Notice of Public Meeting of the

Interagency Steering Committee on

Radiation Standards

AGENCIES: Nuclear Regulatory

Commission and Environmental

Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC) will host a meeting

of the Interagency Steering Committee

on Radiation Standards (ISCORS) on

June 21, 2001, in Rockville, Maryland.

The purpose of ISCORS is to foster early

resolution and coordination of

regulatory issues associated with

radiation standards. Agencies

represented on ISCORS include the

NRC, U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency, U.S. Department of Energy,

U.S. Department of Defense, U.S.

Department of Transportation, the

Administration of the U.S. Department

of Labor, and the U.S. Department of

Health and Human Services. The Office

of Science and Technology Policy, the

Office of Management and Budget, and

a State Department representative may

be observers at meetings. The objectives

of ISCORS are to: (1) Facilitate a

consensus on allowable levels of

radiation risk to the public and workers;

(2) promote consistent and scientifically

sound risk assessment and risk

management approaches in setting and

implementing standards for

occupational and public protection from

ionizing radiation; (3) promote

completeness and coherence of Federal

standards for radiation protection; and

(4) identify interagency radiation

protection issues and coordinate their

resolution. ISCORS meetings include

presentations by the chairs of the

subcommittees and discussions of

current radiation protection issues.

Committee meetings normally involve

pre-decisional intra-governmental

discussions and, as such, are normally

not open for observation by members of

the public or media. One of the four

ISCORS meetings each year is open to

all interested members of the public.

There will be time on the agenda for

members of the public to provide

comments. Summaries of previous

ISCORS meetings are available at the

ISCORS web site, www.iscors.org and

the final agenda for the June meeting

will be posted on the site shortly before
