**3.0 Requirements Implemented**

This surveillance is conducted to implement the RL Functions,
Responsibilities, and Authorities Manual (FRAM) item No. 2504.

**4.0 Surveillance Activities**

During this surveillance, the Facility Representative (FR) may evaluate
one or more aspects of a facility\'s hoisting and rigging program. The
surveillance may involve field observations of a lift, field review of
equipment, a program evaluation, or a review of hoisting and rigging
records. Choose one or more of the sections identified below to
evaluate, as appropriate. After each question, the Hoisting and Rigging
manual reference is included in brackets. Prior to initiating a
surveillance, it is highly recommended that the FR review the complete
sections of DOE-RL-92-36, \"Hanford Site Hoisting and Rigging Manual,\"
to obtain additional information and review all detailed requirements
imposed on the activity or program. This manual can be found at
