Shapash Quick Reference Guide for NSSC Network Annual Meeting 2019

The main function of the SNRI is nuclear reactor research. The SNRI fabricates the fuel on site for this reactor. The SNRI also produces fuel for other facilities. The site is divided into two main areas. The first is the low-security Administration Area (AA), where much of the non-production activities take place. This low-security area contains the administration building, technical support buildings, and the Radioactive Waste Site. The second area is the Protected Area (PA). This very high-security area contains the Research Reactor Building, Fuel Fabrication Building, support buildings, Oxide Storage Bunker, the road and rail transportation terminus, and the main cafeteria.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Radiation Hazard Scale Data Product Review Feedback Report

In support of the Department of Energy (DOE) National nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) assisted in the development of new data templates for disseminating and communicating FRMAC1 data products using the CDC Radiation Hazard Scale communication tool. To ensure these data products will be useful to stakeholders during a radiological emergency, LLNL facilitated opportunities for product socialization and review.

Radiological Operations Support Specialist (ROSS) Pilot Course Summary and Recommendations

In support of the Department of Homeland Security / Science and Technology Directorate’s (DHS/S&T) creation of a new position called the Radiological Operations Support Specialist (ROSS), Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in Sub-task 1.1 and 1.2 has assisted in the development of the ROSS skills, knowledge, and abilities (SKAs); identified potentially relevant training; cross-mapped the training to the SKAs; and identified gaps in the training related to the SKAs, as well as their respective level of training knowledge - current versus desired. In the follow on task, Sub-task 1.3, a 5 day ROSS Pilot Training course was developed to fill the priority gaps identified in Sub-Task 1.2. Additionally, in Sub-Task 1.5, LLNL has performed a gap analysis of electronic tools, handbooks, and job-aides currently available to the ROSS and developed recommendations for additional and next generation tools to ensure the operational effectiveness of the ROSS position. This document summarizes the feedback received from the instructors and pilot course observers on what worked in the course and what could be improved as well as an assessment of the Pre- and Post-Test administered to the students.
