DEFENSE NUCLEAR FACILITIES

SAFETY BOARD

Sunshine Act Meeting

Pursuant to the provision of the

‘‘Government in the Sunshine Act’’ (5

U.S.C. § 552b), notice is hereby given of

the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety

Board’s (Board) meeting described

below.

TIME AND DATE OF MEETING: 9 a.m., May

23, 2001.

PLACE: The Defense Nuclear Facilities

Safety Board, Public Hearing Room, 625

Indiana Avenue, NW, Suite 300,

Washington, DC 20004.

STATUS: Open.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: The

Department of Energy (DOE) requires

contractors at defense nuclear facilities

to develop and implement nuclear

quality assurance programs to ensure

the requisite quality of operations,

products, and services that directly

affect nuclear safety-related systems and

operations. Activities required to be

conducted under established quality

assurance programs extend from

scientific studies, to the design,

construction, operation, and

deactivation of defense nuclear

facilities. Notwithstanding contract and

rule requirements concerning quality

assurance, there is evidence that quality

assurance programs at defense nuclear

facilities are not consistently achieving

their quality objectives.

This is the second in a series of open

meetings being held by the Defense

Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (Board)

on the topic of quality assurance within

DOE nuclear defense activities. Board

inquiries will address (1) quality

assurance requirements and practices in

related industries, and (2) the

implementation of DOE quality

assurance requirements at selected sites.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Richard A. Azzaro, General Counsel,

Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board,

625 Indiana Avenue, NW, Suite 700,

Washington, DC 20004, (800) 788–4016.

This is a toll-free number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board

reserves its right to further schedule and

otherwise regulate the course of this

meeting, to recess, reconvene, postpone

or adjourn the meeting, and otherwise

exercise its authority under the Atomic

Energy Act of 1954, as amended.

Dated: April 30, 2001.

John T. Conway,

Chairman.
