issues of interest pertaining to the regulation of NRC-regulated fuel 
cycle facilities.
    The seminar will be held in Rockville, Maryland, at the 
Universities of Maryland at the Shady Grove Campus Auditorium and will 
be open to the public. Fuel Cycle licensees and other interested 
parties were previously notified of the possibility of this meeting in 
a letter from Robert Pierson, dated November 28, 2005, (ADAMS accession

of discussion and volunteer speakers for the meeting. We are expecting

subjects of interest, with opportunity for followup discussion on each 
subject.
    The proposed items of discussion are listed below; however, the NRC 
is seeking additional speakers to discuss topics of a broad nature, 
relative to the nuclear fuel cycle. If you would like an opportunity to 
discuss an issue, or to offer an additional topic of discussion, please
