OSTI ID:10185509

This report documents the result of the US Department of Energy (DOE) Environment, Safety and Health (ES&H) Progress Assessment of the Mound Plant in Miamisburg, Ohio. The assessment, which was conducted from August 24 through September 4, 1992, included a selective review of the ES&H management systems and programs of the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Defense Programs (DP), Albuquerque Field Office (AL), Dayton Area Office (DAO), and the site contractor EG&G Mound Applied Technologies (EG&G Mound). The ES&H Progress Assessments are part of the Secretary of Energy`s continuing effort to institutionalize line management accountability and the self-assessment process throughout DOE and its contractor organizations. The purpose of the Mound Plant ES&H Progress Assessment is to provide the Secretary with an independent assessment of the adequacy and effectiveness of the DOE and contractor management structures, resources, and systems to address ES&H problems and requirements. The main mission of the Mound Plant is to manufacture both non-nuclear and tritium-containing components for nuclear weapons that are assembled at other DOE sites. A summary of issues and progress in the areas of environment, safety and health, and management are included.
