Previsit cont'd

DOE-HDBK-3012-96

team members have met any pre-conditions prior to their arrival at the site2.

Develop a preliminary listing of Shift Evolutions and Interviews and provide it to the

site so they can plan and schedule events and personnel availability. Each team

member should provide input prior to completion of the previsit. Efforts should be

made to coordinate the interviews among team members to minimize the impact on

site personnel.

Schedule a counterpart meeting. Each team member should have

acquaintedhim/herself with their counterpart and developed their inspection

requirements during the preparation phase.

Arrange for any documents designated as required reading for team members to be

available to team members. Scheduling periods of free time during the previsit to

allow this to be accomplished is valuable, particularly if any of the required reading

is classified.

Investigate other or additional hotel accommodations for the ORR if necessary.

Review the ORR Implementation Plan including the Criteria and Review Approach

Documents (CRADs). Ideally, each team member should have received an advance

copy of the plan to enable a thorough preview of their assigned objectives and

criteria.

Team members should arrive at the site as scheduled, having met any prerequisites

for site access which were provided by the TL.

During the previsit, Team Members will:

a. Receive briefings by the Operations Office/Area Office and/or contractor

management on safety, security, the organization, processes, and operations of

the facility as well as, specific information concerning the nature of the restart or

startup.

b. Walkthrough the facility or process area to observe any current operations to

acquaint team members with the facility and processes in question.

c. Complete any special training or fitting, such as respirator training and fitting,

For example, respirator fitting requires a medical exam before the fit test can be administered. The

Health Unit, in the A-wing basement of Germantown, provides these exams to federal employees only.
