Formed in 1998 to advise the Laboratory on selected issues, particularly environmental, safety, and health issues, the Community Advisory Council (CAC) consists of representatives from 27 local business, civic, education, employee, environment, and health organizations.

In October 2005, the Council received an Appreciation Award from the U.S. Department of Energy for its commitment, initiative, resolve, and wisdom in responding to the issues and needs of the community and the Laboratory.

The CAC sets its own agenda, brings forth issues important to the community, and works to provide consensus recommendations to Laboratory management.  Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month, beginning at 6:30 p.m. at Berkner Hall on the Brookhaven National Laboratory site. 

CAC meetings are open to the public and interested community members are encouraged to attend.  An opportunity for public comment is offered  at each meeting.  Applications for membership are always welcome.
