The Directives System is the means by which DOE policies and requirements are developed and communicated within the Department. Directives include Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals, DOE Regulations, Technical Standards, and Guides. Unless otherwise indicated, this Manual deals only with Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals and Guides. 3. DESCRIPTION: DIRECTIVES. The relationship of documents within the Directives System is illustrated in Attachment I-2. Policy Statements are the highest level directive and are issued by the Secretary. The next tier of directives consists of Orders, Notices, Manuals, and DOE Regulations. The third tier, DOE Guides, provides information concerning acceptable, non-mandatory means of fulfilling requirements. The last tier, DOE Technical Standards, which are published as part of the Technical Standards Program, describes established practices and procedures that may be used. a. Directives Establishing Requirements. (1) Policy Statements describe the philosophies and fundamental values of the Department. Other documents in the Directives System flow from Policy Statements and must be consistent with them. Policy Statements apply equally to DOE Elements and contractors. Because Policy Statements are general in nature, they often will require implementation through the more specific requirements established in DOE Regulations, Orders, Notices, and Manuals. (2) DOE Regulations establish enforceable requirements pursuant to the Department's authority under law and in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act. Their development is managed by the Office of General Counsel. (3) Orders establish management objectives and requirements and assign responsibilities. Orders are reviewed after 2 years to determine if they are adequate and current. (See Chapter VI.) (4) Notices are like Orders, but are issued for immediate or short-term use. Unless extended through the issuance of an additional Notice or incorporated into an Order, they expire no later than 1 year from issuance. CANCELE D I-2 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 (5) Manuals establish requirements that supplement DOE Orders and provide more instruction about how the provisions of the Order shall be carried out. Because a Manual supplements a particular Order, it must be developed and issued concur- rently with the Order and may not introduce requirements that do not directly relate to the Order requirements. b. Directives Providing Guidance. (1) Guides provide non-mandatory, supplemental information about acceptable methods for implementing requirements contained in DOE Regulations and Orders. Guides may identify acceptable ways to implement requirements by referencing appropriate Technical Standards, but they may not impose additional requirements. Although Guides should be considered in implementing requirements, compliance may be demonstrated by other actions or means.

(2) Technical Standards are non-mandatory criteria managed under the Technical Standards Program to provide guidance to contractors and DOE personnel on acceptable methods for meeting requirements. 4. DIRECTIVES MANAGEMENT DOCUMENTS. Directives Management Documents (DMDs) solicit from Departmental Elements and M&O contractors information that helps to determine the need for a new Directive or the revision of an existing one. They are required for all proposed new Orders and Manuals and for significant revisions. DOE M 251.1-1, Chapter II, Attachment II- 1 provides the DMD format. 5. DIRECTIVES NUMBERING SYSTEM. a. Numbering Directives. All Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals and Guides will have a letter identifying the type of document, a 3-digit number identifying the subject matter category, and a suffix showing the sequence within that subject matter area and the revision level. The following examples show how the numbering system would work for various documents. (1) Policy Statements. In DOE P 141.1, GUIDANCE ON IMPLEMENTATION OF DEPARTMENT PUBLIC PARTICIPATION POLICY, "P" stands for Policy, "141" is the subject matter category (Public Relations), and ".1" indicates the first policy document in this category. When the document is revised, the first revision will be numbered DOE P 141.1A. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 Chg 1 I-3 12-12-95 (2) Orders. In DOE O 151.1, COMPREHENSIVE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, "O" stands for Order, "151" is the subject matter category (Emergency Management and Planning - General), and ".1" indicates the first Order in this category. Subsequent revisions will be ".1A," ".1B," etc. (3) Notices. In DOE N 251.1, CANCELLATION OF DIRECTIVES, "N" stands for Notice, "251" is the subject matter category (Directives System), ".1" indicates that this Notice supplmenets DOE O 251.1, DIRECTIVES SYSTEM, and "-1" indicates that this is the first Notice supplementing that particular Order. Subsequent extensions of Notices will be "-1A", "-1B", etc. (4) Manuals. In DOE M 251.1-1, DIRECTIVES SYSTEM MANUAL, "M" stands for Manual, "251" is the subject matter category (Directives System), ".1" indicates that this Manual supplements DOE O 251.1, DIRECTIVES SYSTEM, and "-1" indicates that this is the first Manual supplementing that particular Order. If the Order is revised to be DOE O 251.1A, there is no change in the number of the Manual. If the Manual is revised, its number would become DOE M 251.1-1A. (5) Guides. Guides are numbered the same as Manuals, but the initial letter designator is "G." To accommodate circumstances in which DOE Regulations, rather than Orders, contain the requirements, the primary 3-digit code would be used. For example, a Quality Assurance Guide might be labeled DOE G 414.1-1 since it is based on a DOE Regulation rather than an Order. b. Subject Matter Categories. Departmental directives are numbered as described below. The Directives System Manager will assign a number for each individual directive. Attachment I-3 provides a crosswalk of old (current) Directives numbers to the new Directives numbering system. 100 LEADERSHIP/MANAGEMENT PLANNING 110 Organization and Structure.

