NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
Seeks Qualified Candidates for the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
ACTION: Request for resumes.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NRC seeks qualified candidates for the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards ACRS. Submit resumes to Ms. Makeeka Compton and Ms. Jamila Perry, ACRS, Mail Stop:
T2B50, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555
0001, or email Makeeka.Compton@
nrc.gov and Jamila.Perry@nrc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ACRS
is a part-time advisory group, which is statutorily mandated by the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended. The ACRS provides independent expert advice on matters related to the safety of existing and proposed nuclear reactor facilities and on the adequacy of proposed reactor safety standards. Of primary importance are the safety issues associated with the operation of commercial nuclear power plants in the United States and regulatory initiatives, including risk-informed and performance-based regulation, license renewal, power uprates, and the use of mixed oxide and high burnup fuels.

increased emphasis is being given to safety issues associated with new reactor designs and technologies, including passive system reliability and thermal hydraulic phenomena, use of digital instrumentation and control, international codes and standards used in multinational design certifications, materials, and structural engineering, nuclear analysis and reactor core performance, and nuclear materials and radiation protection.
In addition, the ACRS may be requested to provide advice on radiation protection, radioactive waste management, and earth sciences in the agencys licensing reviews for fuel fabrication and enrichment facilities, and for waste disposal facilities. The ACRS also has some involvement in security matters related to the integration of safety and security of commercial reactors. See the NRC
website at https www.nrc.gov/aboutnrc/regulatory/advisory/acrs.html for additional information about the ACRS.
Criteria used to evaluate candidates include education and experience, demonstrated skills in nuclear reactor safety matters, the ability to solve complex technical problems, and the ability to work collegially on a board, panel, or committee. The Commission, in selecting its Committee members, also considers the need for specific expertise to accomplish the work expected to be before the ACRS. ACRS
Committee members are appointed for four-year terms with no term limits. The Commission looks to fill one vacancy as a result of this request. Candidates for this position must have extensive experience in nuclear fuel cycle chemistry, structural integrity, and/or metallurgy applicable to nuclear facilities and/or nuclear power plant systems or components. It would be useful if candidates also have
