    Under section 161a. of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, 
the Commission may establish advisory bodies to make recommendations to 
it. Currently, four committees are in existence.
    (a) The Advisory Committee on Medical Uses of Isotopes (ACMUI) was 
established by the Atomic Energy Commission in July 1958. The ACMUI, 
composed of physicians and scientists, considers medical questions 
referred to it by the NRC staff and renders expert opinions regarding 
medical uses of radioisotopes. The ACMUI also advises

the NRC staff, as requested, on matters of policy regarding licensing of 
medical uses of radioisotopes.
    (b) The Advisory Committee for the Decontamination of Three Mile 
Island, Unit 2, was established by the NRC in October 1980. Its purpose 
is to obtain input and views from the residents of the Three Mile Island 
area and afford Pennsylvania government officials an opportunity to 
participate in the Commission's decisional process regarding cleanup for 
Three Mile Island, Unit 2.
    (c) The Nuclear Safety Research Review Committee (NSRRC) was 
established by the NRC in February 1988 for the purpose of reporting to 
the Commission through the Director of the Office of Nuclear Regulatory 
Research on important management matters in the direction of the 
Commission's nuclear safety research program. The committee activities 
cover all aspects of nuclear safety research including, but not limited 
to, accident management, plant aging, human factors and system 
reliability, earth science, waste disposal and seismic and structural 
engineering. In performing its activities, the committee evaluates and 
reports on the conformance of the nuclear safety research program to the 
NRC philosophy of nuclear regulatory research. The committee conducts 
specialized studies when requested by the Commission or Director of the 
Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research. The committee interacts with the 
Office of Research management staff and selected contractors in private 
industry, at national laboratories and universities.
    (d) The Licensing Support Network Advisory Review Panel (LSNARP) was 
established by the Commission on October 3, 1989, pursuant to 10 CFR 
2.1011(e) of the Commission's regulations. The LSNARP provides advice to 
the Commission on the design, development, and operation of the 
Licensing Support Network (LSN) an electronic information management 
system for use in the Commission's high-level radioactive waste (HLW) 
licensing proceeding. Membership consists of those interests that will 
be affected by the use of the LSN, and selected Federal agencies with 
expertise in large-scale electronic information systems. The individual 
representatives of these interests and agencies possess expertise in 
management information science and in managing records of the 
Commission's licensing process for the HLW repository.
