1. PURPOSE. To establish the Department of Energy (DOE) requirements
for granting facility approvals prior to permitting safeguards and
security interests on the premises and the conduct of on-site
security and/or nuclear material surveys of facilities with
safeguards and security interests.
I ·
2. CANCELLATION. DOE 5630.7, CONTROL AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF NUCLEAR
MATERIALS SURVEYS, of 7-8-81, and DOE 5634.1, SECURITY SURVEY AND
FACILITY APPROVAL, of 5-2-83.
3. SCOPE. The provisions of this Order apply to all Departmental
Elements and contractors performing work for the Department as
provided by law and/or contract and implemented by the appropriate , contracting officer.
~ '·'··· 4. BACKGROUND. DOE shall assure that all facilities eligible to
. ;0·
.,
receive, process, reproduce, store, transmit, or handle classified
matter or special nuclear material (SNM) have been granted facility
approval prior to permitting access to such matter or material.
5. POLICY. DOE special nuclear materials (SNM) and classified
interests shall not be permitted on premises occupied by the DOE
and/or its contractors, subcontractors, consultants, or other
organizations performing work for the DOE until facility approval is
granted. Activities involving the possession, use, and production
of nuclear materials and classified matter shall be afforded
appropriate levels of protection to prevent unacceptable adverse , impact to national security or the health and safety of the public.
6. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS. DOEl s policy for approving facilities and
conducting surveys to ensure satisfactory safeguards and security of
DOE interests apply equally to all Departmental elements,
contractors, subcontractors and consultants. However, this policy
is implemented at a wide range of facilities, and site- and program
specific characteristics must be considered to assure that
Departmental safeguards and security interests are provided
appropriate and cost-effective protection. In order to allow for

effective implementation of Departmental policy on a site-specific
or program-specific basis, an exception mechanism is provided that
allow facility approval and survey programs to be tailored to
address these specific requirements. The exception procedures are
outlined in paragraph 6e.
a. Information and requirements regarding cover operations are no
longer provided in this Order. The nature of these sensitive
classified interests require specialized instructions which
shall be provided by DP-34 on an as needed basis.
r
b. Initial facility approval shall be based upon a determination
that satisfactory safeguards and security can be afforded the
DOE interests. Such determination shall be based upon initial
and periodic on-site nuclear materials and/or security surveys
conducted by DOE safeguards and security personnel, and upon
written security and material control and accountability plans
approved by the cognizant field organization or, in the case of
Headquarters, by the Director of Safeguards and Security (DP
34).
Section 2
c. The DOE will determine whether, and to what extent, any
contractors performing or proposing to perform work which will
involve access to classified information or significant
quantities of SNM (as defined in 10 CFR 710), are foreign owned,
controlled, or influenced. In addition, the DOE shall determine
on a case-by-case basis whether any degree of foreign ownership,
control, or influence might constitute a basis for the
compromise of classified information, unauthorized access to or
use of SNM, or other related adverse impact on the national
security. To assist in these determinations DOE will use
information provided by the contractor in accordance with
Department of Energy Acquisition Regulation 952.204-73, "Foreign
Ownership, Control, or Influence Over Contractor
(Representation)." The contractor shall also execute a
certificate which indicates that the information, provided in
accordance with the DEAR clause identified above, is accurate, \
complete, and correct.
d. On-site nuclear materials and/or security surveys shall be
conducted initially and periodically thereafter, at intervals
specified in this Order, to ensure satisfactory safeguards and
security of DOE interests. Surveys of each site for which a
Master Safeguards and Security Agreement has been written shall
be conducted in such a manner as to be consistent with the
Master Safeguards and Security Agreement requirements.
e. Alternate means of providing adequate facility approvals and
security and/or nuclear materials surveys may be proposed to
meet a specific requirement of this Order. Exceptions to the
Order, developed by the Heads of Field Elements, include the
following:
o o
DOE 5634.1A 3 (and 4)

~
public health and safety constitutes an important DOE
responsibility. Basic considerations include physical
protection to prevent or deter acts of arson, civil
disorders, riots, sabotage, terrorism, vandalism, and
theft or destruction of DOE property and facilities.
c. Facility Register. The responsible DOE field element and
the surveying office, if not the same, shall maintain a
facility register on those facilities as follows for which
it has responsibility:
(1) The facility register:
(a) Accurately reflects facilities with Class A, B,
C, property protection, and access permit
facility importance ratings.

