Bush, T S

In 1985, WINCO implemented their original Radiological Control Manual (RCM). In 1990 this manual was used as a basis for company wide RCM. Then in 1992 the Westinghouse RCM was utilized by DOE in the development of the DOE RCM. In December 1992 an individual was assigned as the Implementation coordinator. The implementation was divided into articles, and sometimes paragraphs and sentences. The implementation coordinator sent letters to each responsible individual to instruct them on the actions necessary to implement the article and the completion due date. The coordinator then made contact monthly to ensure the actions were being carried out. Because the assignment of responsible individuals came from their department managers, they were anxious to do whatever was necessary to close out the articles.
