Re: DOE Emergency Preparedness Plans

     I have attached an article (MSWord 7.0) on DOE Emergency 
     Classification I wrote for the 1995 Winter NRRPT Newsletter.  This may 
     answer some of your questions.  Since the article was written, DOE has 
     consolidated the suite of emergency management orders (commonly 
     referred to as the 5500 series orders) into one comprehensive order, 
     DOE Order 151.1.  Along with the orders, DOE issued several Emergency 
     Management Guides on how to implement the order requirements.  These 
     guides have been revised and are now in the review and approval 
     process.  Copies of the DOE Order (now called directives) can be 
     downloaded from the internet at:
     
     http://www.explorer.doe.gov:1776/htmls/regs/doe/newserieslist.html
     
     The DRAFT guides can be downloaded at:

     If you have any questions you can contact me directly or post to the 
     server.