Secretary of Energy approves all Policy Statements. b. Assistant Secretary for Human Resources and Administration approves Orders, Notices, Manuals and Guides. c. Cognizant Secretarial Officers approve requests for exemptions as applicable. d. Field Managers approve requests for exemptions as applicable. e. Offices of Primary Interest. (1) Develop and maintain directives within their functional areas that conform to the requirements of this Order. (2) Prepare Directives Management Documents (Attachment II-1) for new Orders, Manuals, and major revisions to existing Orders. (3) Prepare cost of implementation estimates for directives with new requirements unless the requirements are imposed by law, Executive order, Office of Management and Budget direction, or by regulation of another agency. f. Directives System Manager. (1) Approves Directives Management Documents.

(2) Determines that Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals and Guides, and revisions thereto conform to the require- ments of DOE O 251.1 and this Manual prior to forwarding them for approval. (3) Assists Offices of Primary Interest in developing Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals and Guides that conform to the objectives and requirements of DOE O 251.1 and this Manual. This includes participation in process improvement teams, assignment of directives numbers, provision of editorial assistance, development of a review schedule, distribution and receipt of draft directives and comments thereon, and assistance in comment resolution. CANCELE D II-2 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 (4) Establishes and updates systems, processes, and procedures affecting the Directives System (e.g., system automation, resolution of technical issues, reduction of the number and length of directives, prevention of directives development outside the Directives System, etc.). (5) Provides administrative support to the Directives Management Board. g. Heads of Departmental Elements and Management and Operating Contractors provide comments on Directives Management Documents and draft Policy Statements, Orders, Notices, Manuals, and Guides particularly regarding the need for the directive, the appropriateness of and value added by requirements, cost of implementation, and suggestions for alternative implementation methods, if appropriate. 2. DIRECTIVES DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. a. Policy Statements are issued at the discretion of the Secretary. The originating office shall work with the Directives System Manager to determine the schedule for issuance and the appropriate level of coordination and review. b. Orders and Manuals. The steps below must be followed for each new Order or Manual or major revision thereto. (1) The Office of Primary Interest shall identify the need for a directive. This may result from new legislation, a change or development in Departmental policy, a change in technology, etc. (2) The Head of the Office of Primary Interest shall appoint a Directive Development Manager who shall determine the type of directive that is appropriate as well as the Departmental Elements and contractors to which it applies, and establish a Process Improvement Team if appropriate. (3) The Directive Development Manager and Directives System Manager shall agree on a schedule for completion of major tasks; for example, preparation of Directives Management Document and draft directive, review of each by Departmental Elements and contractors, preparation of cost of implementation estimates (if required), resolution of comments, preparation of final directive, approval, and distribution. (4) The Directive Development Manager shall develop the Directives Management Document for a new Order, Manual, or a revision to an Order or Manual, using the format and outline provided in Attachment II-1. The Directives Management CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 II-3 10-16-95 Document shall then be submitted to the Directives System Manager for editorial review and coordination within the Department and among contractors. (5) Departmental Elements and contractors shall review the Directives Management Document to identify significant issues, determine the feasibility of implementing the proposed directive, provide suggestions for alternate approaches, and provide estimates of implementation costs when requested. See Chapter III for details on the coordination process.

