1. HSS Inspection of Environment, Safety, and Health Programs at BNL Accelerator Safety Workshop E. Lessard Collider-Accelerator Department August 12-14, 2008

2. 2 ISM at BNL - Scope and Approach  Evaluated ESH performance including the adequacy of Integrated Safety Management Systems and implementation of these systems through review of a sample of work activities and feedback and improvement activities

3. 3 ISM at BNL - Scope and Approach  Tours, discussions, work observations, document collecting, interviews  All DOE Team, no contractors or consultants  Field work focused on:  Systems used to identify deficiencies  Environmental Management System

4. 4 ISM at BNL - Final Report and Ratings  Verification period; facts only  ISM Team released a 20 page summary  Details (~100 pages)  Ratings: Green (OK), Yellow (needs work) and Red (bad for senior managers)  5 Core Functions of ISM were rated

5. 5 BNL’s Core Function Implementation  Positive program attributes  Work control processes  Plant engineering enhancements  Inspections of heavy equipment  Areas needing attention  Accuracy and clarity of requirements  Implementation of controls  Hazards identification and analysis

6. 6 Focus Area: EMS at BNL  Positive program attributes  Effective implementation of significant environmental aspects  Integration of environmental requirements for experimental and permitted activities  Areas needing attention  Integration of environmental requirements into some skill of the craft work activities

7. 7 Focus Area at BNL: Feedback and Improvement  Positive program attributes  SC management system initiative  BHSO Facility Representative program  BNL structured project management approach  BNL institutional improvement efforts  Areas needing attention  Consistency of local area office processes  Self-assessments  Corrective action management  Injury/illness investigations

8. 8 HSS’s Conclusions for BNL  Senior management’s commitment to safety is evident in the institutional improvement efforts and most observed activities were conducted in a safe manner utilizing mature processes  There are several barriers to achieving consistently effective performance:  Requirements management  Rigor of implementation of processes  Compliance with controls
