Occurrence Reporting and Processing System

The Department of Energy's Occurrence Reporting Program provides timely notification to the DOE complex of events that could adversely affect: public or DOE worker health and safety, the environment, national security, DOE's safeguards and security interests, functioning of DOE facilities, or the Department's reputation.

DOE analyzes aggregate occurrence information for generic implications and operational improvements. The Occurrence Reporting Program, including the Occurrence Reporting and Processing System (ORPS), are described in DOE O 231.1A, Environment, Safety and Health Reporting, and its associated Manual, DOE M 231.1-2, Occurrence Reporting and Processing of Operations Information. Other related documents are DOE G 231.1-1, Occurrence Reporting and Performance Analysis Guide, and DOE G 231.1-2, Occurrence Reporting Causal Analysis Guide.
