  1. LEPP Safety Committee DSR ROUNDTABLE December 8, 2006 Steve Gray

  2. 1935 First Cyclotron Outside Berkeley DSR ROUNDTABLE

  3. 1948 Laboratory of Nuclear Studies DSR ROUNDTABLE

  4. 1965-8 Wilson Synchrotron Lab DSR ROUNDTABLE

  5. 1979 CLEO Collaboration DSR ROUNDTABLE

  6. 1980 CHESS X-Ray Light Source DSR ROUNDTABLE

  7. LNS / LEPP • Accelerators • Design, Build, Operate, Research • Particle Physics - CLEO • Design, Build, Use Particle Detectors • Collaboration with 60-200 physicists from    6 - 20 Universities • Employ ~150 staff, Spend ~$15-20 M/yr • (CHESS ~50 staff, ~500 users, ~$8 M/yr) DSR ROUNDTABLE

  8. LNS/LEPP Safety Committee • Radiation Safety first concern • Natural to include other issues • Fire, electrical, occupational • Chair - Lab Executive Officer • Members - Director, Lab Staff with appropriate expertise & responsibilities • Meet at least 4 times/year • Safety is a Line Management Responsibility DSR ROUNDTABLE

  9. Evolution • Demands of Funding Agencies • DOE Tiger Teams • LNS Safety Director • Local Training Programs • Project Reviews DSR ROUNDTABLE

  10. Evolution • Decline of University “exemption” • OSHA, DOT, EPA accountability • More Active Campus EH & S DSR ROUNDTABLE

  11. Charter Duties • to ensure proper safety training/documents are provided (and available) to staff, students, and visitors. • to provide a forum to discuss safety issues. • to review (annually) and keep current the LEPP Safety Handbook. • to prepare and keep current all safety documents required by the University. • to assist in implementing campus-wide safety programs mandated by the University and work with Cornell safety professionals to resolve safety issues at LEPP. • to review safety aspects of new (or significant changes in) large-scale/safety critical experiments/projects/facility modifications. DSR ROUNDTABLE

  12. Charter Duties • to provide training for circumstances unique to our Laboratory • to participate in safety audits of LEPP operations as required. • to conduct annual safety inspections of the entire LEPP and ensure unsafe conditions/practices are corrected. • to respond to safety-related policy and/or compliance questions. • to provide an on-site safety presence at LEPP and serve as a good example to the community. DSR ROUNDTABLE

  13. Safety Committee Questions • Employee Representation • OSHA model • Accident & Injury Prevention • California model DSR ROUNDTABLE

  14. Future • 2008 LEPP + CHESS + • Accelerator Research + • Energy Recovery Linac Project + • Particle Physics in Europe + • International Linear Collider Project + DSR ROUNDTABLE

  15. Physics labs consolidate to build a new accelerator • Two of Cornell's major research organizations have combined to become the Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator-based Sciences and Education (CLASSE, pronounced "class"). DSR ROUNDTABLE
