Canceled Orders that are incorporated by reference in a contract must remain in effect until the contract is modified to delete the requirements in the canceled Orders. 3. APPLICABILITY. a. Primary DOE Organizations, Including NNSA Organizations. Except for the exclusions in paragraph 3c, this Order applies to all Primary DOE Organizations (see Attachment 1 for a complete list of Primary DOE Organizations). This Order automatically applies to Primary DOE Organizations created after it is issued. (1) This Order includes a requirement to integrate multiple QA Program drivers imposed by QA regulations [Title 10 (Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 830], the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and other Federal agencies. The Order includes supplemental activity-specific requirements for work that also may need to comply with QA regulations. This integration requirement supplements but does not supersede or alter compliance with any QA regulations. In the event of a conflict between this Order and any nuclear safety regulation, the regulation prevails. [See QAP integration requirement, paragraph 4a(4).] (2) Note that only the NNSA Administrator can direct NNSA employees. Wherever this Order gives direction to NNSA employees, it should be understood that this direction is provided only for the convenience of the Administrator and is not intended to assume or replace the authority of the Administrator’s direction. b. Contractors. (1) Except for the exclusions in paragraph 3c, the Contractor Requirements Document (CRD), Attachment 2, sets forth requirements of this Order that will apply to contractors whose contracts include the CRD.

(2) This CRD must be included in contracts that require or involve responsibility for work or operations at DOE sites or facilities. This includes work that may take place outside the physical boundaries of a DOE facility, such as design or analysis services. (3) Secretarial Officers (SOs) are responsible for notifying contracting officers which contractors are affected by this Order. Once notified, contracting officers are responsible for incorporating the CRD into the contracts of affected contractors via the laws, regulations, and DOE directives clause of the contracts. CANCELE D DOE O 414.1B 3 04-29-04 (4) As the laws, regulations, and DOE directives clause of site/facility management contract states, regardless of the performer of the work, site/facility management contractor with the CRD incorporated into its contract is responsible for compliance with the requirements of the CRD. (a) An affected contractor is responsible for flowing down the requirements of this CRD to subcontractors at any tier to the extent necessary to ensure the contractors’ compliance with the requirements. (b) In doing so, the contractor will not unnecessarily or imprudently flow down requirements to subcontractors. That is, the contractor will both— 1 ensure that it and its subcontractors comply with the requirements of the CRD to the extent necessary to ensure the contractor’s compliance and 2 incur only costs that would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of competitive business. c. Exclusions.

OBJECTIVE. To prescribe process requirements and responsibilities for DOE line managers to effectively perform corrective actions that resolve safety issues arising from— a. b. c. Findings identified by the Offices of Independent Oversight and Performance Assurance; Environment, Safety, and Health (ES&H); and Emergency Management (DOE O 470.2B, Independent Oversight and Performance Assurance Program, dated 10-31-02); Judgment of needs identified by Type A accident investigations (DOE O 225.1A, Accident Investigations, dated 11-26-97); or Other sources as directed by the Secretary or Deputy Secretary, including crosscutting safety issues. 2. REQUIREMENTS. Reporting Findings. The assessing organization (see paragraph 1) submits the final assessment report within 10 calendar days of issuance to the— a. (1) applicable field element managers (FEMs) and Secretarial Officers (SOs); and (2) Office of ES&H along with a synopsis of assessment report findings. Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Development, Approval, and Review. b. (1) Development. The FEM in consultation with the appropriate SO must prepare a comprehensive CAP in writing to address assessment findings and field and Headquarters corrective actions for each finding. Guidance for implementing these requirements is outlined in Appendix G of DOE G 450.4-1B, Integrated Safety Management System Guide. Note that DOE O 470.2B, Independent Oversight and Performance Assurance Program, dated 10-31-02, includes additional reporting requirements. (a) When findings and/or corrective actions to be addressed apply to more than one SO, a lead SO must be appointed by mutual agreement or be appointed by the Deputy Secretary to coordinate and approve the CAP. (b) When findings and/or corrective actions to be addressed involve multiple sites or organizations, to include DOE Headquarters CANCELE D Attachment 4 DOE O 414.1B Page 2 04-29-04 organizations or other elements, the lead SO must designate a lead FEM as overall manager to coordinate and develop the CAP and track and report CAP data in the Corrective Action Tracking System (CATS) database. (c) Other responsible sites/organizations must forward their portions of the CAP to the designated lead FEM for consolidation and submission. Failure to provide this information will be brought to the attention of the lead SO for action. (d) For each finding, the CAP must address— 1 extent of conditions, 2 causal factors that led to the finding, 3 detailed descriptions of corrective action(s) to resolve the finding, and