(6) The Office of Primary Interest shall prepare the cost of implementation estimate if required by paragraph 1c(3) of this Chapter. (7) The Directive Development Manager, with editorial assistance provided by the Office of Organization and Management, shall prepare a draft directive using input generated by the Directives Management Document and direct participation from customers where appropriate, and shall submit it to the Directives System Manager for coordination. (8) The Directives System Manager shall conduct an editorial review of the draft document by examining its organization and internal consistency, determining its compatibility with other directives and external regulations, and ensuring that its provisions are clearly and succinctly stated. It shall then be distributed to Department Elements and contractors for review. (9) Departmental Elements and contractors shall review the draft directive and provide comments to the Directive Development Manager, who shall prepare the final draft for approval in accordance with Chapter III of this Manual. c. Notices. The process used for Orders and Manuals shall be used for Notices where feasible. However, since Notices may deal with transitory issues or may need to be issued more quickly, some or all of the requirements in paragraphs 2b(4) through (8) of this chapter may be omitted, subject to approval of the Directives System Manager. d. Guides. The coordination and issue resolution process used for Orders and Manuals shall be used for Guides, as prescribed in Chapter III, paragraphs 3 (a) through (i) of this Manual. Guides are subject to the sunset review process indicated in Chapter VI of this Manual. For detailed guidance on the processing of Safety and Implementation Guides, please refer to DOE Technical Standard DOE- STD-1075-94, "Standard for Developing and Issuing DOE Safety Guides and Implementation Guides," of 7-94. CANCELE D II-4 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 3. CONTENT AND FORMAT REQUIREMENTS FOR DIRECTIVES. a. Policy Statements. Policy Statements shall address broad issues within the area of responsibility of the originator but shall not normally contain specific requirements; rather, they shall set the framework under which requirements are established. The format of Policy Statements is at the discretion of the originator of the document, but should address the purpose, scope, and policy as a minimum. b. Orders and Notices. These documents shall contain objectives, requirements, and responsibilities. The sections specified below shall be used unless a deviation is authorized by the Directives System Manager. (1) Objectives. The expected products or other benefits expected to be achieved by implementation of the directive shall be identified. Refer to paragraph 1 of DOE O 251.1, DIRECTIVES SYSTEM, of 10-16-95, for an example. (2) Cancellation. All directives canceled by the new directive shall be identified by number, title, and date. (3) Applicability. (a) The Departmental Elements and contractors to which the directive applies shall be identified. Exclusions shall also be identified. If requirements are to be applied to contractors, the universe of these contractors and subcontractors shall be described such that it is as small as possible.

(b) Requirements for contractors shall be set forth in a Contractor Requirements Document (CRD), which shall be referred to in the Applicability paragraph. Require- ments for contractors are not to be set forth in the body of a directive. Contractor compliance with a CRD is contingent upon incorporation in a contract, usually by reference. If it is applicable to specific functions or facilities, the directive should identify the function or facility. When the term "facility" is used, it must be enhanced to show whether the term is intended to include contractors and to describe the universe of these contractors. (4) Requirements. These are mandatory statements, the accomplishment of which is necessary to achieve the directive's purpose. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 II-5 10-16-95 (a) Requirements must have a measurable or verifiable outcome whenever possible and be focused on outcomes rather than methodology. (b) Requirements must allow flexibility in implementation whenever possible to encourage the most cost effective means of compliance. (c) Requirements must add value commensurate with the cost of their implementation and must be kept to the mini- mum necessary to accomplish the directive's objectives. (d) Requirements should not repeat voluminous information from other sources (such as laws, Regulations, or other DOE Orders) that can easily be incorporated by reference. (e) Requirements should not be stated like responsibilities; that is, they should not identify the entity responsible for the action. (5) Responsibilities. Accountability shall be assigned for requirements within DOE. Responsibilities are to be described in terms of outcome rather than methodology or procedures. (6) References. If the directive is to be accompanied by a Guide, this paragraph shall not be used. If no Guide is required because the requirements are straightforward and require no additional explanatory information or criteria for determining compliance, this section shall describe additional sources of information to assist the implementation of the directive. (7) Contact. The organization title and/or the name of an individual with a telephone number shall be provided. (8) Contractor Requirements Document. The CRD is an attachment to an Order or Manual that identifies contractor require- ments. The CRD may be incorporated into contracts without alteration and must be written with this in mind. Accord- ingly, it must not set forth instructions for DOE staff or describe the universe of prime contracts to which it is to be applied. Special instructions for application of the CRD to a contractor shall be set forth in the Applicability paragraph. It is, however, appropriate to describe the universe of subcontractors to which the prime contractor is to flow down requirements. The CRD is to be a stand alone document and shall not generally reference the DOE directive to which it is attached. CANCELE D II-6 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 c. Manuals. Manuals supplement DOE Orders and are used to provide details or required procedures where necessary to enable fulfillment of requirements. This Manual serves as an example of an acceptable format. d. Guides. Guides provide non-mandatory, supplemental information about acceptable methods for implementing requirements contained in DOE Regulations and Orders. See Chapter III, paragraphs 3 (a) through (i) for the coordination of Guides. For detailed guidance on the development and processing of Safety and Implementation Guides, please refer to DOE Technical Standard DOE-STD-1075-94, "Standard for Developing and Issuing DOE Safety Guides and Implementation Guides," of 7-94.

