Analytical Laboratory Common Findings • Training not completed or not documented • Technical Demonstrations of Capability (Initial & Continuing) • Ethics training • LIMS security training • Safety and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) training • Radiation control training • Inadequate or incomplete SOP content • Practices not consistent with SOP direction • Deficiencies in sample receipt practices, particularly radiological screening practices 9
Analytical Laboratory Common Findings (cont.) • Performance Test failures • Internal auditing deficiencies • None performed • Schedule not established or maintained • No Corrective Action follow-up • Not reported to management • Calibration or calibration verification deficiencies • Logbook/Notebook deficiencies • Waste disposal inadequate or facilities being used for waste disposal not adequately reviewed 10
TSDF Auditors FY2012 SITE TOTALAUDIT AREA TOTAL Oak Ridge 18 (Ops Team-4) Lead 11 Savannah River 7 Quality Assurance 20 Idaho 7 Sampling & Data Quality 10 Hanford 5 (RL-2, PNNL-1, ORP-2) Waste Operations 24 Nevada 2 Environ.

TSDF Common Findings • Incomplete or inadequate SOP content • Practices do not match SOP direction • Inadequate personnel training • Incomplete training documentation and records • Inadequate labeling and posting (containers, placards, safety, etc.) • Inappropriate storage of chemical and equipment • Inadequate compliance with permits and regulatory requirements 15
FY2012 Findings Review DOECAP conducted: 31 audits in FY2012 90% of all FY2011 audit findings were closed during FY2012 audits: 90% of the Lab findings 87% of the TSDF findings New Findings Identified Lab & TSDF since 2007: FY2007 = 374 FY2010 = 227 FY2008 = 216 FY2011 = 215 FY2009 = 277 FY2012 = 191 16
FY2012 Program Accomplishments • Increased number of qualified Auditors & Leads • Laboratory Lead Auditors from 11 to 12 • TSDF Lead Auditors 11 – no change from FY11 • Laboratory Auditors from 56 to 61 • TSDF Auditors from 61 to 62 • Three new modifications were made to the EDS to increase the drop box efficiency, clarify the audit schedule and to free up space in the EDS. + 3N – 2L = + 1 + 15N - 10L = +5 + 12N – 11 L = +1 17
FY2012 ProgramAccomplishments (cont.) • Initiatives to increase field participation • Memos to field managers • Meetings with field managers • Continued implementation of new contract initiatives for cost reduction • Notification of audit reports to field managers • 2011 ASP Annual Report • 2012 ASP Workshop • The asbestos event resulted in a minimal disruption to the ASP program in Oak Ridge 19
FY2012 Program Challenges • Maintaining the strength of the Program with reduced budgets throughout the Complex. • Different approaches to fulfill audit needs. • Obtaining accurate information regarding laboratory and TSDF facility usage in order to appropriately prioritize audit schedules. • Diligent evaluation of the input data to make sound decisions. • Completing the integration of the DOE and DoD laboratory requirements documents, new laboratory checklists, and auditor training. • Explore alternatives for the future of EDS. 20
FY2012 Program Challenges (cont.) • Filling Audit Teams with Qualified DOECAP Auditors • Adding Qualified Auditors • Lab Areas: Data Quality for Radiochemistry, LIMS, Hazardous and Radioactive Materials Management, and Aquatic Toxicity • TSDF Areas: Sampling and Analytical Data Quality, Industrial & Chemical Safety, and Radiological Control • Pairing Auditor-In-Training with Experienced Auditors 21
DOECAP is an Integrated Participatory Program = Urgent Need
