DOE/NSF Nuclear Science Advisory Committee

NSAC is an advisory committee that provides official advice to the Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) on the national program for basic nuclear science research. NSAC is chartered under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). The management of NSAC alternates between the NSF and the DOE, and is currently being provided by the NSF.
