SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose of the Board: The purpose of the Board is to make
recommendations to DOE-EM and site management in the areas of
environmental restoration, waste management, and related activities.
Purpose of the Consent Order Subcommittee (COC): It is the mission
of the COC to review the Consent Order, evaluate its strengths and
weaknesses, and make recommendation as to how to improve the Consent
Order. It is also within the mission of this committee to review and
ensure implementation of NNMCAB Recommendation 2019-02, Improving the
Utility of the Consent Order with Supplementary Information. The COC
will work with the NNMCAB Risk Evaluation and Management Subcommittee
to review the risk-based approaches used to determine the
prioritization of cleanup actions, as well as the ``relative risk
ranking'' of the campaigns, targets, and milestones by the NNMCAB, to
be recommended for use by the DOE EM Los Alamos Field Office (EM-LA)
both within and outside of those activities covered by the Consent
Order.
Purpose of the Risk Evaluation and Management Subcommittee (REMC):
The REMC provides external citizen-based oversight and recommendations
to the DOE EM-LA on human and ecological health risk resulting from
historical, current, and future hazardous and radioactive legacy waste
operations at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The REMC will, to
the extent feasible, stay informed of DOE EM-LA and LANL's
environmental restoration and long-term environmental stewardship
programs and plans. The REMC will also work with the NNMCAB COC to
provide DOE EM-LA and LANL with the public's desires in determining
cleanup priorities. The REMC will prepare recommendations that
represent to the best of committee's knowledge and ability to
determine, the public's position on human and ecological health risk
issues pertaining to direct radiation or contaminant exposure to soils,
air, surface and groundwater quality, or the agricultural and
ecological environment.
