DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY


Determination to Establish the Advisory Committee on External 
Regulation of Department of Energy Nuclear Safety

    Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-463), 
and Title 41, Code of Federal Regulations, Subpart 101-6, Final Rule on 
Federal Advisory Committee Management, I hereby certify the Advisory 
Committee on External Regulation of DOE Nuclear Safety is necessary and 
in the public interest in connection with the performance of duties 
imposed on the Department of Energy by law. This determination follows 
consultation with the Committee Management Secretariat of the General 
Services Administration, pursuant to 41 CFR subpart 101-6.10.
    The purpose of the Committee is to provide the Secretary of Energy, 
the White House Office of Environmental Policy and the Office of 
Management and Budget with advice, information, and recommendations on 
whether and how new and existing Department of Energy facilities and 
operations, except those operations covered under Executive Order 
12344, might be externally regulated to improve nuclear safety. The 
Committee will provide an organized forum for a diverse set of affected 
Federal agency representatives and non-Federal experts and stakeholders 
to conduct an in-depth assessment of the technical, regulatory, 
institutional, and resource issues.
    Committee members will be chosen to ensure an appropriately 
balanced membership to bring into account a diversity of viewpoints, 
including representatives from States and tribal governments, national 
and local environment, safety, and health organizations, labor unions, 
Department of Energy operating contractors, affected Federal agencies, 
and others who may significantly contribute to the deliberations of the 
committee. All meetings of this Committee will be noticed ahead of time 
in the Federal Register.
