3.1.1 DOE/NNSA Review of Beryllium Work Out of the Scope of the CBDPP

Appendix B of LLNL Chronic Beryllium Disease Prevention Program (UCRL-AR-144636 Rev. 1.1) lists specific approved operations. New work that is outside the operations listed in the CBDPP must meet the requirements of the ES

Under 10 CFR 850, DOE/NNSA Oakland is permitted a 90-day review period, except in cases of emergency response. To allow for an appropriate period of time for review and approval the ES

3.2 Exposure Reduction and Minimization Program

When exposures as determined without accounting for respiratory protection equal or exceed the AL (see Section 3.3), a formal, operation-specific exposure reduction and minimization program shall be established. This operation-specific program, which is incorporated into the Laboratory's CBDPP and then approved by the DOE, shall include the following:

* Annual goals for exposure reduction and minimization.

* The rationale for the goals.

* Strategies for meeting the goals.

* Actions to be taken to achieve the goals.

* A means for tracking progress towards meeting the goals and demonstrating that the goals have been met.

When a formal exposure reduction and minimization program is required, the authorizing organization is responsible for developing the program in concert with the Hazards Control and Health Services Departments.

The following sections of this document shall be addressed as part of a formal exposure reduction and minimization program:

* Engineering controls (Section 3.4, "Engineering Controls").

* Periodic monitoring (Section 3.5.5, "Exposure Monitoring").
