Responsible Contractor ORR Implementation Plan

DOE-STD-3006-95

o Define the breadth of the review;

o Estimated start date(s) of the review; and,

o Estimated time needed to conduct the review.

Preparation, content, and approval of the ORR plan-of-action is described in Section 5.9.1. In the

event that the contractor has developed a new start or restart plan that contains the elements of the

plan-of-action including appropriate contractor reviews and approvals, a separate contractor plan-of-

action may not be required. The startup or restart approval authority must approve this plan.

5.1.4 Responsible Contractor ORR Implementation Plan. Consistent with the breadth defined in

the ORR plan-of-action and the specific facility involved, a structured review plan should be prepared

and implemented that identifies all of the necessary criteria and review approaches required for the

determination of readiness to safely startup and operate the specified facility. The Implementation Plan

will define the ORR depth to be consistent with the breadth and conditions of the restart. If a previous

ORR has been completed for the facility being reviewed, the ORR Implementation Plan and

subsequent review should stress the operations that have changed since the last review as well as the

effectiveness of corrective actions for any findings. The ORR Implementation Plan is described in

Section 5.9.2.

5.1.5 Contractor Operational Readiness Review Team. The overall responsibility of the ORR

team is to examine the aspects of the activity under review and assure themselves, management, and

the DOE that the equipment, procedures, and personnel associated with the activity are ready for

startup and safe operation. To ensure independence, the Operational Readiness Review teams shall

not include as senior members (including team leader) individuals who are from offices assigned

direct line management responsibility for the work being reviewed by the startup or restart authority:

any exceptions require approval of the startup or restart authority. Additionally, no ORR team

member shall review his or her own work or work for which they are directly responsible.

5.1.5.1 Contractor ORR Team Leader. This is a senior individual with the necessary

qualifications for managing and conducting the ORR. The basis of the qualifications should include:

o Technical familiarity with the activities and functional areas being reviewed;

o Previous performance-based review experience or training;
