APPROVED INTERPRETATION GUIDANCE FOR DOE M 232.1-1A

"Additional Nature of Occurrence code for Type A or B investigation"

Approved 9/27/99

REQUIREMENT

GROUP 10 - CROSS-CATEGORY ITEMS

C. Potential Concerns/Issues

Off-Normal

(1) Any event resulting in the initiation of a Type A or B investigation as categorized by DOE O 225.1, ACCIDENT INVESTIGATIONS.



INTERPRETATION
Issue:

Is the intent of the Off-Normal criteria to identify two Natures of Occurrence for any event that results in the initiation of a DOE Type A or B investigation, since the event would also meet other reporting criteria?

Intent:

Yes, this nature of occurrence should also be selected so that a link can be made to occurrences that result in the initiation of a Type A or B investigation.
