Maintenance implementation plan for solid waste management

This Maintenance Implementation Plan (MIP)was developed for implementation of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Order 4330.4A, A Maintenance Implementation Program (DOE 1990) which has been replaced by 4330.4B (DOE 1994) at the Hanford Site SWM complex. It addresses maintenance functions associated with SWM, which includes the field operational group and the facilities operational group. An assessment of the existing maintenance programs for SWM was performed, and the results of this assessment were evaluated to determine corrective actions required to bring Solid Waste Maintenance into compliance with the order. The objective of this MIP is to provide baseline information for the control and execution of SWM Maintenance activities relative to the requirements of Order 4330.4B, Chapter II. (Nuclear Facilities) It also describes actions that are planned to achieve compliance. Section 2.0 of this MIP summarizes the mission, history, and future plans of SWM. Section 3.0 describes maintenance scope and requirements, and outlines the overall strategy (both near- term and long-term) for implementing improvements to the maintenance program. Specific elements of DOE Order 4330.4B are addressed in Section 4.0, including objectives of each element, a discussion of how SWM addresses these objectives, proposed improvements, and references to Westinghouse Hanford Company (Westinghouse Hanford) policies and procedures. Section 5.0 addresses deviations from policy requirements, and Section 6.0 presents the implementation schedule for planned improvements
