DOE-STD-3006-95
If a team member feels that aspects of his/her opinions have not been adequately represented, that
member should file a report of differing opinion. This report should be attached to the ORR Final
Report, identified as an appendix, for review by the approving authority.
5.9.4 Readiness to Proceed Memorandum. The Readiness to Proceed Memorandum is the
formal communication from the responsible contractor to DOE that the facility has been brought to a
state of readiness to start operations. The memorandum is a prerequisite to the DOE ORR. The
Operations Office will use the contents of the Readiness to Proceed Memorandum, coupled with its
own routine management understanding of the status of the facility, as a basis for the
recommendation or decision to commence the DOE ORR.
5.9.4.1 Timing of the Readiness to Proceed Memorandum. The Readiness to Proceed
Memorandum should not be submitted until all actions required for startup or restart have been
completed, with the exception of a manageable list of open prestart items that have a well defined
plan and schedule for closure.
The principle that management is responsible for bringing the facility to a condition of readiness to
start operations and that the ORR verifies that readiness must not be disregarded. If there are an
excessive number of open items at the time the Readiness to Proceed Memorandum is submitted to
DOE the initial conclusion is that the responsible contractor's management and ORR processes were
not successful.
The following discussion concerning the acceptability of the open prestart items at the time the
Readiness to Proceed Memorandum is provided:
a. Each open item prerequisite to commencing facility operations must be identified as a part of the
Readiness to Proceed Memorandum.
b. The number of open items must be small. In determining how many open items is acceptable,
one principle should be that every area to be evaluated by the DOE ORR must be sufficiently
complete to permit evaluation. For example, a single finding or multiple findings that in aggregate
mean that some key program has not yet been developed and put in place would not be acceptable