jurisdiction, via prompt submission of accurate
facility data and approval records (DOE F 5600.2). A
copy of the facility data and approval record is
provided by Attachment II-I.
2. FACILITY APPROVAL.
a. Purpose. To ensure that all facilities eligible to
receive, process, reproduce, store, transmit, use, or
destroy, SNM or classified matter, have been granted
facility approval, based upon a validated satisfactory
safeguards and security system, prior to permitting
classified matter or classified and unclassified SNM on the
premises. The requirements for establishing facility
approvals are outlined below.
o o
11-4 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88 J
b. Accepting Existing DOE Facility Approval. The organization
seeking to establish a classified interest shall check the
Master Facility Register to determine whether the location
already has DOE facility approval. If already approved,
the responsible organization may accept the existing DOE
facility approval, provided:
(1) The existing safeguards and security program at the
facility accommodates the new DOE interest; and
(2) The responsible organization determines that, on the
basis of the latest survey report, the existing
safeguards and security program is compatible with the
level of the new interest.
Additional requirements shall be established and completed
prior to the initiation of the security interest when the
existing safeguards and security program cannot meet the
requirements of the added DOE interest. These additional
requirements may include the conduct of vulnerability
analyses and validation exercises and shall be documented
Section 14
in approved security and/or Nuclear Material Control and
Accountability plans. As appropriate, the existing MSSA,
and security and material control and accountabiltiy plans
shall be revised to reflect the new or added interest. J
c. Granting New Facility Approval.
(1) Approval of a new facility or interest at a DOE
facility, it's contractors, subcontractors,
consultants, or access permittees. The following
conditions shall be in effect prior to approval:
(a) When SNM is present, all facilities subject to
facility approval shall have DOE approved site
specific security and material control and
accountabilty plans and an established Reporting
Identification Symbol (RIS) for Nuclear Materials
Management and Safeguards System reporting.
(b) For SNM, approval is based upon an initial
security survey and material control and
accountabiltiy survey, both with a satisfactory
composite rating.
(c) For classified information, approval is based on
an initial survey report, conducted by
geographical survey office, with a satisfactory
composite rating.
(d) For those security interests covered under . .~
facility MSSAs which are to be protected in a ,..,
graded fashion, the facility shall have completed
a vulnerability analyses of the proposed security
o o
DOE 5634.1A 11-5
2-3-88 c interest. The facility shall have this analysis
available for review during the survey.
(e) The date of the nuclear materials and security
survey and site-specific security/material
control and accountability plan upon which the
granting of facility approval is based shall not
be more than 12 months prior to the granting of
facility approval.
(f) When the level of classified information is
raised from Confidential to Secret or Top Secret,
or the category of SNM holdings is raised from
Category III to Category II or I, facility
approval at the higher level shall be based upon
a survey with a satisfactory composite rating.
(g) In addition to the above requirements, facility
approval for access permittees is based on a
review of the access permittee's written
statement of its procedures for the safeguarding
of Restricted Data and for the security education
of its employees consistent with the requirements
of 10 CFR Part 1016, Safeguarding of Restricted
Data.
(h) Access authorizations shall be in place at the
responsible DOE organization for persons included
in a new interest.
I
~ (i) Adequate classification guidance pertaining to
the new security interest will be available to
assure protection of the interest.
I (2) Accepting an existing U.S. Government agency facility
approval for work at one of it's contractors when a
I
!
« DOE facility approval does not exist.
I
! (a) Work remains under the programmatic cognizance of
DOE, however, security survey and oversight isi . ceded to the other U.S. Government agency.
Whenever practicable, a DOE security facilityI approval shall be established. However,
accepting another U.S. Government agency facility
approval for work under DOE cognizance may be
considered when:I
1 The interest is short term or of minor
J
t significance to the Department;
J
2 A security facility approval by anotherIO~" agency already exists; ,j
I
o
II-6 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
J3 It is not economically prudent for the
responsible or another field organization to
complete the facility approval and survey
requirements; and
4 T,le interest does not involve SNM or access
to restricted data.
Section 15
(b) Facility approval is based upon an existing U.S.
Government agency facility clearance at the
Confidential or Secret classification level and
provided that:
1 The U.S. Government agency facility
clearance encompasses the DOE classified
interest and the last surveyor inspection
report is noted as Satisfactory in those
areas which could affect the DOE interest.
