DEFENSE NUCLEAR FACILITIES SAFETY BOARD


Sunshine Act Meeting

    Pursuant to the provision of the ``Government in the Sunshine Act'' 
(5 U.S.C. Sec. 552b), notice is hereby given of the Defense Nuclear 
Facilities Safety Board's (Board) meeting described below.

TIME AND DATE OF MEETING: 6:30 p.m., November 30, 2000.

PLACE: The Conference Center, 215 The Alley, Aiken, South Carolina 
29801.

STATUS: Open. While the Sunshine Act does not require that the 
scheduled discussion be conducted in a meeting, the Board has 
determined that an open meeting in this specific case furthers the 
public interest underlying both the Sunshine Act and the Board's 
enabling legislation.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: The Board is visiting the Savannah River Site 
(SRS) as part of its oversight of the Department of Energy's (DOE) 
management and operation of defense nuclear facilities. The site visit 
will include discussions of tritium activities at Defense Programs 
facilities as well as nuclear material stabilization activities at 
Environmental Management facilities.
    The Board wishes also to avail itself of the opportunity of this 
visit to meet with members of the public and other interested persons. 
This public meeting is intended to be informal and to provide an 
opportunity for members of the public, DOE employees, and DOE's 
contractor employees to provide comments and information directly to 
the Board regarding any matter affecting health and safety at SRS. 
Specific matters of particular interest to the Board during this visit 
include:
    1. Utilization of F- and H-Canyon Facilities.
    2. Stabilization, Packaging and Storage of Plutonium-bearing 
Materials.
    3. Stabilization of Highly Enriched Uranium Solutions.
    4. High Level Waste Management; Including Selection of an