4. EXEMPTIONS. An exemption is a written release from an applicable requirement(s) of DOE Orders, Notices, and Manuals that has been granted to a DOE Element or Contractor, by the appropriate official. The term "originating office," as used in this paragraph, is used to describe the organization responsible for developing and ensuring performance of requirements contained in mandatory DOE Directives. The Cognizant Secretarial Officer is the DOE official with programmatic responsibility for activities and facilities which are located in the field. a. For Risk Category A or Hazard Level 1 nuclear facilities requesting an exemption from an Environment, Safety and Health or related requirement(s), approval authority to grant exemptions to DOE Directives, or parts thereof, rests with the Cognizant Secretarial Officer with programmatic responsibility for these facilities. Secretarial Officers may redelegate the authority to grant exemptions. (1) If authority to grant exemptions has been delegated to an individual in a field organization, the Cognizant Secretarial Officer and originating office shall be provided with written advance notification of an exemption approval at least 30 working days prior to approval in order to ensure consistency with Departmental policy and identification of any significant safety concerns. (2) Advance notification of an exemption approval is required to allow involvement and consultation with all interested organizations within DOE. b. Except for the exclusions in paragraph a, above, and unless otherwise stated in a specific directive, approval authority to grant exemptions to DOE Directives, or parts thereof, rests with the Operations Office Manager or Field Office Manager ultimately responsible for activities and facilities which are located in the field. Assistant Secretaries have the authority to grant exemp- tions to DOE Directives, or parts thereof, for activities and facilities for which they are responsible at DOE Headquarters. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 II-7 10-16-95 (1) The Cognizant Secretarial Officer and originating office shall be provided with written advance notification of an exemption approval at least 30 working days prior to approval in order to ensure consistency with Departmental policy and identification of any significant safety concerns. (2) Advance notification of an exemption approval is required to allow involvement and consultation with all interested organizations within DOE. When advance notification of an exemption approval is provided, the Cognizant Secretarial Officer and originating office should provide concurrence on each exemption or justification for nonconcurrence within the specified time period. Failure to respond to the advance notification within the specified time frame is an implied concurrence and the Operations Office Manager or Field Office Manager is free to proceed with the exemption approval without any further involvement. c. Each organization requesting an exemption shall submit a formal written request to the appropriate approval authority. Each exemption request should address the following essential elements: (1) Description of activity or condition; (2) Reference to the requirement(s) for which an exemption is sought; (3) The specific activities that would be necessary to implement the requirement(s) for which an exemption is sought; (4) For environment, safety and health requirements, steps taken to provide protection and statement of whether adequate safety is provided and, if not, assessment of residual risk;

(5) The alternative or mitigating actions which have or will be taken to ensure adequate safety and protection of the public, the workers, and the environment for the period during which the exemption will be effective; (6) Identification and justification of the acceptance of any additional risks which will be incurred if the exemption is granted; (7) What benefit is realized by not meeting the requirement from which the exemption is sought; and (8) Whether the exemption being requested is temporary or permanent, and for temporary exemptions, indicate when compliance will be achieved. CANCELE D II-8 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 5. REVISIONS. Changes shall be made to a directive through complete revision or page changes. A transmittal sheet must summarize content changes and include filing instructions as necessary. a. When a directive is substantially changed (50 percent of the pages or more contain changes), it must be reissued. Each revision shall be assigned the original number and identified by a suffix capital letter (the first revision is A, the second B, and so on). b. Minor changes to a Policy Statement, Order, or Manual shall be issued as page changes. The directive's number shall not be changed, but on each changed page, the change number and date of the page shall be shown beneath the directive's number. If necessary, pagination is adjusted by adding letters to the page numbers (11, 12, 12a, 12b) or by adding a blank page that lists page numbers that have been deleted. c. If a Notice is changed, it must be reissued in its entirety or replaced by an Order. d. Where feasible, changes to a directive will be identified by use of side bars. e. The Directives System Manager, with input from the Office of Primary Interest, will determine the degree and extent of coordination required for page changes. 6. CANCELLATIONS. The Office of Primary Interest and the Directives System Manager must approve the cancellation of a directive. A directive shall be canceled by citation in the cancellation section of another directive or by being cited in a Notice issued for the purpose of canceling one or more directives. The cancellation clause should provide for deletion of the requirements in the old Orders at the proper time. The clause should incorporate the following language: "The Orders listed below are canceled. Cancellation of an Order does not, by itself, modify or otherwise affect any contractual obligation to comply with such an Order. Canceled Orders which are incorporated by reference in a contract shall remain in effect until the contract is modified to delete the reference to the requirements in the canceled Orders." CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 Attachment II-1 10-16-95 Page II-9 (and II-10) FORMAT FOR DIRECTIVE MANAGEMENT DOCUMENTS PROPOSED TITLE AND NUMBER OF THE DIRECTIVE: 1. PURPOSE OF PROPOSED DIRECTIVE.

