NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
Notice of Public Meeting of the Interagency Steering
Committee on Radiation Standards
AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
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 July 8,
2003, at 12:00 pm, 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 Occupational
Safety and Health 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 State representatives 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:
http://www.iscors.org
and the final agenda for the July meeting will be
posted on the site shortly before the meeting.
DATES: The meeting will be held from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m.
on Tuesday, July 8, 2003.
ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in the NRC
auditorium, at Two White Flint North, 11545 Rockville
Pike, Rockville, Maryland 20852.
