SUMMARY:
HHS gives notice concerning the final effect of the HHS decision to designate a class of employees from the St. Louis Airport Storage Site in St. Louis, Missouri, as an addition to the Special Exposure Cohort (SEC) under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000. On July 14, 2010, as provided for under 42 U.S.C. 7384q(b), the Secretary of HHS designated the following class of employees as an addition to the SEC:
All employees of the Department of Energy, its predecessor agencies, and its contractors and subcontractors who worked in any area and in any job capacity at the St. Louis Airport Storage Site in St. Louis, Missouri from January 3, 1947 through November 2, 1971, for a number of work days aggregating at least 250 work days, occurring either solely under this employment or in combination with work days within the parameters established for one or more of the other classes of employees in the Special Exposure Cohort.
This designation became effective on August 13, 2010, as provided for under 42 U.S.C. 7384 l (14)(C). Hence, beginning on August 13, 2010, members of this class of employees, defined as reported in this notice, became members of the Special Exposure Cohort.
