Title: TITLE 5 DATA MANAGEMENT ON THE HANFORD RESERVATION

Conference ·
OSTI ID:820822

The Title V air operating permit program has imposed reporting and certification requirements on the regulated community. For the US Department of Energy's Hanford Reservation, these requirements have presented a unique data management challenge. Addressing this challenge has necessitated development of electronic data management tools. The Hanford Reservation, a 560 square mile site located in Southeastern Washington State, qualifies as a major stationary source. There are more than 350 emission units on the site with hundreds of notices of construction (NOCs) that contain nearly 2,000 individual approval conditions. The number of active NOCs and approval conditions changes monthly as new cleanup projects begin and others end. Three regulatory agencies and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency share responsibility for enforcing the Clean Air Act requirements on the Hanford Reservation. Additionally, numerous contractors are responsible for managing the emission units and ensuring compliance with the applicable requirements. To track and report this large and fluid number of conditions and contractors, two new electronic management tools were developed, a Microsoft Access97{reg_sign} application, and an Intranet homepage. The presentation demonstrates these tools.