This chapter provides instructions on the coordination and issue resolution process for Directives Management Documents and draft directives. 2. RESPONSIBILITIES. a. Offices of Primary Interest, through the Directive Development Manager, resolve comments received from reviewers and provides feedback to them prior to submitting a final draft directive for approval. b. Directives Management Board resolves issues that cannot be resolved by the Office of Primary Interest or the Directives System Manager. The Board may appoint ad hoc working groups from among its membership to resolve issues concerning particular directives. Issues not resolved by the Directives Management Board may be forwarded to the Under Secretary, Deputy Secretary, or Secretary. The Directives Management Board consists of Heads of the following Departmental Elements. (1) Assistant Secretary for Human Resources and Administration (chair). (2) All cognizant Secretarial Officers. (3) Assistant Secretary for Environment, Safety, and Health. (4) Associate Deputy Secretary for Field Management. (5) Director, Office of Security Affairs. (6) Director, Office of Emergency Management. (7) Chief Financial Officer. (8) Operations Office representative. (9) Power Marketing Administration representative. c. Directives System Manager. (1) Facilitates issue resolution between the OPI and reviewers. (2) Provides administrative support to the Directives Management Board. CANCELE D III-2 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 (3) Coordinates the directive development and review schedules, ensures adequate quality of draft directives prior to coordination, distributes draft directives for review, receives comments thereon, and transmits for final approval. d. Departmental Elements and M&O Contractors provide analyses and comments within established schedules. 3. COORDINATION AND ISSUE RESOLUTION PROCESS. a. The Directive Development Manager shall prepare the Directives Management Document or the draft directive as described in Chapter II and shall submit it to the Directives System Manager for coordination. b. The Directives System Manager shall assign an editor to perform a quality review, checking for editorial standards, conformance with directives system requirements, redundancy, and consistency with other directives.

c. The Directive Development Manager and the Directives System Manager shall identify Departmental Elements and M&O contractors to review the document. The Directives System Manager shall establish goals of 60 days for review and comment and 60 days for issue resolution for draft directives. Normally, Directives Management Document goals are set for 30 days for review and comment and 30 days for issue resolution. d. The Directives System Manager shall distribute the Directives Management Document or the draft directive to reviewers who will prepare "major issues" and "suggested comments" thereon. A major issue concerns requirements or other provisions of the draft directive that would have a serious, adverse effect on mission accomplishment, economy, efficiency, policy, objectives, or other management concerns that should preclude its publication. e. M&O Contractors shall return their comments to the cognizant Operations Office. Departmental Elements shall submit their comments and those from their contractors to the Directives System Manager (for tracking purposes) who will forward them to the Directive Development Manager. Operations Offices should highlight disagreements with issues raised by a contractor and must include all contractor comments as an attachment. Operations Offices shall send copies of major issues to the Associate Deputy Secretary for Field Management. Consideration of issues and comments received after the due date may be delayed until the next revision or sunset review. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 III-3 (and III-4) 10-16-95 f. The Directive Development Manager shall attempt to resolve major issues with the reviewing party. Unresolved major issues shall be forwarded by the Head of the Departmental Element that raised the issue to the Directives System Manager. g. The Directives System Manager shall resolve all administrative issues. Other technical issues shall be referred to the Directives Management Board. h. For each issue on the Directives Management Board agenda, the Office of Primary Interest and the commenting party shall prepare a paper in support of their position and present it to the Board. i. Before the directive is issued, the Directives System Manager shall determine the need for a final editorial review. