The Department of Energy is seeking new members to join its federal advisory board for the Office of Environmental Management, according to a Monday Federal Register notice.
The deadline for nominations to the Environmental Management Advisory Board is May 15.
Customarily DOE draws the advisory board members for the $8-billion-plus Office of Environmental Management from the ranks of government, industry and academia.
The federal advisory panel “provides strategic management advice on where and how to focus the program’s resources to achieve maximum impact and greatest risk reduction,” for the government’s nuclear waste liability, according to the notice.
Potential members will be vetted prior to appointment. Members are appointed to two-year terms and the advisory board typically meets twice per year, according to the notice.
The advisory board website currently lists 14 members on the panel. Nominees should email their name, resume and any letters of support to kelly.snyder@em.doe.gov.
