Baselines are not necessarily available for all facilities, particularly those judged (through professional expertise) to not warrant a baseline. What does “appropriate” mean in this situation?
Response: 851.21(c) initial baseline information is the compilation of information gathered for the first time to meet the requirements of 851.21(a). The resultant information should be commensurate with the hazards and risk to workers. This information could be in the form of a facility baseline hazards assessment for occupied operations or laboratories; it could be routine safety inspections of office facilities; or it could be a list of known or anticipated hazards in a locked/barred old process building. The focus is to obtain hazard information and provide controls commensurate to the work being performed and the exposure to workers. The initial baseline information may be from multiple sources and tailored to the hazards and risk to worker. The baseline information may be in the form of: IH baseline hazard assessments from DOE O 440.1A, Preliminary Hazard Analysis, Fire Hazard Analysis, Nuclear Safety categorization analysis and IH/IS inspections of the work site.
