            Cybersecurity Modernization Initiative
                We are taking steps to continue to modernize and secure our data, applications, and systems. We completed the first phase and restored many of the functions put on pause in May 2021. Now that the first phase is complete, work will resume at a slower pace but will speed up as new systems and applications are brought online. For more information and updates, please visit our Cybersecurity Modernization Initiative web page.

(Site Profile/Docket Number 055)
Location: Richland, Washington
Also known as: Battelle (PNL)
Worker Outreach Activities
Based on a recommendation from the Advisory Board to provide workers and site experts with opportunities to participate in developing the technical documents used in dose reconstruction, NIOSH established a Worker
    Outreach Program.
At Worker Outreach Meetings, current and former DOE and AWE employees have opportunities to obtain information about Site Profiles, Technical Basis Documents, and Technical Information Bulletins, and to provide information for consideration and possible
    use in dose reconstruction. This process is valuable to ensure that the technical documents used in dose reconstruction contain correct and useful information.
Below are the Worker Outreach Activities for PNNL:
**April 22, 2004** Meeting with Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical and Energy Workers (PACE) Local #8-0369; Fluor Hanford-Hanford Guards Union Local #21
Note: The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Site Profile was introduced and discussed during the Hanford meeting.Final Minutes [49 KB (8 pages)]
Technical Documents
If the energy employee’s personal radiation information is incomplete, NIOSH will use other sources to estimate the radiation dose. This may involve using technical documents called Site Profiles, Technical Basis Documents, and Technical Information Bulletins.
Site Profile
ORAUT-TKBS-0027: Site Profile for Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Rev. 2 [976 KB (57 pages)] Revised September 12, 2016
**Revision Includes:**Modifies the scope of the PNNL Site Profile to reflect the decision to make no distinction between PNNL and Hanford until the year 2005. Combines the six technical basis documents into one Site Profile document for the period from 2005 to present. Incorporates formal internal and NIOSH review comments. Constitutes a total rewrite of the document.Advisory Board and NIOSH Discussions on Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)
