What is the function of the Failure Review Oversight Board (FROB)?
The FROB is chartered to independently review the methods, conclusions and corrective action recommendations of the Russian commission’s investigation, and to report on its findings. The FROB does not conduct its own investigation. ILS obtains regulatory approval from the U.S. government for the FROB to engage in detailed discussions with Khrunichev and other Russian parties regarding the investigation of the failure.
