Summary evaluation

Objective 5.1 – Provide a Work Environment that Protects Workers

• PM 5.1.a, Progress meeting SC FY07 safety goals for DART case rate: The target of 0.35 was not met. SLAC estimates its final DART case rate to be 0.65 with a total DART case count of 14.
• PM 5.1.b, Progress meeting SC FY07 safety goals for TRC case rate: The target of 0.87 was not met. SLAC estimates its final TRC case rate to be 1.11 with a total TRC case count of 24.
• PM 5.1.c, Reportable occurrences of releases to the environment: There were no reportable releases to the environment.
• PM 5.1.d, Instances of uncontrolled spread of radioactive contamination per DOE M 232.2-2: There were no instances of uncontrolled spread of radioactive contamination.
• PM 5.1.e, No overdue corrective actions and non-compliances are reported timely per DOE reporting criteria: There were no overdue corrective actions. SLAC has kept SSO apprised of progress on open action items through weekly meetings. All reports to DOE have met or exceeded reporting criteria.

Objective 5.2 – Provide Efficient and Effective Implementation for Integrated Safety, Health, and Environment Management.

• PM 5.2.a, Mandatory ES&H Training requirements are completed to a level of 90% per the SLAC Training Database Metrics Reporting System: SLAC completed 92.2% of mandatory training requirements. This number is the average of the four quarterly “snap shots” from the SLAC Training Database Metrics Reporting System.
• PM 5.2.b, Corrective Actions Resulting from ISM reviews, validations and assessment are completed in a timely manner or have DOE approval for plan to complete during FY06: DOE has been constantly apprised of progress on open corrective actions through weekly meetings. Some corrective actions have extended into FY07 though the large majority has been closed out.
• PM 5.2.c, No incidents of unauthorized work during FY06: There were two incidents of unauthorized work in FY06. A Linac sector 20 excavation project, working with proper authorization, changed work scope without applying for an amended permit as is required. In a second instance, two electricians working for a sub-contractor, failed to follow the LOTO authorization process and cut into a live 110 VAC line. Neither incident caused any injury or environmental threat.
• PM 5.2.d, ISMS reviews performed in FY06 do not identify significant concerns or findings related to staff and line management understanding of ISMS: Indeed, the October 2005 ISM review highlighted staff and management understanding and commitment to the SLAC ISEMS as a strength in addition to concluding that SLAC met all ISM performance objectives.

Objective 5.3 - Provide Efficient and Effective Waste Management, Minimization, and Pollution Prevention

• PM 5.3.a, SLAC recycles 53% of non-hazardous waste: SLAC has recycled 71% of its non-hazardous waste.
• PM 5.3.b,
  • SLAC establishes FY06 baseline for low-level waste generation from routine operations. The baseline was created after the close of FY2006 as was necessary and submitted to the DOE SSO on October 25, 2006.
  • SLAC reduces by 69% the generation of hazardous waste from routine operations by the end of FY06 relative to the 1993 baseline: SLAC has reduced by 74% its generation of hazardous waste from routine operations.
• PM 5.3.c, SLAC’s CMS demonstrates “on plan” progress on reducing chemical inventories and improved chemical life cycle tracking from the initial FY05 inventory to the end of FY06: SLAC has successfully transferred from SLAC stores its inventory of chemicals to the Haas Gilroy hub successfully reducing the on-site inventory. It is also believed on-site inventories were further reduced by the ability of Haas to deliver chemicals and other hazardous materials within one business day, i.e. “just in time” ordering and inventory management.
