Book Description
The Dept. of Energy (DoE) oversees contractors that operate more than 200 "high-hazard" nuclear facilities, where an accident could have serious consequences for workers and the public. DoE is charged with regulating the safety of these facilities. A key part of DoE's self-regulation is the Office of Health, Safety and Security (HSS), which develops, oversees, and helps enforce nuclear safety policies. This is the only DoE safety office intended to be independent of the program offices, which carry out mission responsibilities. This report examines: (1) the extent to which HSS meets elements of effective independent nuclear safety oversight; and (2) the factors contributing to any identified shortcomings with respect to these elements.

Book Description
In the late 1990s, a number of incidents at nuclear weapons facilities highlighted important security weaknesses at the Department of Energy (DOE).1 To address these weaknesses, DOE has developed numerous initiatives to improve nuclear security. The initiatives cover a broad range of security areas physical security, personnel security, information security, cyber security, and counterintelligence. Some of these initiatives require the creation of new offices and new policies, while others require the development of programs and processes meant to address specific weaknesses. In addition, the Congress sought to improve nuclear security by creating the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) on March 1, 2000, as a separately organized agency within DOE. As a result of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, improving security has taken on a higher priority given the sensitivity and hazards of the work that DOE and NNSA perform.
