On that date the 1-MW NaKcooledExperimental Breeder Reactor I,located at the INEEL in Idaho, lit four lightbulbs. On December 21, 1951, the reactorsupplied all the power needs of the buildingthat houses the reactor. Subsequently, in1953, EBR-I demonstrated proof of thebreeding of 239 Pu from 238 U.The long-term vision of the designers ofEBR-I was that all uranium, not just a smallportion of it, would serve humankind formillennia. Their vision was translated intothe design and construction of twenty largerliquid metal cooled fast breeder reactorsin several countries. Many of the designprinciples embodied in EBR-I are replicatedin all modern fast reactors.This event, fifty years ago, was truly the birthof the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Thevision of the early pioneers who designed andoperated EBR-I will undoubtedly becomereality as humankind seeks abundant andenvironmentally responsible energy in thecoming decades.A reception and program will be held onMonday evening, November 12, to celebratethis momentous event.Tickets can be purchased on-site at the ANSRegistration Desk for $20.00 each. Eachguest attending the reception will receive anattractive memento that depicts EBR-I andthe four lightbulbs that were lit on December20, 1951.VIRGINIA CITY SALOON PARTYTuesday, November 13, 20016:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.Established in 1859, Virginia City becamethe richest mining town in the world.

All invited. Chair: Leon WaltersHilton Theater8:00 a.m.From the vantage of 2050—perhaps sooner—the ANS meetingof 2001 may come to be seen as the turning point for the nuclearindustry. The Bush Administration has clearly stated that thecontinuing use of nuclear power and its further deployment mustbe part of any rational energy planning. Moreover, although theUnited States has not joined other nations in endorsing the KyotoProtocol specifics, reducing greenhouse emissions must be centralto any sustainable energy policy. For any hope of significant greenhousegas reduction, nuclear power is required.For these reasons, the ANS 2001 Meeting Organizing Committeehas structured the plenary sessions to provide both a retrospective onwhere we have been and a prospective on where we might go. And,where we might go is surprisingly exciting. We usually think ofourselves as suppliers of energy in the form of electricity and of otherimportant but less visible services ranging from health care to foodirradiation. More recently, it is being recognized that the transportationservices energy market—now trapped in the fossil fuel industry andtherefore inaccessible to nuclear power—may soon begin a transitionto hydrogen. And, if hydrogen becomes the staple fuel of transportationduring the 21st century, nuclear energy has an entirely new energymarket that could, itself, become more than double the electricitymarket.Reactor Physics: General—I, Tues. a.m.(Data, Analysis, & Operations for NCS, Tues. p.m.)*Advanced Nodal Methods: The Legacy of Allan F.

All invited.Chairs: Leon Walters, Alexander StanculescuN-11:00 p.m.There is promise that recovery of the nuclear enterprise is happeningafter the precipitous decline of the last decade. Unfortunately, at thesame time, a significant number of engineers and scientists haveretired from the workforce, and a great deal of undocumentedknowledge has left with them. These people were not replaced dueto lack of funds. At the same time, enrollment in nuclear-relateduniversity programs declined. Without the transfer of knowledgefrom one generation to another through continuity in the workforce,a concerted effort must be made to preserve this knowledge througheffective archiving methods. A panel of experts will be assembled todiscuss what knowledge must be preserved, how it should be archivedfor the next generation, and how such an endeavor could be achieved.There will be a question-and-answer session after the last presentation.PANELISTS:• Roland Boehme (FzK–Germany)• William A.

