Protocols:

Approval of Standards Set:

The Standards Set will be considered approved when it has been agreed to and signed by the

following parties in the order listed:

Responsible Organization - Fred Bernthal, President, Universities Research Association, Inc.

Resource Authority - John O'Fallon, Director, High Energy Physics Division, Office of Energy

Research

Customer Organization - Andy Mravca, Manager, DOE Batavia Area Office

Instructions to the Identification Team (IT):

The Convened Group will issue a charter letter to the IT outlining its expectations for their

conduct of this pilot process.

Scope of Standards Set:

The Necessary and Sufficient Set of Standards will focus on standards in the area of

Environment, Safety and Health (ESH). This is defined as any functional area that is addressed

in DOE's Guidance Manual for the ESH Management Plan (dated October, 1994). Any decision

to include areas beyond ESH will be made by agreement of the Convened Group and included in

the final instructions to the Identification Team (IT).

Documentation of Standards Set:

The specific format and level of detail with which the standards set will be documented will be

decided by the Identification Team (IT). The Convened Group expects that this document will

include, at a minimum, a listing of the standards and a summary discussion sufficient to

communicate an understanding of the relationship between the FNAL's work, its associated

hazards and the standards selected.