2 The U.S. Government agency cognizant
security office furnishes to the responsible
DOE security office copies of its periodic
inspection reports or periodic memoranda
covering the DOE classified interest, citing
that a satisfactory survey was conducted.
3 The U.S. Government agency cognizant
security office agrees that it will not
cancel the facility clearance without prior
notification to the DOE security office
requesting security support.
4 All employees granted access to DOE
classified information have, as a minimum,
U.S. Government security clearances based on
a National Agency check.
5 Requirements identified in paragraph
2c(2)(a)1 through 2c(2)(a)~ above are
documented in a letter or memorandum of
agreement between the DOE responsible
security office and the U.S. Government
cognizant security office prior to the
establishment of a security interest.
(c) If the foregOing provisions cannot be met or when
SNM or DOE Top Secret, or Secret, or Confidential
Restricted Data is involved, facility approval is
based upon the provisions df paragraph 2c(1), page I1-4.
(d) When an existing U.S. Government agency cleared J
facility also has a DOE facility approval, the .
latter is used, when practicable, instead of the .
other U.S. Government agency facility clearances.
o o
DOE 5634.IA 11-7
2-3-88 c
d. Verification. Verification of capability of other U.S.
Government agencies and their contractors to protect
classified information for reference or use in work not
under DOE cognizance is as follows:
(1) Approval to transmit classified information shall be
based upon a written assurance from the Government
agency that DOE classified matter in its possession or
in the possession of its contractors, subcontractors,
or consultants will be afforded physical protection
and safeguards in accordance with Executive Order
10865, IISafeguarding Classified Information Within
Industry,lI as amended, Executive Order 12356,
"National Security Information," and its implementing
Information Security Oversight Office directive; and
that the mandatory personnel clearance requirements of
the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, pertaining
to access to restricted data, be met.
(2) When an agreement between DOE and another Government
agency specifically limits the dissemination of
certain categories of DOE classified information
within that agency e.g., restricted data, the
responsible DOE organization shall request the agency,
on execution of the agreement, to furnish a statement
of its procedures to ensure such limitation.
e. Terminating Facility Approval.
(1) When a facility has completed its activities involving
SNM or classified matter, the responsible organization
assures destruction or return of matter or material
returned to DOE custody through a termination survey
or by correspondence that includes the following:
I .,
I (a) Security termination statements;
(b) Written certification of nonpossession of
• classified matter or SNM;
(c) Cancellation of personnel clearances or access
authorizations which are no longer needed;
Section 16
(d) Discontinuance of physical security and material
control and accountabiltiy measures; and
(e) Preparation of a DOE F 5600.2, Attachment II-I,
cancelling facility approval.
c (2) A certificate of possession and periodic surveys are
required if the facility is authorized to retain
classified matter after termination of a contract or
agreement. The responsible DOE organization shall:
11-8 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
(a) Maintain appropriate documentation to support
receipts of destruction or certificates of
nonpossess;on.
(b) Establish guidelines for terminating facility
approval and coordinating termination activities
with appropriate contracting, program, security,
and safeguards organizations.
3. FACILITY DATA AND APPROVAL RECORD.
a. Purpose. To register pertinent facility information on the
Master Facility Register which must be in agreement.
Prompt submission of Facility Data and Approval Records and
accuracy of reported information are essential to the
continued integrity of the system.
b. Submission of the Facility Data and Approval Record. A
Facility Data and Approval Record, DOE F 5600.2, is
submitted to DP-34 by the responsible organization when:
(1) Granting initial facility approval;
(2) Accepting existing facility approval for an additional .' .~
interest; ~
(3) There is a Significant change in a registered facility
or interest within a facility (e.g., a change in name,
address, facility importance rating, responsible
organization, classified mailing address, contract or
purchase order number, classification, Restricted Data
authorization, or nature or scope of work);
(4) Facility approval for a registered facility or
interest is terminated;
(5) Interests are surveyed for DOE by DOD or other
Government agencies; or
(6) When SNM is to be placed in the facility.
c. Attachment to the Facility Data and Approval Records. When
sUbmitting facility data and approval records, attach a
copy of the following:
(1) Initial survey reports to the facility data and
approval record granting facility approval;
(2) Report of survey in memorandum form and pertinent
correspondence, when applicable, to the facility data
and approval record granting facility approval; and
• •
DOE 5634.lA 11-9 (and 11-10)
2-3-88
o (3) Termination survey report, if conducted, to the
Facility Data and Approval Record terminating facility
approval.
d. Nonsubm;ssion of a Facility Data and Approval Record.