Eminentspeakers for the President's Special Session will present a wide rangeof hydrogen application and experience. Discussions will explorethe opportunities for nuclear power in the production of hydrogenfor fuel cell applications, hydrogen for cleaner fossil fuel harvesting,and hydrogen safety with a look at the Hindenburg mystery.INTRODUCTIONS:• Gail Marcus, President, American Nuclear Society• David Scott, Founding Director, Institute for Integrated EnergySystems (Univ of Victoria–Canada)/Vice President for the Americas(IAHE)SPEAKERS:• Building Sustainable Energy Systems: The Role of Nuclear-DerivedHydrogen, Hans-Holger Rogner (IAEA–Austria/IntergovernmentalPanel on Climate Change)• The Role of Fuel Cells and Imagining Future Hydrogen Systems,Ged McLean (Univ of Victoria–Canada)• Nuclear-Electrolysis Synergies: For Neat Hydrogen Production andClean(er) Fossil Reserves Harvesting, Alexander Stuart (ElectrolyserCorp–Canada)• The Hindenburg Mystery Resolved and Matters of HydrogenSafety, Addison Bain (formerly NASA)WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14 • 10:00 A.M.*U.S. Department of Energy Facility Safety Culture: LessonsLearned from the 11th Annual Energy Facility ContractorsGroup Safety Analysis Working Group Workshop–Panel, sponsoredby NISD; cosponsored by OPD. Session Organizer: Kevin O'Kula(Westinghouse SMS). All invited. Chair: Michael Hitchler (WSMS)N-110:00 a.m.This panel highlights the key technical innovations, lessons learned,and major themes identified from the June 2001 Embedded TopicalEnergy Facility Contractors Group Safety Analysis Workshop (June18–21, 2001, Milwaukee). The workshop was the 11th annualtechnical conference in a series promoting consistent and standardizedsafety analysis tailored to the hazard level posed by DOE facilities.Safe operation and utilization of existing facilities; new missions;consolidation of strategic infrastructure; and dispositioning of older,nonviable facilities within the DOE Complex are the recurring themesof the workshop. Additionally, this year's meeting discussed newfacilities and operational hazards of "non-standard" facilities such asaccelerators and mixed-oxide fuel fabrication installations.The meeting provided a forum for safety analysts and sharing oflessons learned, operational insights, and achievable solutions toComplex-wide issues. Implementation of 10 CFR 830 Nuclear SafetyManagement Rule, accident phenomenology and computer modeling,natural phenomena hazards, integrated safety management processimplementation, decontamination and decommissioning, updatingthe authorization basis, and other key topics were covered. Specificsubjects covered in panels and technical papers were as follows:1.DOE and contractor perspectives on implementation of theNuclear Safety Management Rule2.experience implementing integrated safety management processes3.transportation of fissile and nuclear waste—intersite issues4.computer code improvements and software quality assurance issues5.implementing integrated systems for hazard and risk analysesand achieving "real" safety improvements6.statistical methods in accident analysis7.consequence determination and building wake effects8.safety assessment of a MOX fuel fabrication facility.A panel of selected representatives from Department of Energyheadquarters, field offices, contractors, independent oversight,and safety analysis consultants will discuss the major methodology,regulatory, and technical areas that dominated the workshop.PANELISTS TO BE DETERMINED.Materials Compatibility in Liquid-Metal Coolants—I, sponsoredby MSTD; cosponsored by AAD.

THE DOE NUCLEAR CRITICALTY SAFETY PROGRAMFriday, November 16, 2001 • 9:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.Room: Sierra 1 & 2PURPOSE:The US Department of Energy Nuclear Criticality Safety Program (NCSP) was initiated in response to DNFSB Recommendation 97-2,"Continuation of Criticality Safety". The NCSP is a comprehensive, crosscutting program that integrates the need to maintain the UScriticality safety infrastructure with effective support for criticality safety programs throughout the DOE complex. This session presentsthe status of the NCSP elements with highlights of recent accomplishments and descriptions of near-term plans. Presentations will begiven by DOE management and the DNFSB staff. These sessions, while not part of the official ANS program, have been arranged throughthe courtesy of the ANS Headquarters staff. The presentations are intended to report on the DOE NCS Program, but because of the globalapplication of the products developed by the DOE NCSP, feedback is encouraged from anyone interested in the needs of a diverse, wellorganizedcriticality safety program. International, NRC and licensees NCS personnel are encouraged to participate. Extensive audienceparticipation is anticipated.DETAILED SCHEDULE:9:30 a.m. Introduction (A.
