2. Presentation Overview Purpose: Provide an overview of the design and implementation of an ISO 14001 EMS Project at Brookhaven National Laboratory Topics: Background on BNL Success Factors for Implementation Costs Lessons Learned Benefits

3. Brookhaven National Laboratory Mission: Basic and applied research in a variety of scientific fields: Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science Biology, Medicine and forefront technology Facts: Operated by Brookhaven Sciences Associates (BSA) for DOE 3000 employees; 4,000 visiting scientists annually 5,000 acre site located on eastern Long Island, NY Founded 1947 on former US Army�s Camp Upton BSA: Partnership between Battelle Memorial Institute and SUNY Stony Brook Founded 1947 on former US Army�s Camp Upton BSA: Partnership between Battelle Memorial Institute and SUNY Stony Brook

6. The Positron Emission Tomography (PET) facility. Brookhaven is a world leader in brain research, including how drugs, mental illness, nicotine, alcohol and even normal aging affect the brain. A Brookhaven collaboration was the first to discover that a drug used to control epilepsy stops cocaine's addictive effects in animals. In subsequent studies, Brookhaven researchers found that the drug effectively blocked test animals' craving for nicotine, heroin, alcohol and methamphetamine.

10. Laboratory Aspects Waste Generation regulated industrial hazardous radioactive mixed medical waste Atmospheric Emissions Radioactive or non-radioactive Liquid Discharges Chemical or radioactive Storage/Use Chemicals or Radioactive Materials Natural Resource Usage Water and power usage EMS Implementation at BNL Significant Environmental Aspects Facility Specific Aspects Historical/Cultural Resources Endangered species/ Sensitive habitats Habitat destruction, wetland disturbance, land clearing (5 or more acres) Environmental Noise Historical Contamination Soil Activation TRU waste Other, e.g.., asbestos research Hazmat Transportation

11.  Total Project Costs: Contributed Resources- Direct Project Costs $3.5 M $2.5 M $1.0 M

12. EMS Implementation at BNLLessons Learned Build on Existing Systems and infrastructure (very important!) Work Planning/ISM: Env Aspects, Operational Controls Quality Mgmt: Document Control, Nonconformance Human Resource: Structure & Responsibility Emergency Management: Emerg Preparedness & Prevention Integrated Assessment: Monitoring & Measuring, Audits Integrated Planning: Objectives & Targets, Env Mgmt Programs Training & Qualification: Training, Awareness, Competence Tap invaluable resource: People Systems Thinkers on Team, Pilot process first Team approach -- increases ownership, innovation, and value Senior Managers-- unwavering commitment & support

13. EMS Implementation at BNLLessons Learned Use Web-based systems Procedure and documentation delivery Patience�maturation of system takes time Anticipate �Requisite floundering� stage Expect resistance to organizational change Self-Examine, Self-Identify & Self-Correct Test programs & provide feedback Minimize external audit costs by minimizing findings - be prepared Set & prioritize your own improvement agenda Design for Successes Plan early victories Celebrate & recognize efforts Creates momentum