Nonsubmission of an Facility Data and Approval Record
increases the risk that an interest will not be encompassed
by the normal safeguards and security administration
expected at a cleared facility and may be missed during the
normal oversight provided by a periodic or termination
survey. However, after appropriate consideration, a
Facility Data and Approval Record need not be submitted for
the following:
(1) An organization holding a contract with a facility
executes a purchase order or contract amendment for
additional work or material similar to that registered
under the contract, unless such purchase order or
amendment requires substantial changes in existing
security or nuclear material control and
accountability programs.
(2) An invitation to bid tendered by a field organization
is consonant with the interest(s) previously
registered by that organization.o e. Distribution. The organization preparing the Facility Data
Section 17
and Approval Record shall forward the original and two
copies to DP-34 which will make appropriate distribution to
other Departmental Elements having a safeguards and
security interest.

CHAPTER III
GENERAL SURVEY REQUIREMENTS
1. PURPOSE. To provide the basis for evaluating the adequacy and
effectiveness of safeguards and security programs and the
protection afforded DOE safeguards and security interests.
2. TYPES OF SURVEYS.
a. Initial Survey. An on-site examination of a facility prior
to granting facility approval.
b. Periodic Survey. An on-site examination of a facility
conducted at scheduled intervals.
c. Special Survey. An on-site examination of a facility
conducted for a specific purpose.
d. Termination Survey. An on-site examination of a facility
conducted when the safeguards and security interests are
removed from a facility or the contractor is changed for a
facility, or to assure proper disposition of nuclear
material and close out of records.
o e. Shipment Survey. An examination of protection afforded
security interests during shipment.
3. COVERAGE.
a. Initial and periodic surveys cover the protection afforded
DOE safeguards and security interests within a facility,
including an evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness
of material control and accountability (MC&A) and security
programs and a thorough examination of policies and
procedures to ensure compliance/performance with
appropriate safeguards and security directives and
agreements. All facilities are subject to the compliance
and performance segments of surveys, as described in
Chapters IV and V.
Section 18
b. Special surveys evaluate the following:
(1) Existing protection for additional activities;
(2) Need for changes in material control and
accountability and security procedures and measures
due to changing conditions; and
(3) New material control and accountabilty and security
measures taken as a result of findings identified
under a previous survey(s).
• •
I II-2 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
c. Termination surveys evaluate actions taken to ensure
termination of safeguards and security interests, execution
of an appropriate security termination statement, and
submission of a certificate of possession or nonpossession,
as appropriate. Termination of facility approvals for
Class "A" facilities, facilities possessing classified
material, and/or SNM, require an on-site termination
survey. For other facilities, termination may be by survey
or correspondence.
d. Shipment surveys provide a basis for evaluating the
adequacy of protection afforded DOE classified matter or
SNM during shipment. Shipments which move between sites by
rail, truck, air, or ship are subject to survey based on an
approved security plan unless the shipment is made via a
commercial carrier(s) licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC). Movements of SNM between security areas
at the same site shall be surveyed during the security
survey of the site protection system. Each type of
security shipment shall be surveyed initially and at least
once every 12 months thereafter by the organization having
administrative jurisdiction over the shipment. Shipment
survey reports shall provide sufficient detail to enable a
proper evaluation of the report and its findings.
4. PRE-SURVEY PLANNING AND SCHEDULING. Certain activities should
be accomplished prior to the conduct of a security or nuclear
materials survey. These are normally done by the surveying
organization, the responsible organization (if different from
the surveying), the facility being surveyed, and DP-34. The
following activities are necessary:
a. Determine the extent of, and establish procedures for
reviewing, exceptions and other program departures.
b. Review files for relevant information, issues, and topics
to include in the survey. Such files include those
pertaining to: previous surveys, security and MC&A plans,
exceptions, and correspondence.
c. Define the scope of the survey by identifying the program
areas to be inspected, the methodology, and the resources
to be used. The scope should allow for review of areas of
concern that may arise during the survey process.
d. Coordinate all planned survey activities in advance with
parties involved in advance and establish communications
channels. Such coordination should specifically include
advance planning and agreed participation in a pre-survey
briefing.
e. Schedule the survey to allow prioritization of and changes .'~
to survey coverage of facilities. ~

I
: responsibility of each survey that include the following:
i
I
i
(1) Assessing system performance against applicable threats;
I
(2) Evaluating different components of the safeguards and
security system; andI
Section 19
I (3) Rating items on Headquarters-approved survey report forms.
