3.1.4 Executive Safety Board (ESB)
The ESB serves as Glenn Research Center (GRC) safety policy and decision making board, and is responsible to the Center Director for the overall direction of the Glenn Safety Program. The ESB established a system of Safety Committees to conduct detailed third party reviews of specified Center operations.
3.1.5 PBRF Safety Committee (PSC)
The PSC was chartered by the ESB to conduct safety reviews of all matters with safety implications relative to maintaining protected safe storage of the Plum Brook Reactor Facility. The purpose of the reviews is to assure that operations, written procedures, facility changes, and future plans comply with NRC licenses and regulations, do not involve unreviewed safety questions, and provide protection to the public, on-site workers, the facility, and the environment. A prime consideration in the PSC activities is to ensure that all public and employee radiation exposures are maintained as low as reasonably achievable. Items of review shall include routine maintenance, proposed changes, new and evised procedures, facility changes, changes in Technical Specifications, and audit reports.
The PSC shall consist of a minimum of four persons and shall meet at least twice each year. The PSC shall have at least one member with a nuclear background and one other member familiar with the conditions of the facility. In addition, the Radiation Safety Officer shall also be a member. A quorum of the PSC shall be two-thirds of the members but not less than three members, whichever is greater. In 21