4 a general outline for the conduct of the proposed independent corrective action effectiveness review (see paragraph 2d). (e) For each corrective action the CAP must include a detailed description, deliverable(s) that will signify completion, a single responsible manager accountable for timeliness and effectiveness of the correction action, and planned completion date. (2) Approval. The CAP must be prepared on a schedule that will allow for review and approval by the SO or designee within 60 calendar days from the date the transmittal forwarding the formal final assessment/investigation report was issued. (a) The SO or designee must approve the CAP and all proposed corrective actions from responsible sites/organizations for each finding. (b) When a finding addresses a deficiency in DOE policy, the applicable DOE policy organization (e.g. Assistant Secretary for Environment, Safety and Health, Office of Science, etc.) must develop and implement appropriate corrective actions. Corrective actions must be included in the CAP addressing all other findings in the assessment report or a separate CAP must be developed by the policy organization for approval, tracking and reporting. CANCELE D DOE O 414.1B Attachment 4 04-29-04 Page 3 (c) Separate CAPs developed by a DOE policy organization must be approved by organization directors. (d) When a proposed CAP cannot be submitted to the SO for approval within the required 60 days or the SO does not approve the proposed CAP, the DOE CATS User’s Guide outlines a process to formally request an extension from the SO. (3) Review. The SO or designee must forward copies of an approved CAP to the organization that conducted the assessment for review and to the Office of ES&H. (a) The organization that conducted the assessment must review the approved CAP and provide comments to the SO and FEM within 30 calendar days from the date the approved CAP was transmitted. (b) The SO must evaluate comments from the organization that conducted the assessment and provide written response on how the comments will be addressed. If the SO decides the CAP must be revised, the FEM must be notified to revise and resubmit the CAP for SO approval within a specified timeframe not to exceed 60 calendar days from the date the SO directed the revision. The revised CAP must be submitted to the organization that conducted the assessment for review and a copy provided to the Office of ES&H. (c) Disagreements that cannot be resolved between the organization that conducted the assessment and the SO must be elevated through the organizational level of management hierarchy up to the Office of the Secretary, if necessary for resolution. c. Tracking and Reporting Implementation. (1) The FEM— (a) is responsible for implementing the approved CAP and ensuring timely and effective completion of all corrective actions; (b) must enter, track and report the status of the CAP and associated corrective actions to closure in the DOE CATS database (see http://tis.doe.gov/portal/catsentry.html and guidance for accessing and using CATS outlined in the DOE CATS User’s Guide and CATS Data Dictionary online at http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ism/cats.html; CANCELE D http://tis.doe.gov/portal/catsentry.html http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ism/cats.html Attachment 4 DOE O 414.1B Page 4 04-29-04 (c) must enter CAP and corrective action data as stated in the approved CAP for each finding in CATS within 10 working days after approval.

