  8. SWG Mission and Scope • Attain the highest levels of safety and regulatory performance in facilities • Advocate strong, effective implementation of ISMS • Promote best management and operating practices; • Facilitate the exchange of operating experiences and information on safety/regulatory programs • Provide access to a network of subject matter experts (SME) • Identify opportunities to save and/or avoid costs • Arrange for training and awareness workshops to enhance the competency of professionals • Facilitate assist visits when requested

  9. FY18 Key Achievements • Six regulatory reform recommendations were presented to the EFCOG board and DOE in March with potential complex wide savings of $300M-600M per year • Worked with DOE to address contractor concerns associated with the 10CFR 851 TA. DOE provided guidance to be in full compliance • Moderated a senior contractor safety culture panel at the annual DOE SCIP Meeting in May • CAS Effectiveness LOIs were developed and posted

  10. FY18 Key Achievements • EFCOG continues to implement recommendations made in the 2017 MASL Team report. This allowed DOE to close the EM QA focus area related to this activity. This effort will require ongoing support from EFCOG to be effective • Review and rank NNSA and DOE-AU NSR&D projects • Established a Reactor Safety Focus Group • Continued Updating of SME Lists

  11. FY18 Key Achievements • Assisted with issuance of DOE Chemical Management Handbook (DOE-HDBK-1139), Vol. 3/3 • Assisted with gaining approval to revise the DOE Electrical Safety Handbook • Completed Radiation Protection (RP) Partnership Survey identifying educational, mentoring & individual Site initiatives to address the loss of senior, experienced staff and to ready younger staff for success • Conducted extensive RP technical and programmatic benchmarking initiatives with results posted online

  12. FY 2018 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Complete OccMed benchmarking for Medical Services (emergency response services, urgent/acute care, wellness program and PT) • Issue recommendation for appropriate use of direct reading IH monitoring equipment • Compile recommendations for updating DOE Electrical Safety Handbook • Complete heat stress hazard control benchmarking (use of monitoring devices and physiological monitoring practices)

  13. FY 2018 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Hazards and Accident Analysis Handbook • DOE-STD-1027, Nuclear Facility Hazard Categorization and Accident Analysis Techniques • Cancellation of DOE O 5480.30, Reactor Safety Design Criteria with suggested replacement design criteria for new reactors • Support DOE-STD-3014 • DOE G 424.1-1C, Implementation Guide for Use in Addressing USQ Requirements • Development of Nuclear Safety Fundamental Papers that provide a primer to new Nuclear Safety Personnel

  14. FY 2018 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Changes to 10CFR835, Appx. D • Changes to DOE-STD-1107-97 • Revision to 10CFR830, Subpart B, Nuclear Safety • Issue White Paper on medical implementation of new OSHA silica standards • HPI Practitioner Training (NTC)

  15. Search: Best Practices Development Status and Plans for FY18

  16. Best Practices Development Status and Plans for FY18 • DOE Complex-Wide Review of NFPA Codes and Standards • Two Welding BPs (Filler Material, R&D Welding) • “Conduct of Engineering” training (E-learning through DTI plus Published Best Practice) • Contractor Preparation and Participation in Enforcement Investigation Best Practice • Effectiveness Review Best Practice • Chemical Threshold Quantities for Safety Basis Categorization

  17. Best Practices Development Status and Plans for FY18 • IH&S and Occupational Medicine Best Practice on Coordination Efforts • Integration of IH&S TG and Training WG to enhance training materials and courses • OccMed Travel Accommodations Best Practice • RP task group to publish two best practices for FY2018; Use of PPE Committee and Pu-238 Handling.

  18. FY 2019 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Electrical Safety compliance on 10CFR851 Amendment • IH&S and Occupational Medicine Technical Task groups working together to identify best communication practices due to overlap in responsibilities • Issue technical guidance for application and implementation of ACGIH thermal stress TLV • Integration of IH&S TG and Training WG to enhance training materials • Continue working Health Physicist qualification and staffing task item, with the Industrial Hygiene task group • Continue improvements in radiological worker training

  19. FY 2019 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Continued support and input to development, revision and implementation of DOE standards (e.g., DOE-STD-5506, DOE-STD-3014, DOE-HDBK-3010, DOE-STD-3007, DOE-STD-1169, HazCat 3 DSA Development Standard, ANSI/ANS-8 Series Standards) • Support approval process for revision of DOE G 424.1-1C, Implementation Guide for Use in Addressing USQ Requirements • Support NTC Nuclear Safety Series Course Development including attending pilot courses • Nuclear Safety Fundamental Papers that provide a primer to new Nuclear Safety Personnel

  20. FY 2019 Upcoming Focus Areas and Planned Achievements • Engineering Workforce Related Challenges • Commercial Grade Dedication • Transition planning (to D&D or from Construction to Operations phases) • Review of NFPA Codes and Standards • Convert existing contractor training to CBT as a companion to planned Office of Enforcement CBT • Best Practice for Conduct of an Effectiveness Review • Provide feedback regarding Enforcement Guidance Supplements to the Office of Enforcement

  21. Best Practices Development Status and Plans for FY19 • LLNL best practice paper concerning active ventilation effects on fires • Hazard Categorization Segmentation • Safety Basis Approval Planning using STD-1104 • Early Career rotation programs (Nuclear Safety) • Nuclear Facility Repurposing • Process Safety Review Board • USQ Implications for Safety Software Changes

  22. Best Practices Development Status and Plans for FY19 • Two new BPs under consideration include Welding, Deferred Maintenance criteria, continued NFPA code review results) • RP task group to study and issue best practices on radiological counting statistics. • Several Laser safety best practices on High Power Lasers, Laser Control Requirements, Laser Worker CBT,

  23. SWG Issues • Lack of clear process for sun-setting task groups
