ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL -9218-2]


Notice of Public Meeting of the Interagency Steering Committee on 
Radiation Standards

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will host a meeting 
of the Interagency Steering Committee on Radiation Standards (ISCORS) 
on November 9, 2010, in Washington, DC. The purpose of ISCORS is to 
foster early resolution and coordination of regulatory issues 
associated with radiation standards. Agencies represented as members of 
ISCORS include the following: EPA; Nuclear Regulatory Commission; 
Department of Energy; Department of Defense; Department of 
Transportation; Department of Homeland Security; Department of Labor's 
Occupational Safety and Health Administration; and the Department of 
Health and Human Services. ISCORS meeting observer agencies include the 
Office of Science and Technology Policy, Office of Management and 
Budget, Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, as well as 
representatives from both the States of Illinois and Pennsylvania. 
ISCORS maintains several objectives: (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. This is the one ISCORS 
meeting out of four held each year that 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, http://www.iscors.org. The final 
agenda for the November 9th meeting will be posted on the Web site 
shortly before the meeting.

DATES: The meeting will be held on November 9, 2010, from 1 p.m. to 4 
p.m.

ADDRESSES: The ISCORS meeting will be held in Room 152 at the EPA 
building located at 1310 L Street, NW., in Washington, DC. Attendees 
are required to present a photo ID such as a government agency photo 
identification badge or valid driver's license. Visitors and their
