Dear Mr. Chairman:

 

Enclosed is the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) Corrective Action Plan (CAP) for the DOE Order 5480.20A Training Review conducted by the Los Alamos Site Office (LASO) and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Service Center. This CAP provides the results of the site-wide evaluation of the training and qualification program for LANL committed to in my letter of September 17, 2004, in response to your letter of August 6, 2004. LASO has reviewed this with your staff. NNSA Headquarters and LASO management will work with the Board to ensure continuity and progress toward addressing identified training issues within the context of the Operation Efficiency project.

 

Please contact me, or have your staff contact Gerald Schlapper, LASO Senior Safety Advisor, at (505) 665-7111 if you have any questions.

 

Sincerely,

 

Linton F. Brooks

Administrator
