This service supports Government, Public Sector and Infrastructure Sector clients and Pro Sidian Team Members work as part of the Engagement Team Cadre to provide Hanford Advisory Board (HAB or Board) Facilitation Support and OBO The Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office. These general support services support The HAB, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Environmental Management Site Specific Advisory Board.

The HAB is a broadly representative body consisting of a balanced mix of diverse interests that are affected by Hanford environmental restoration and waste management issues.

There are 32 board members (each with one to two alternates) from Washington, Oregon and Idaho representing local and regional interests. The Board was created in 1994 by the DOE, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Tri-Party Agreement [TPA] agencies) to advise agencies on selected major policy issues related to Hanford cleanup. The TPA, or Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order, provides a cleanup schedule to bring the Hanford Site into compliance with state and federal environmental laws.

The Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office, is in need of general support services to support the Hanford Advisory Board for six issue-based standing committees:
1) Executive Issues Committee;
2) Tank Waste;
3) River & Plateau;
4) Health, Safety, & Environmental Protection;
5) Budgets & Contracts; and
6) Public Involvement and Communications. Each of the committees may meet up to twice per fiscal year quarter (i.e. around 24 total meetings per year) dependent on the required workload of the HAB. Joint committee meetings may be held for cross-cutting topics.

The Pro Sidian Engagement Team is responsible for labor, supplies, equipment, all logistics for meeting space, meeting execution/administration, recordkeeping, and other activities needed to facilitate interaction among the Tri-Party Agreement (TPA) agencies and members of the Board. Team Pro Sidian provides these services in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), the Environmental Management (EM) Charter and the HAB Operating Ground Rules.

Team Pro Sidian coordinates at least weekly with DOE, specifically the DOE Deputy Designated Federal Officer and the DOE Federal Coordinator. The key objective is to provide facilitation and general support services to the DOE in its mission with the HAB, which is for the Board to provide informed recommendations and advice on selected major policy issues.