(See Attachment 111-1.)I .
b. When nuclear materials and security surveys are conducted
separately at Class "A" and "8" facilities, they should be
performed within a 2 month period.
6. SURVEY DOCUMENTATION AND REPORTS.
c
a. The survey report shall describe the state of the safeguards and
security program. The report shall reflect the ratings on
Headquarters-approved survey report forms as well as the
performance ratings based upon exercises, where appropriate. As
locally determined, work papers shall support the contents of the
survey report.
b. The narrative portion of the survey report shall outline
strengths and weaknesses, correlate the results from the
compliance and performance (where required), survey segments, and
discuss both compliance and performance ratings. The report
shall explain in detail the factors responsible for the
assignment of a less than Satisfactory rating.
c. Findings shall be identified and correlated with items on the
survey report forms approved by DP-34. The terms "findings" and
"suggestions" may be used in the survey report. The term
"finding" shall be used to refer to deficiencies, or concerns
reached during the survey. The term "suggestion" may be used to
refer to non-mandatory potential program enhancements for
observations cited in the survey report.
d. Survey results shall be validated by discussion, observations, or
exercises during the survey process to ensure accuracy.
e. As determined locally, survey work papers pertaining to findings
not fully documented in the survey report should be retained, as
a minimum, until the next survey is completed.

CHAPTER IV
SECURITY SURVEYS
1. PURPOSE. To assure that facilities maintain effective safeguards and
security programs by requiring surveys which provide monitoring and
evaluation.
2. EXEMPTIONS. (Attachment IV-l outlines geographic responsibilities
for security surveys). Each field organization and DP-34 shall
conduct surveys of the facilities within its assigned geographic
area, except in cases when a responsible organization may elect to
perform this function itself. In the latter case, the responsible
• organization shall coordinate its decision with the organization
having geographic responsibility.
a. The Pittsburgh Naval Reactors Office, Schnectady Naval Reactors
Office, and the Strategic Petroleum Reserve Project Management
Office are exempt from conducting security surveys for other
field organizations within their immediate geographic areas.
However, this exemption is not all inclusive since travel
restrictions based on budget restraints may dictate that field
organizations request these organizations to conduct the surveys
for them. In such cases, mutually acceptable agreements are
encouraged.
Section 21
b. When the volume of survey work assigned by geographical areas
exceeds the ability of the surveying field organization to absorb
the work, and the problem cannot be resolved between affected
field offices, DP-34 shall be notified. The affected surveying
field organization shall provide DP-34 with a current list of
facilities/interests within its assigned geographical area,
survey delay times, survey schedules, staffing status, and other
pertinent information. If the proposed delays are not
satisfactory, DP-34 will coordinate a resolution with affected
field office and program offices, recommending temporary
reassignment of surveys, personnel or resources to the Heads of
Departmental Elements.
,
3. FREQUENCY. Security surveys are conducted with the following
schedule:
a. Class nAil and "BII facil ities shall be surveyed at least once
every 12 months.
b. Class "C U and Class "AP" facil ities shall be surveyed at least
once every 18 months, except for those facilities containing
security interests listed in paragraph 3c, page IV-2.
c. Secure communication centers, classified automatic data
processing centers, remote interrogation points, sensitive
compartmented information facilities, and selected security
shipments shall be surveyed at least once every 12 months.
IV-2 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
d. Property Protection (Class "PP II ) facilities shall be surveyed at
least once every 24 months, except those facilities containing
security interests listed in subparagraph 3c above.
e. Those safeguards and security interests documented in a facility
Master Safeguards and Security Agreement as requiring protection
against industrial or radiological sabotage shall be surveyed at
least once every 12 months.
4. SURVEY REPORT CONTENT. Initial and periodic security survey reports
consist of a narrative section reflecting both the compliance and
performance segments of the survey and a completed survey report form
as supplied by DP-34. A copy of an approved survey report form is
shown as Attachment 111-1. Locally developed survey forms may be
used to supplement the approved survey report form.
a. A report on the results of a survey of a security interest should
include such items as:
(1) A statement of the survey scope and period of coverage.
(2) A statement regarding the facilityls function and scope of
operations related to security interests.
(3) An assessment of management (if appropriate) relative to .'~
security, program planning and review, and security control ~
exercised by the facility.
