reviewing mechanical, electrical, flammable gas, fire protection, ODH and
radiation safety aspects of all experiments. In addition, the committee is
responsible for coordinating reviews of any cryogenic systems by existing
cryogenics safety panels. ``Experiment" is defined as all detector components
and associated support equipment. The Committee shall review the systems
indicated on the appropriate Preliminary Hazard Assessment spreadsheets for the
hazards which are shown against applicable standards and ensure that proper
analysis and documentation exists. The Committee shall review Quality
Assurances aspects of these experiments during the course of the EH&S reviews
such as ensuring good engineering design, practices and documentation exists.
Additional systems or items identified by the Committee, the Physics division
head or Senior Safety Officers of the Physics division shall also be reviewed.
The Committee is free to combine several system reviews into one report (i.e.
all systems having conventional electrical hazards may be completed in a single
review.). A ``design review" shall be performed at or near the conclusion of
the design stage of each new system or modified previously used system. An
``operating review" shall be performed prior to initial operation of each
system. The Committee may elect to perform additional reviews for particularly
complex or hazardous systems. The results of these reviews shall be
communicated to the head of the Physics division in a report which contains the
following documentation:
- A summary report of the
compliance status of the system, recommendations for correcting deficiencies or
approving operation, and recommendations for modification to the SAD. The
summary report should include references to applicable standards and should
clearly indicate which items were reviewed. The summary report should also
include the results of cryogenic system revie ws performed by existing cryogenic
safety panels
- All supporting documentation such as checklists,
calculations and notes.
The summary report and supporting
documentation will be retained in the Physics division Office experiment files.
Radiation safety reviews shall satisfy the requirements of theTJNAF Radiological
Control Manual. A EH&S Review Coordinator will be assigned to each experiment.
The Review Coordinator will monitor the design, construction and installation
phases of the experiment and contact the Committee chair at least two weeks
prior to any needed review. The Committee may request supplemental assistance
from the Physics division to complete these reviews in a timely fashion.
