DOE-STD-3024-98
In some cases, there are sections that may appear to be repetitious. Repetition of the same information
is not intended. It is appropriate to address the same topic in different ways and for different purposes
in different parts of the standard or SDD. For example, "boundaries and interfaces" is the topic in four
different places. In Section 1, the Introduction, it is necessary to address boundaries only so that the
reader can easily determine if this SDD covers a specific component of interest or if a different SDD
should be consulted. In Section 2, the Overview, it is necessary to depict the system boundaries and
interfacing systems on the system diagram. In Section 3, the Requirements, it is necessary to address
boundaries and interfacing systems only to the extent that there are system requirements in these areas.
In Section 4, the Description, it is necessary to describe the precise physical boundaries of the system in
order that components at or near the boundaries are properly classified and hence receive the
appropriate care and attention in activities such as procurement and maintenance. Thus, while the same
topic is addressed in multiple locations, the information presented in these sections is not repetitious.
Different types of requirements in Section 3, especially the various engineering disciplinary
requirements, are potentially repetitious. As stated in the standard, the information should be presented
once and referred to if the same information is needed elsewhere. As this standard is applied to develop
SDDs, care should be exercised to avoid presenting the same information repeatedly.
Glossary
This glossary explains important terms in this standard. To the extent practical, standard definitions
have been used, and the source of that definition is referenced within square brackets at the end of the
entry. The full bibliographical information on these references is given in Attachment 3 to this
standard. In some cases, the general definitions have been supplemented in order to explain more fully
how the term is used in this standard.
Authorization Basis. Those aspects of the facility design basis and operational requirements relied upon by
DOE to authorize operation. These aspects are considered to be important to the safety of the facility
operations. The authorization basis includes the safety basis for the facility, which focuses on the
protection of personnel, both offsite and onsite. DOE-STD-3009-94 defines "safety basis" as
information relating to the control of hazards at a facility (including design, engineering analyses, and
administrative controls) upon which DOE depends for its conclusion that activities at the facility can be
conducted safely.  The terms "authorization basis" and "safety basis" are sometimes used
interchangeably. The authorization basis may also include information related to environmental
protection. [See References 4 and 10.]
Authorization Basis Documents. Documents providing authorization basis information. These typically
include, but are not necessarily limited to, the SAR, TSRs, EISs, DOE-issued Safety Evaluation
Reports, and documents containing facility-specific commitments to comply with DOE Orders or
policies. [See Reference 10.]
Basis. The basis explains why a requirement exists, and why it has been specified in a particular manner or
at a particular value during the engineering design process. Basis information is delineated in design
input information, design constraints, and intermediate outputs, such as design studies, analyses, and
calculations. The basis encompasses consideration of such factors as facility mission, facility
availability, facility efficiency, costs, schedule, maintainability, and safety. [See Reference 7.]
Controlled Documents. Documents whose content is maintained uniform among the copies by an
administrative control system. The goal of controlling documents is to ensure that work is performed
using approved current information, not obsolete information. Important documents to be controlled
are uniquely identified (including revision number, date, and specific copy number), and distribution is