(d) must ensure that all corrective actions are tracked and their status reported to completion and verification. (2) Completion of each corrective action must be annotated in the CATS Descriptive Status and Completion Date fields. (3) Other sites/organizations who forwarded portions of the CAP and corrective actions to the lead FEM [see paragraph 2b(1)(c)] must track and provide the FEM updates of their portions of the CAP and corrective actions to completion and verification within the timeframes specified in this Order. (4) The FEM must update the CAP Status field and Descriptive Status fields frequently basis (e.g., monthly) and enter the date at the beginning of each update. (5) Requests for CAP changes in CATS (i.e. planned corrective action completion date) must be approved by the SO who approved the CAP and submitted as outlined in the CATS Users Guide. (6) Information in CATS will be used to provide periodic (e.g. quarterly) status reports to assist senior DOE management in monitoring the status of the CAMP. Corrective Action Effectiveness Review. d. (1) Purpose. (a) Evaluation of findings and implementation of corrective actions is conducted to correct the underlying causes for corrective action failure to prevent recurrence of the same or similar assessment findings. (b) Effectiveness reviews will— 1 determine whether completed corrective actions have or have not effectively resolved and prevented recurrence of the same or similar findings at the performance level; 2 identify additional actions necessary to effectively resolve the findings and prevent recurrence; and CANCELE D DOE O 414.1B Attachment 4 04-29-04 Page 5 3 collect effectiveness data for subsequent analyses and sharing of lessons learned. (2) Conduct of Reviews. (a) Upon completion of corrective actions, the FEM must initiate a follow up review to verify closure and effectiveness in ensuring resolution of each finding and preventing recurrence. A formal review report approved by the FEM must be completed within 6 months after the CAP completion date (the date when all corrective actions for all findings listed in the CAP have been completed). NOTE: This requirement is effective on the approval date of this Order for all CAPs that have not been approved, CAPs that have been approved but are not complete (all corrective actions in the CAP are not complete and there is not a CAP Completion Date), and all future CAPs. The FEM will determine— 1 how the review is conducted, 2 who conducts the review, 3 what specific completed corrective actions are reviewed for each finding, 4 when the review is initiated, and 5 how the review report will be formatted. (b) Other sites/organizations that tracked and provided updates of their responsible corrective actions to completion and verification must coordinate effectiveness review activities with the lead FEM for consolidation and submission. (c) For each finding, the FEM will select for review a sufficient number of completed corrective actions to allow an objective, accurate assessment of effectiveness in resolving the finding and preventing recurrence. Standards for conducting effectiveness review include the following. 1 A 100 percent review of all corrective actions is not required to determine effectiveness. 2 Review can be initiated at any time during CAP implementation. CANCELE D Attachment 4 DOE O 414.1B Page 6 04-29-04 3 Reviews are initiated based on a severity of a finding,

b length of time needed to review selected corrective actions, c availability of resources to review corrective actions, and d length of time before all corrective actions for the finding are to be completed. 4 Reviews are performed by Federal and/or contractor personnel who are not associated with the findings or corrective actions. 5 Mechanisms used to conduct effectiveness reviews are determined by the FEM and may include a document reviews, b performance analyses, c work observations/facility tours, d performance testing, interviews, e trending of performance, f monitoring performance metrics based on operational data, g tracking performance utilizing targeted assessments, and h performing tailored scheduled assessments to gather the data. (3) Reporting and Follow Up. (a) A formal report documenting the results of the effectiveness review must be completed and approved by the FEM no later than 6 months after the CAP completion date (the date all corrective actions are completed). CANCELE D DOE O 414.1B Attachment 4 04-29-04 Page 7 e. (b) If the FEM determines that additional time is required to successfully complete the effectiveness review, the Effectiveness Review Approval Date field in the CAP Data section of CATS must be updated to read, “See CAP Status,” and an explanation must be entered into the CAP Status field in the CAP Data section. (c) The report includes an executive summary outlining overall scope, results, conclusions, rating and recommendations. A separate report form for each finding describing which corrective actions were reviewed, review activities and results, conclusions, rating (i.e. effective, partially effective, ineffective) and any recommendation for completion is to be attached to the executive summary. (d) FEM approval of the report must be recorded in the Effectiveness Review Approval Date field in the CAP Data section of CATS. A review results and follow up actions must be outlined in the Effectiveness Review Results field. (e) Upon FEM approval, report recommendations must be implemented and followed up as directed by the FEM. The report and supporting documents must be retained in accordance with the local records management process. (f) If the FEM revises the completed CAP based on report recommendations, the CAP revision with additional or revised corrective actions, as applicable, must be approved by the SO. (g) Upon approval, CAP revisions must be entered into CATS and tracked to successful completion. Guidance for entering the revisions is outlined in the CATS User’s Guide. Lessons Learned. (1) At any time during the CAMP process, the FEM must develop and implement, lessons learned identified from the assessment findings, corrective actions in response to the findings, and results of corrective action effectiveness reviews, as applicable. (2) The FEM must evaluate proposed lessons learned to determine if they are applicable to the wider DOE community and distribute the information to a select list of recipients through the DOE Lessons Learned Information Services Web site (http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ll). CANCELE D http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ll Attachment 4 DOE O 414.1B Page 8 04-29-04 f. Corrective Action Management (CAM) Team. (1) The CAM Team, a cross-organizational working group of representatives from Headquarters and field offices, must be maintained to support and coordinate effective line management implementation of the CAMP.

(2) A charter outlining mission, functions, operations, membership, and leadership of the team must be maintained. The CAM Team is sponsored by the Office ES&H and co-chaired by a SO representative and the Office of Environment, Safety and Health. CANCELE D OBJECTIVES. CANCELLATIONS. APPLICABILITY.
