Environmental Management Site-Specific Advisory Board (EM SSAB) Chairs Meeting Notice

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has published a Federal Register notice announcing a hybrid in-person and virtual meeting of the chairs of the Environmental Management Site-Specific Advisory Boards (EM SSAB). These boards provide independent citizen and stakeholder input on the cleanup of nuclear weapons production and research sites across the United States. The meeting is being convened under the requirements of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), which mandates that federal agencies publicly announce advisory committee meetings in the Federal Register in advance. This ensures transparency and allows members of the public to attend or submit comments. The EM SSAB Chairs meeting brings together the leadership of multiple local advisory boards from sites such as Hanford, Savannah River, Oak Ridge, and others. The purpose is to coordinate oversight efforts, share site-specific progress updates, and discuss policy recommendations related to nuclear waste cleanup and environmental remediation activities managed by the DOE Office of Environmental Management.