(4) Corrective actions on findings, including status of prior,
unresolved findings.
(5) Discussion of major points which had, or might have, a
significant effect on security controls at the facility.
b. A periodic survey report need not contain a complete narrative
description of each component and element of the security program
unless significant changes have occurred or 5 years have elapsed
since the last description. The phrases "no change" or lias
previously reported II may be used. However, the new report shall
identify the survey report which provides the latest description
of the unchanged item. When a complete report is warranted,
paragraph 4a above applies.
c. Special and termination survey reports may be written in
memoranda form.
Section 22
d. Within 60 working days after completion of the survey, the
surveying organization shall forward one copy of each survey
report to the responsible organization, one copy to DP-34,
copies to Headquarters elements as directed, and one copy to the
surveyed organization as determined locally. When the special
survey is the basis for granting facility approval for a new or
expanded security interest or for continUing facility approval
for an existing interest, and time is of the essence, the
surveying organization shall:
o
DOE 5634.1A •IV-3 (and I-¥-4)
2-3-88
(1) Advise the responsible organization by telephone or
teletype of the results of the survey;
(2) Confirm this action by memorandum; and/or
(3) Submit a formal survey report, as appropriate.
e. The surveying organization is not required to send a copy of a
survey report to a responsible organization when the only
security interest at the facility involves an individual
interest (e.g., consultant, responsible reviewer, or a person
with a personal service contract). In this case, the surveying
organization should advise the responsible organization by
memorandum that the interest has been included in the survey
report, the date of survey, composite survey rating, and
findings, if applicable.
f. The surveying organization shall forward copies of each
termination survey report, including the certificate of
nonpossession/possession, to the responsible organization, DP
34, and other Headquarters elements, as appropriate.
g. The surveying organization shall forward one copy of the
portions of the survey report regarding secure communications
centers or crypto facilities to the Director of Computer
Services and Telecommunications Management (MA-25).
5. TRAINING AND QUALIFICATIONS. Team personnel for security surveys
shall possess qualifications and training sufficient to accomplish
effective and thorough surveys.
6. COMPLIANCE SEGMENT. The compliance segment of the security survey
shall address how well the facility meets requirements contained in
DOE directives and the applicable facility Security Plan and/or
Master Safegaurds and Security Agreement. The results shall be
entered on an approved security survey report form.
7. PERFORMANCE SEGMENT. Surveys of facilities shall include a
performance evaluation to assess the capability of the
safeguards and security system to meet performance
objectives. The performance evaluation shall determine system
performance against scenarios for applicable threats/targets.

1. PURPOSE. To assure that facilities are maintaining effective
safeguards and security programs. This Order requires and
describes the conduct of surveys which provide such monitoring
and evaluation.
2. FREQUENCY.
a. Nuclear materials surveys of each license-exempt (as
defined in 10 CFR Part 50) contractor and Government
operated facility shall be performed annually for Category
I, II, and III materials, and biennially for Category IV
nuclear materials, unless:
(1) The total value of the nuclear materials inventory at
any time does not exceed $150,000 and the value of
nuclear material receipts for any 12-month period is
less that $500,000;
(2) The total inventory consists entirely of source
material, less than 10 tons of heavy water, less than
350 grams of SNM, or any combination of these; or
(3) Exception approval is obtained from the Operations
Office Manager or Director of Safeguards and Security
(DP-34).
b. Surveys of contractor facilities meeting the criteria in
paragraphs 2a(1) and 2a(2), above, shall be conducted at
the discretion of the Operations Office Manager.
Definitions of Categories I, II, III and IV are contained
in DOE 5633.3.
3. SURVEY REPORT CONTENT. Initial and periodic nuclear materials
survey reports consist of a narrative section reflecting the
results of both the compliance and performance segments of the
survey. For those facilities holding Category II and larger
quantities of SNM, an approved survey report form as provided
by Attachment 111-1.) Locally developed survey forms may be
used to supplement the approved survey report form.
a. A report on the results of a survey of nuclear materials
control and accountability should include such items as:
(1) A statement of the survey scope and period of
coverage.
o (2) A statement regarding the facility·s function and
scope of operations related to nuclear materials.

