Worker Safety and Health Program: Safety-Conscious Work Environment

The Department of Energy received a petition from the Hanford Challenge on August 18, 2009, requesting the initiation of a rulemaking regarding safety policies at DOE's nuclear facilities. The petition calls for DOE to establish by regulation a safety program using the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's "Safety-Conscious Work Environment" guidelines as a model. Public comment is requested on whether DOE should grant the petition and proceed with a rulemaking procedure on this matter.
