementioned subcommittee:
    Time and Date: 10:30 a.m.-5:00 p.m., EST, January 30, 2017.
    Place: Audio Conference Call via FTS Conferencing.
    Status: Open to the public, but without a public comment period. 
The public is welcome to submit written comments in advance of the 
meeting, to the contact person below. Written comments received in 
advance of the meeting will be included in the official record of the 
meeting. The public is also welcome to listen to the meeting by joining 
the teleconference at the USA toll-free, dial-in number at 1-866-659-
0537 and the pass code is 9933701.
    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 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 for Discussion: The agenda for the Subcommittee meeting 
includes the following dose reconstruction program quality management 
and assurance activities: dose reconstruction cases under review from 
Sets 14-23, including the Oak Ridge sites (Y-12, K-25, Oak Ridge 
National Laboratory), Hanford, Feed Materials Production Center 
(``Fernald''), Mound Plant, Rocky Flats Plant, Nevada Test Site, Idaho 
National Laboratory, Savannah River Site, and other facilities.
    The agenda is subject to change as priorities dictate.
