This Safety Analysis Report (SAR) for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Hardened Engineering Test Building (HETB, Building 334) provides the necessary information and analyses to conclude that the facility can be operated without endangering the safety of operating personnel or the public or adversely affecting environmental quality. This chapter provides a basic overview of the scope of the SAR and summarizes the facility design and processes, while Chapter 2 summarizes the safety analyses performed. Subsequent chapters discuss the following: The LLNL site, facility location, and environmental factors are described in Chapter 3; the facility and operation are described in Chapter 4; health protection, including safety systems and environmental safety, are provided in Chapter 5; hazards and accidents are analyzed in Chapter 6; the conduct of operations, covering both organizational structures and operational safety requirements, is discussed in Chapter 7; quality assurance is described in Chapter 8. Appendices contain detailed analytical information on selected topics. References are listed sequentially at the end of each chapter; to preclude excessive entries, common government agency references (e.g., DOE Orders) are not listed.
