SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The President directed 

that the Commission be established to 

conduct a comprehensive review of 

policies for managing the back end of 

the nuclear fuel cycle. The Commission 

will provide advice and make 

recommendations on issues including 

alternatives for the storage, processing, 

and disposal of civilian and defense 

spent nuclear fuel and nuclear waste. 

The Co-chairs of the Commission 

requested the formation of the T&S 

Subcommittee to answer the question: 

‘‘[s]hould the US change the way in 

which it is storing used nuclear fuel and 

high level waste while one or more final 

disposal locations are established?’’ 

Purpose of the Meeting: The purpose 

of the meeting is to hear from Federal, 

State and local officials, industry 

representatives, and others having 

expertise in siting interim storage 

facilities for spent fuel, and for other 

similar facilities. The intent is to focus 

on what attributes and processes have, 

or have not, worked to support 

successful siting of potentially 

controversial facilities in a manner that 

is transparent, equitable, and that is 

viewed as credible to the public. The 

subcommittee will also explore 

transportation and logistics issues 

related to such siting efforts. 

Tentative Agenda: The meeting is 

expected to begin at approximately 8:30 

a.m. on Thursday, September 23, 2010, 

with speaker presentations beginning at 

8:45 a.m. and ending at 2:15 p.m. A 

public comment period will be held 

from 2:15 p.m. to 3 p.m. 

Public Participation: Subcommittee 

meetings are not required to be open to 

the public; however, the Commission 

has elected to open the presentation 

sessions of the meeting to the public. 

Individuals and representatives of 

organizations who would like to offer 

comments and suggestions may do so at 

the end of the public session on 

Thursday, September 23, 2010. 

Approximately 45 minutes will be 

reserved for public comments from 2:15 

p.m. to 3 p.m. Time allotted per speaker 

will depend on the number who wish to 

speak but will not exceed 5 minutes. 

The Designated Federal Officer is 

empowered to conduct the meeting in a 

fashion that will facilitate the orderly 

conduct of business. Those wishing to 

speak should register to do so beginning 

at 8 a.m. on September 23, 2010, at the
