SUMMARY:Drones and the Future of Chemical\, Biological\, Radiological and Nuclear Threats
DESCRIPTION:The George Mason University Schar School of Policy and Government Center for Security Policy Studies will host an web event expert panel discussion on March 26 on “Drones and the Future of Chemical\, Biological\, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Threats“. \nThe panel explores the risks posed by the convergence of chemical\, biological\, radiological\, and nuclear CBRN weapons and drones. \nDrones allow terrorists to collect intelligence prior to an attack\, bypass ground-based physical barriers\, and carry out highly effective chemical and biological weapons attacks. For state actors\, the growth and proliferation of drone swarms offer new\, sophisticated ways to carry out CBRN attacks\, defeat traditional CBRN weapons\, and respond to a successful attack. At the same time\, the United States Department of Defense is working hard to combat these threats and recently issued a new strategy around countering small drones. \nThe underlying question spanning the panel is: how well prepared is the United States and the global community to tackle the challenges drones pose for CBRN warfare? And what more can be done? \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS\nNicole Thomas \nDivision Chief for Strategy and Policy @Joint Counter-UAS Office\, Department of Defense \nNicole Thomas is a civilian with the U.S. Army and the Division Chief for Strategy and Policy in the Joint Counter-Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office. She is a graduate of the United States Army War College. \nZak Kallenborn \nPolicy Fellow @Schar School of Policy and Government \nZachary Kallenborn is an analyst in horrible ways people kill each other: weapons of mass destruction\, WMD terrorism\, and drone swarms.

SUMMARY:Seismic Design Criteria for Structures\, Systems\, and Components in Nuclear Facilities
DESCRIPTION:A virtual discussion on Seismic Design Criteria for Structures\, Systems\, and Components in Nuclear Facilities will be held March 18\, 2021. \nJoin SEI Host Jennifer Goupil for a big-picture discussion of the state of seismic design in nuclear facilities with the chair and vice chair the ASCE/SEI Nuclear Standards Committee Andrew Whittaker\, George Abatt\, who led the effort to revise ASCE 43 and committee member Brian McDonald. \nThe 2019 edition of ASCE/SEI 43 Seismic Design Criteria for Structures\, Systems\, and Components in Nuclear Facilities ensures that nuclear facilities are properly designed to withstand the effects of earthquake ground shaking while retaining the desired functionally\, expressed as target performance goals. Because nuclear facilities process\, store\, or handle radioactive materials in a form and quantity that pose potential hazard to the workers\, the public\, or the environment\, it is desirable that nuclear facilities have a lower probably of structural damage caused by earthquake shaking than commercial buildings. While this standard is intended for use in design of new facilities\, it can also be used for existing facilities. \nThe expert panel will begin the session with an overview discussion on the state of the industry\, the role the standard plays in the profession\, and why it was updated. Then\, Andrew and George will present the technical changes in ASCE/SEI 43-19\, provide relevant design examples\, and wrap up the session with a live Q&A from the audience. \nResources: \n\nASCE/SEI 43-19 Publication\nSeismic Analysis of Safety-Related Nuclear Structures (4-16)\nStructural Design of Air and Gas Ducts for Power Stations and Industrial Boiler Applications: Second Edition\n\n  \n

DESCRIPTION:The March 2021 Meeting of the National Academies of Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology will take place March 3-4 in a virtual format. \nThe public is invited to attend the event in which experts will experts in chemistry and chemical engineering will convene to explore three emerging topics: \n\nDiversity\, equity\, and inclusion in chemistry and chemical engineering\nVulnerabilities in U.S. chemical weapons detection\, identification\, and tracing\nUndergraduate chemistry curriculums\n\nFor CBRNE Central readers who may be specifically interested in the chemical weapons portion of the meeting\, the session on Identifying and Accounting for Vulnerabilities in U.S. Chemical Weapons Detection\, Identification\, and Tracing Capabilities will be held Thursday\, March 4\, 2021 10:05 AM to 1:15 PM Eastern. \nAbout the CW Session \nChemical weapons remain an ever-present\, high level threat to domestic and global security despite international efforts to regulate the weaponization of chemical agents. The recent use of deadly chemical agents in alleged assassination attempts of civilian targets has elevated interest in and attention to these weapons. This heightened awareness underscores critical knowledge gaps in the development of chemical weapons detection and identification technologies. The targeted deployment of chemical agents also demonstrates the advantages of employing forensic chemistry to investigate and trace chemical weapons. \nThis session will explore the current state of the science in the field of chemical weapons detection\, identification\, and tracing\, and will highlight opportunities for additional research in this space. \nThis event will be webcast from the NASEM webpage. A reminder on how to view the event webcast will be sent to the email you use to register. A webcast recording will be made available following the event.

SUMMARY:Radioactive Sources: Applications and Alternative Technologies
DESCRIPTION:The Nuclear Radiation and Studies Board will convene a meeting on Radioactive Sources: Applications and Alternative Technologies on February 25\, 2021. \nPortions of the meeting are open for virtual public attendance and Q&A participation. \n\nMeeting Materials \n\n\n\nGarrison – Remarks from the National Nuclear Security Administration\nLieberman et al – Cobalt-60 Supply Chain and Market Study\nPublic Agenda\n\n\nThe purpose of this Sandia National Laboratories’ sponsored study is to support existing and future activities under the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Office of Radiological Security (ORS) program to reduce the use of high-risk radiological materials in commercial applications. The study will update the 2008 National Academies consensus study on “Radiation Source: Use and Replacement” by reviewing the current state of high-risk radionuclide applications by sector (e.g.\, industrial\, research\, medical\, and other commercial applications) and by reviewing the current state of existing technologies on the market that are or could be used to replace radioisotopic technologies in those applications. \n  \n  \n