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 IV-1 (and IV-2) 10-16-95 CHAPTER IV SUPPLEMENTAL DIRECTIVES Supplemental directives are issued by a Headquarters or Field Element for use by that organization and its contractors. Such directives assign responsibilities or establish procedures at the local level. The supplement may correlate to a DOE directive or cover other topics. If significant additional resources are required, the implementing organizations, including M&O contractors, must have the opportunity to assess implementation costs and value added before the supplemental directive is finalized and may appeal imposition of the directive to the Directives Management Board. Supplemental directives must not contradict or ignore provisions in any applicable DOE Policy Statement, Regulation, Order, Notice, or Manual. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 V-1 10-16-95 CHAPTER V UNAUTHORIZED DIRECTIVES 1. INTRODUCTION. a. This chapter describes a process for handling directives-type material that is issued outside the Directives System. Technical direction from a contracting officer or contracting officer's representative is not an unauthorized directive. Similarly, directions issued by a Headquarters organization to its functional counterparts in Field Elements (e.g., from Director, Office of Personnel, to Personnel Directors in Field Elements) are not unauthorized directives.

b. It is important not to issue directives-type material outside the Directives System for the following reasons. (1) It fails to receive appropriate evaluation by affected parties. (2) It often is not distributed to all affected or interested parties. (3) Over time, it will be ignored or forgotten because it is not in a structured system under which it may be retrieved. (4) The issuance of such material through inappropriate means may have unintended financial or legal consequences. 2. RESPONSIBILITIES. a. Departmental Elements and Contractors notify the Directives System Manager of documents that may improperly contain directives-type material. b. Directives System Manager reviews the document, determines if it contains material that should be included in the Directives System. 3. HANDLING UNAUTHORIZED DIRECTIVES. a. If the document is legitimate, the Directives System Manager shall take no further action other than to inform the reporting organization. b. If the document improperly transmits directives-type material, the Directives System Manager shall work with the appropriate Office of Primary Interest to dispose of the document in one of three ways. CANCELE D V-2 DOE M 251.1-1 10-16-95 (1) The document may be withdrawn or modified. (2) The document may be proposed for conversion to a directive, following the appropriate process. If the subject of the directive is time-critical, the Directives System Manager may issue a Notice until an Order is formally developed. (3) If the originator of the document is dissatisfied with its disposition, the Departmental Element that originated the document may petition the Directives Management Board for resolution. CANCELE D DOE M 251.1-1 VI-1 (and VI-2) 10-16-95 CHAPTER VI SUNSET REVIEW 1. INTRODUCTION. Each Policy Statement, Order, Manual, and Guide shall be reviewed every 2 years to determine whether cancellation, revision, or continuation is appropriate. 2. RESPONSIBILITIES. a. Offices of Primary Interest. (1) Advise the Directives System Manager of the need to revise or rescind Policy Statements, Orders, Manuals, or Guides and help the Directives System Manager conduct sunset reviews. (2) Determine, based on the survey mentioned below, whether directives need revision. b. Directives System Manager manages the sunset review process, sends a user survey to Departmental Elements, and publishes all revisions, cancellations, and extensions. 3. SUNSET REVIEW PROCESS DESCRIPTION. Policy Statements, Orders, and Manuals carry an expiration date of 4 years. The need for each directive is determined by conducting a survey every 2 years. A sunset review date, which signals the end of this 2 year period, is indicated on the cover page of the directive. The Office of Primary Interest and the Directives System Manager shall review survey results and determine whether the directive needs to be revised, canceled, or extended without revision. a. If the survey indicates that revisions are required, the Office of Primary Interest shall proceed with the revision, including development of a Directives Management Document and an implementation cost estimate if one is required. b. The Directives System Manager shall distribute a quarterly report to all Departmental Elements listing directives that have been reviewed, canceled, revised, or extended without revision. 4. EXCLUSIONS. DOE Safety Orders applicable to defense nuclear facilities shall not automatically expire within the given 4 year period as indicated in paragraph 3, above, but shall remain in effect until superseded or replaced.
