Analysis of stakeholder concerns for the environmental restoration and waste management program
- and others
The Office of Waste Management, Department of Energy (DOE) directed this study to improve understanding of the concerns of their stakeholders. The data was gathered from the open-ended comments made during the Office of Environmental Restoration and Waste Management (EM) Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS) Scoping Meetings in 1990-1991. A content analysis process was applied to the comments to develop a list of issues and sub-issues the stakeholders want DOE to address. From these issues, a set of recommendations were made. This paper contributes a set of stakeholder concerns grouped according to issues for the Environmental Restoration and Waste Management Program (ERWM). These stakeholder concerns can be translated into strategic issues for EM to consider in its planning efforts. The description of major issues and sub-issues helps identify the strengths and weaknesses of EM as defined by its stakeholders. Opportunities and threats for EM can also be identified through the study of these issues. Finally, a set of recommendations for DOE from these concerns is described.
