The conference will be designed to enhance understanding of DICCE requirements, obtain Industry feedback, provide a networking forum for all interested parties, and maximize opportunities for small business participation. The conference will be held at 1000 Independence Avenue (Forrestal Building), SW, Washington D.C. in the Forrestal Auditorium (Room GE-086) on April 18, 2006, beginning at 9:00 a.m. An additional session will be held on April 19, 2006, if reservations exceed the capacity of the auditorium. Participants are asked to specify their preferred date (April 18 or 19) in the event an additional session is needed. NNSA will attempt to honor preferences on a first-come, first-served basis, and will notify participants of their reserved date, should two sessions be held. Due to the size of the auditorium and previous expressed interest, each firm is limited to 3 attendees. Advance registration is required. Registration forms are posted with this announcement and must be received by close of business April 10, 2006. In view of program operational requirements, attendance is limited to domestic firms.

A question and answer session will be held following these presentations.
