Review of Implementation of Safety Basis Corrective Actions at the Pantex Plant (EA CRAD 31-31, Rev. 0)

This CRAD focuses on assessing the adequacy of the Pantex Plant Safety Basis CAP implementation to fully comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 830, “Nuclear Safety Management.” The assessment involves verifying closure of corrective actions scheduled for completion by September 2019. Objectives and criteria are derived primarily from requirements found in Departmental orders DOE O 226.1B, Implementation of DOE Oversight Policy, and DOE O 414.1D, Quality Assurance, as well as NQA-1-2008, Nuclear Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications, the consensus standard followed by the CNS Quality Assurance Program Description. The assessment of corrective action implementation will evaluate the effectiveness of contractor processes for closing actions identified in the CAP as well as the CNS issues management process. Concurrently, the assessment will evaluate Federal oversight and acceptance of CAP actions. The following criteria and lines of inquiry are independent sections to be used in any combination, based on the need of the specific assessment.
