Department of Energy Washington, DC 20585 February 6, 2015 MEMORANDUM FOR JEFFREY D. FEIT PROGRAM MANAGER DOE TECHNICAL STANDARDS PROGRAM OFFICE OF NUCLEAR SAFETY OFFICE OF ENVIORNMENT, HEALTH, SAFETY AND SECURITY \ FROM: JAMES B. O’BRIEN FU DIRECTOR OFFICE OF NUC BAR SAFETY OFFICE OF ENV ORPMENT HEALTH, SAFETY AND SECURITY SUBJECT: Cancellation of Department of Energy Handbook 1074-95, Alternate Systematic Approaches to Training The Office of Nuclear Safety proposes to cancel Department of Energy (DOE) Handbook 1074-95, Alternate Systematic Approaches to Training, and submits this proposal for a 60-day review and comment period in accordance with Section 4.4 of Technical Standards Program Procedures 7-2013, Maintaining DOE Technical Standards. The Office of Nuclear Facility Safety Programs has conducted research on the topic, and found no strong desire from the field organizations or contractors to maintain this document as an active Handbook. The Field and Program Offices indicated that newer industry standards and practices are a better resource for this type of information. Because of this, the Field and Program Offices and current site processes have accounted these changes and hence, for the lack of need for the standard.