(2) Review and evaluate the cause, magnitude,
reasonableness, and disposition of accidental losses,
normal operational losses/measured discards, approved
write-offs, inventory differences, and shipper
receiver differences;
(3) Audit the nuclear material records and reports to verify the
accuracy of the facility's material status reports and
subsidiary records; and
{4} Observe inventory procedures and practices and control the
independent tests of the inventory to confirm the facility's
statement of the quantity of material on hand. Operations
offices may develop and use statistically based sampling plans
o
• appropriate for their site-specific needs to establish that
stated nuclear material quantities are accurate. Inventory
testing shall be based on a graded safeguards concept, and
documentation shall be maintained to support the survey
inventory testing criteria, sampling plans, test results, and
conclusions. For those populations that do not conform to
conventional weighing and sampling methods (or Non-Destructive
Assay analyses), confirmation of the contained nuclear
materials shall be consistent with accepted estimation
techniques, whether independently performed or observed by
survey personnel. Inventory exemptions for highly radioactive
materials are contained in DOE 5633.3, CONTROL AND
ACCOUNTABILITY OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS.
d. A periodic survey report need not contain a complete narrative
description of each procedure and element of the Material Control
and Accountability program unless significant changes have occurred
or 5 years have elapsed since the last description. The phrases
"no change" or lias previously reported" may be used. However, the
new report shall identify the survey report which provides the
latest description of the unchanged item.
e. Within 60working-days after completion of the survey, the surveying
organization shall forward one copy of each survey report to DP-34,
copies to Headquarters elements as directed, and one copy to the
surveyed organization as determined locally. When a special
nuclear materials survey is a part of the basis for granting
facility approval for a new or expanded safeguards and security
interest involving SNM, or for continuing facility approval for an
existing interest where SNM is present, and time is of the essence,
the surveying organization shall comply with the requirements of
Chapter IV, paragraphs 4d(1},(2) and (3), page IV-3.
4. TRAINING AND QUALIFICATIONS. Team personnel for nuclear materials
surveys shall possess qualifications and training sufficient to
accomplish effective and thorough surveys.
o 5. COMPLIANCE SEGMENT. The compliance segment of the nuclear materials

CHAPTER VI
SURVEY RATINGS AND FOLLOW-UP ACTIONS
1. RATING SYSTEM. Permissible composite nuclear materials or
security survey ratings are SATISFACTORY, MARGINALLY
SATISFACTORY, and UNSATISFACTORY. The following composite
survey rating shall reflect a balance of performance and
compliance results as determined by the surveying organization.
a. Satisfactory. The safeguards and security element being
evaluated meets identified protection needs or provides
plausible assurance that those protection needs will be met
.. should they arise •
b. Marginally Satisfactory. The safeguards and security
element being evaluated only partially meets identified
protection needs or provides questionable assurance that
those protection needs will be met should they arise.
c. Unsatisfactory. The safeguards and security element being
evaluated does not meet identified protection needs or does
not provide adequate assurance that those protection needs
will be met should they arise.
2. IDENTIFIED PROTECTION NEEDS. Identified protection needs are
those defined by DOE Orders as modified by approved MSSAs,
facility safeguards and security plans, approved safeguards and
security upgrades, and documented and approved exceptions to
DOE requirements. These modifiers specify site-specific
considerations and tailor the safeguards and security program
to the local mission and operating environment. They shall be
comprehensive and supportable relative to threat and safegaards
and security interests (i.e., targets).
3. USE OF THE "MARGINALLY SATISFACTORY" RATING. A facility shall
not be assigned a survey rating of Marginally Satisfactory for
consecutive survey periods unless the following conditions
apply:
a. The previous survey which resulted in a composite survey
rating of Marginally Satisfactory identified different
deficiencies and reasons for the rating.
c
b. Thp. deficiencies and reasons which were the basis for the
previous Marginally Satisfactory composite survey rating
were related to the completion of a major line-item
construction project. In that case, acceptable interim
measures must have been implemented and physically verified
pending completion of the construction. These interim
measures shall be documented in the survey report.
4. USE OF UNSATISFACTORY RATING. If either of the conditions
cited in paragraphs 3a or 3b above are not met, an
Unsatisfactory rating shall be assigned.
o
VI-2 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
J
5. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS AND SURVEY RATINGS. A composite nuclear
materials and/or security survey rating which must be based on
conditions existing when the rating was assigned. shall be
stated in the survey report, ratings shall not be based upon
future corrective actions. If corrective actions have been
taken in the interval between the performance of the on-site
survey and the aSSignment of the composite survey rating, the
final rating should reflect these actions.
