Our Vision:  Eliminate foreign material intrusion events in the nuclear industry in support of the industry goal of zero fuel failures by aligning industry practices and programs.

Our Mission:  Develop and communicate standards for best practices that enable the nuclear industry to achieve and sustain excellence in Foreign Material Exclusion (FME).
