Cranes and Hoisting and Rigging Operations (EA CRAD 32-17, Rev 0)
The review of crane and hoisting and rigging operations assesses the effectiveness of programs and processes for implementation of a comprehensive hoisting and rigging program. Additionally, assessments can include an evaluation of the DOE field element’s process to assess the adequacy of procedures and implementation of the contractor’s hoisting and rigging program. The DOE field office, DOE contractors, and all subcontractors (including construction subcontractors) are required to implement and manage a program that assures crane operations, rigging of loads and hoisting material are conducted by trained and qualified individuals in a manner consistent with the potential hazards.
