It is not yet evident that non-nuclear operations are receiving adequate ISM attention. The Japan criticality incident raised concerns with Congress about DOE facility safety. Mr. DiNunno is confident that ISM can work. Congressional skepticism is that we can produce good documents and great plans, but don't do too well to implement and enforce those plans. Accountability Contractors have an obligation for doing work on time and within schedule and within the ISM framework.
Effective enforcement requires a balance.
In closing, Mr. DiNunno stated that he is ready to go public with the DOE ISM implementation. This web site is a service of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Computing, Information and Networking Division for the U.S. Department of Energy.