6. DEFICIENCIES IN DOCUMENTATION. A facility·s failure to comply
with procedural documentation requirements, of and by itself,
shall not normally be the basis for a reduction in a composite
rating. Ratings of less than Satisfactory in any area shall be
based on verified weaknesses in the safeguards and security
system or deficiencies in performance in an operational area.
Section 26
7. COMPLIANCE. The compliance segment rating of a facility
reflects the judgments of the surveying organization as to the
assurance with which the facility·s safeguards and security
system protects the DOE interests located at that facility as
measured against related DOE directives, see page V-3,
paragraph 5.
8. PERFORMANCE. The rating for the set of exercises, system
studies, and technical evaluations, constituting the Jperformance segment of the survey, shall be based on an
evaluation of the degree to which the elements of the
safeguards or security system meet protection objectives.
9. SURVEY FOLLOW-UP AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS.
a. When a nuclear materials and/or security survey report
contains findings, the surveyed organization shall submit a
response identifying corrective action(s) for each finding
to the responsible and surveying organizations not later
than 30 days after receiving the survey report.
b. When a survey report indicates a composite rating of
Satisfactory and contains findings requiring corrective
action, the responsible organization shall provide to DP
34, appropriate Headquarters elements, and the surveying
organization (if appropriate), a quarterly status report of
corrective actions. Notification shall be by memorandum
and shall include the identification of the facility, a
description of the deficiency, and a description of
corrective actions taken to date or planned (with
associated milestone dates).
c. When a survey report has a composite rating of Marginally
Satisfactory, the responsible organization shall notify the J"
Director DP-34, the surveying organization (if
appropriate), and the applicable field and Headquarters
program office(s) within 15 working days after completion
a Q
DOE 5634.1A VI-3
2-3-88
of the survey of interim corrective actions taken, or to be
taken, to correct identified risks or vulnerabilities. If
interim corrective actions are instituted, the surveying
organization shall physically verify them for adequacy. If
the surveying organization differs from the responsible
organization, the surveying organization shall promptly
notify the responsible organization of the rating. The
responsible organization shall then take appropriate
corrective and notification actions outlined above or
authorize the surveying organization to take those
actions. If the surveying organization is unable to
contact the responsible organization and a serious threat
exists or is imminent, the surveying organization shall
take action to protect the safeguards and security
interest(s) until the responsible organization is
notified. Subsequent action shall be taken on the basis of
agreement between the two organizations.
d. When a survey report has a composite rating of
Unsatisfactory, and the rating is indicative of a
significant vulnerability such as unacceptable risk in the
area of SNM theft, radiological or industrial sabotage or
espionage, the Operations Office Manager shall immediately
or as soon as possible, but not later than within 24 hours:
(1) Take action to shut down/suspend operation of the
facility or activity, pending remedial action; or
(2) Provide the rationale for continuing this critical
operation to the Assistant Secretary for Defense
Programs (DP-l), Director, DP-34, Head~ of the
Headquarters Elements; as directed, the Head of the
responsible organization, responsible office, and the
applicable field and Headquarters program office(s)
and identify those immediate interim corrective
actions being undertaken to mitigate identified risks
or vulnerabilities.
Section 27
For all other Unsatisfactory ratings, the Operations Office
Manager of the responsible organization shall notify the
Secretary, DP-l, Director, DP-34, and Heads of Headquarters
Elements, as directed, applicable program and field
office(s), and the responsible office within 15 working
days of interim corrective actions taken, or to be taken,
to correct identified risks or vulnerabilities.
e. When either a Marginally Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory !composite rating is assigned, the responsible office shall
provide to DP-34 and the applicable field and Headquarters
program office(s) quarterly status reports on completed or I
planned corrective actions (with associated milestone
I
fdates) until all have been completed. When the responsible
organization determines that the composite survey rating
should be upgraded to Satisfactory, the surveying
VI-4 DOE 5634.1A
2-3-88
organization shall physically verify the completion and
adequacy of corrective actions for those deficiencies which
contributed to the Marginally Satisfactory or
Unsatisfactory composite rating. The responsible
organization shall then notify the Director DP-34 and the
Head(s) of applicable Headquarters Element(s) that the
rating should be upgraded.
f. A finding associated with a significant vulnerability shall
not be considered closed until associated corrective action
has been completed and the Director DP-34 and Heads of
Headquarters Elements are notified. A commitment by the
facility to institute corrective action does not constitute
completion of that corrective action.
