The American Nuclear Society currently supports eight Consensus Committees. A Consensus Committee is the balanced body that conducts the consensus ballot on proposed standards in order for them to become official, approved standards. Each Consensus Committee has a defined scope of activities. The eight ANS Consensus Committees are as follows:
Environmental and Siting (ES) Consensus Committee
Fuel, Waste, and Decommissioning (FWD) Consensus Committee
Joint Committee on Nuclear Risk Management (ANS/ASME)
Large Light Water Reactor (LLWR) Consensus Committee
Nuclear Criticality Safety (NCS) Consensus Committee
Non-Reactor Nuclear Facilities (NRNF) Consensus Committee
Research and Advanced Reactors (RAR) Consensus Committee
Safety and Radiological Analyses (SRA)
