Homer's answer on 2/21/08 is

The question was:

When can we expect the responses to the RFC for the 3161 plan to be made public?

DOE rep Homer Williamson said:

I don't have a firm date but I know HQ is back to reviewing them after focusing on the VSSOP recently.

My commentary:

Either there have been thousands, perhaps millions of responses for DOE HQ to take this long to review them or there is a one person doing the review at their spare time. Comments from employees dont seem to be given priority.

Never mind the comments, how about showing us the plan. All that's out there is the draft.

Input/comments to NNSA are really valueless ... Comments probably out when everything (VSSOP, ISP)is over and completed. Check NTS 3161/comments ... seems like NNSA may be required to response, but will not change anything unless they are 'required'. Actual response(NTS/comments): "Comments noted. No action required". The operative word is "required" ... fair, equal, tax advantage, cost-saving, etc can't justify changes. Only if it's "required" and "required" is when it's written in contract or policy !!!

Unfortunately, the site-specific plan will not be posted on the DOE page. DOE says that it is a LLNS plan, and LLNS did not post it on the internal web page. The only response I have seen to inquiry about it is that the link on "retooling the lab" which pointed to the DOE page was removed.

A colleague showed me what I believe to be the approved site specific plan, and I noticed that it was marked OUO. As such, it can't be posted on the web.

I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

What the BFS. Why is it OUO. Are we special or are there just to many LLNS secrets. It's time to find them an post them for all to read even if you have to carry the document on google pages and then only post the link to it. I'm tired of being treated like a mushroom.
