Surplus Facilities Management Program: methodology for establishing decommissioning priorities

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5795540

The purpose of this document is to describe the process that the Surplus Facilities Management Program (SFMP) uses to establish and periodically re-evaluate the program priorities and budgets for decommissioning projects. This process consists of two phases. In the first phase, six factors are evaluated for each project. These factors are: DOE legal and contractual requirements; economic impact of immediate versus delayed decommissioning; health risk of delayed decommissioning; future site plans; cost effective program management; and other special factors that may be unique to individual projects. Each of the six factors is fully described.
