Abstract :
The author describes the program in progress at the Savannah River Site (SRS) to upgrade the existing reactor operating and maintenance procedures to current commercial nuclear industry standards. In order to meet this goal, the following elements were established: (1) administrative procedures to govern the upgrade process, (2) a tracking system to provide status and accountability, and (3) procedure writing guides. The goal is to establish a benchmark of excellence by which other Department of Energy sites will measure themselves. The above three elements are addressed in detail
