Safety Basis Information System

NUCLEAR SAFETY BASIS


SBIS Contact: Sam Rosenbloom


Safety Basis Background Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 830, Nuclear Safety Management requires contractors and operators of DOE hazard category 1, 2, and 3 nuclear facilities to develop and maintain a Safety Basis for each facility and to perform work in accordance with that Safety Basis. DOE contractors and operators have until April 2003 to develop or revise their Safety Bases to be consistent with the new Subpart B and submit them to DOE for review and approval.

SBIS
Commitment
In Appendix A to Subpart B of 10 CFR Part 830, DOE committed to provide members of the public with up-to-date information on its nuclear facility Safety Bases. The SBIS was created to meet this requirement and also to provide DOE line managers with an effective tool for obtaining regularly updated profiles of the entire inventory of Safety Bases for hazard category 1, 2, and 3 DOE nuclear facilities. The DOE Office of Nuclear and Facility Safety Policy maintains the SBIS. The DOE Program and Operations Offices provide the information for the web page.

How it Works The SBIS provides a means to search for a particular DOE nuclear facility or to search for a set of DOE nuclear facilities based on a common attribute (e.g., facilities at the same DOE site). It also provides a Point of Contact to assist in determining what Safety Bases information is available for a particular facility.

As new Safety Basis documents are submitted and approved, the SBIS will be periodically updated to reflect the status of the Safety Bases.
