DEFENSE NUCLEAR FACILITIES 

SAFETY BOARD 

Sunshine Act Notice 

AGENCY: Defense Nuclear Facilities 

Safety Board. 

ACTION: Notice of Public Meeting and 

Hearing. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of 

the ‘‘Government in the Sunshine Act’’ 

(5 U.S.C. 552b), and as authorized by 

42 U.S.C. 2286b, notice is hereby given 

of the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety 

Board’s (Board) public meeting and 

hearing described below. The Board 

invites interested persons or groups to 

present comments, technical 

information, or data concerning safety 

issues related to the matters to be 

considered. 

TIME AND DATE OF MEETING: Session I: 1 

p.m.—5 p.m., October 2, 2012; Session 

II: 6:30 p.m.—9 p.m., October 2, 2012. 

PLACE: Knoxville Convention Center, 

701 Henley Street, Knoxville, Tennessee 

37902. 

STATUS Open. While the Government in 

the Sunshine Act does not require that 

the scheduled discussion be conducted 

in a meeting, the Board has determined 

that an open meeting in this specific 

case furthers the public interests 

underlying both the Sunshine Act and 

the Board’s enabling legislation. 

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: In Session I 

of this public meeting and hearing, the 

Board will examine the National 

Nuclear Security Administration’s 

(NNSA) efforts to mitigate risks to 

public and worker safety posed by aging 

defense nuclear facilities at the Y–12 

National Security Complex. The Board 

will receive testimony from NNSA and 

its contractors concerning the 

operations at existing Y–12 defense 

nuclear facilities, including Building 

9212, Building 9204–2E, and Building 

9215. The Board is interested in actions 

taken to address recent issues with 

conduct of operations, maintenance, 

and work planning; the contractor’s 

processes for identifying and resolving 

safety issues; and the effectiveness of 

NNSA’s oversight for nuclear 

operations. The Board will also examine 

the status of emergency preparedness at 

Y–12 and will receive testimony 

concerning how well NNSA and its 

contractor are prepared to respond to 

severe events and site emergencies. The 

Board is interested in lessons learned 

from the events at the Fukushima 

Daiichi complex and the actions taken 

to incorporate these lessons learned at 

the site-wide level and in defense 

nuclear facility operations. During 

Session II, the Board will receive 

testimony regarding factors that could 

affect the timely execution and safety of 

the Uranium Processing Facility (UPF) 

project. These factors include the 

federal project team’s strategy for 

identifying and resolving safety issues 

in a timely manner. The Board is also 

interested in exploring the potential 

safety impacts of NNSA’s decision to 

accelerate the acquisition of select 

processing capabilities and defer others 

to a later date, as well as the potential 

for weaknesses in technology 

development to impact safety. The 

public hearing portion of this 

proceeding is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 

2286b.
