1 Office of Legacy Management FY06-10 Program Plan Office of Legacy Management US Department of Energy April 30, 2004

2 Executive Summary This Office of Legacy Management FY06-10 Program Plan outlines the major goals, objectives, and targets of the Office of Legacy Management through The Program Plan is the formal mechanism to ensure that the Department s strategic planning goals, as described in the recently issued Strategic Plan, cascade into lower Departmental level planning documents. The Program Plan is the planning mechanism that aligns the Department s major activities and resources against specific performance goals. In the simplest terms, the Program Plan discusses the how and when things are to be done. Finally, the Program Plan serves as the next step in institutionalizing the Department s planning, programming, budgeting, and evaluation processes. This planning effort is critical if the Department is to meet its commitments to the President, the Congress, and the taxpayers. Formation of the Office of Legacy Management The Department established the Office of Legacy Management (LM) in December 2003 to manage its responsibilities associated with the legacy of the Cold War. The Department has taken major steps toward fulfilling its commitment to cleanup the environmental portion of this legacy and is now faced with large scale closure of entire sites and the associated impacts on the federal and contractor workforce. Since the inception of the program in December 2003, LM has made significant progress in establishing an organization and associated policies and procedures. Establishing a solid base of operations is critical because LM scope is expected to grow rapidly over the next five years. The majority of this growth is the transfer of responsibility from the Office of Environmental Management (EM) to LM. Growth is expected in the Number of Sites and Resource Requirements At the end of 2004, LM will be responsible for protection of human health and the environment at 67 sites at an annual cost of $28 million. The majority of these are either former uranium mill tailing sites or sites associated with the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial Action Program (FUSRAP). In general these sites require a minimal level of long-term care in some cases only record keeping. However, by 2010, LM is expected to be responsible for over 100 sites as EM completes its cleanup activities and additional sites transfer from private licensees and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The post-cleanup care of some of these new sites is expected to be much greater in scope and complexity than the sites currently within LM. By 2015, LM will be managing land, environmental liability, and/or records for 120 sites. During this period LM will have accepted responsibilities for over 60 sites from EM, the USACE and private licensees. i

3 Cumulative Number of LM Sites Per Year Number of LM Sites Fiscal Year *Site numbers do not reflect planned or possible disposal of real property at LM sites. *Many of these sites are not owned by the federal government but involve past or current liability. *LM activities for a number of these sites is limited to record keeping. Oversee the Continuity of Post-Closure Benefit The Department of Energy s oversight of benefits for its former contractors work force is unique in the Federal Government in that the agency s mission is to avoid benefit interruption or inconvenience while maintaining and improving the quality of service to post-closure plan participants. The benefits come in two primary forms: pension plans and medical benefits. With the completion of closure contracts at three major DOE sites, LM is exploring options to avoid interruption in providing those plans and benefits. The pension plans are highly dependent on the stocks and bonds in which they are invested and the medical plans are affected by the number and ages of former contractors and the rate of healthcare inflation. These uncertainties can have a significant impact on LM s budgeting and planning efforts. By 2010, LM will be overseeing the administration of post-closure benefits to thousands of former contractor employees associated with seven sites (Pinellas, Grand Junction, the Gaseous Diffusion Plants, Rocky Flats, Mound and Fernald). The Department has placed a Strong Emphasis on the Safe, Beneficial Reuse of Real Property As the Department, the USACE and the private licensees complete cleanup, the land will become available for other uses. The potential uses of these properties range from reindustrialization to wildlife refuges and park land to open space. LM will work closely with the affected communities, the local governments, our regulators, and the adjacent landowners to identify beneficial reuse that is safe for the public and protective of the environment. By 2015, LM will have disposed of real property at ten sites. Sites where LM will support or lead the real property transfer effort include: the Mound site, the Salmon site, the New Brunswick Laboratory, the Wayne, NJ site, the Rocky Flats site and the East Tennessee Technology Park. LM is working to ii

4 identify additional site where disposal of real property would enhance safe, beneficial reuse. Managing the Department s Liability and Honoring our Commitments A major responsibility associated with the cleanup sites and the oversight of former contractors benefits is the cost effective management of large volume of records and information. Records and information are needed to ensure long-term protection of human health and the environment, provide appropriate benefits, and be able to respond to claims including Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act claims. To ensure the cost-effective management of the Department s environmental and benefits related liabilities, LM will require a stand-alone repository for maintaining all legacy management records that meets federal requirements and industry standards. Planning for addressing this critical need is underway at the time this Program Plan was prepared. In summary, LM is actively working to establish its management goals and refine its organizational structures and operating principles to manage its anticipated expansion of scope. Although each site transferring into LM is unique, there are common goals that LM must achieve for all of its sites. LM is developing a cadre of staff experienced in site transition, long-term surveillance and maintenance, pensions and benefits and records management that can be deployed, as needed, to ensure LM's goals are achieved. Consistent with the Department s Strategic Plan, LM is working to ensure that the cleanup remedies remain protective, that the committments made regarding pensions and benefits are met, and that the stakeholders, state, local and Tribal governments and the public remain aware of LM's activities and are able to contribute its decision-making process. iii

Washington, DC michael.owen@hq.doe.gov Web site under development. Section 3 DOE Strategic Plan General Goal Environment Strategic Goal: To protect the environment by providing a responsible resolution to the environmental legacy of the Cold War and by providing for the permanent disposal of the Nation s high-level radioactive waste. General Goal 6, Environmental Management: Accelerate cleanup of nuclear weapons manufacturing and testing sites, completing cleanup of 108 contaminated sites by Section 4 Mission Statement and Program Goal Mission Statement: The mission of the Office of Legacy Management is ensure protection of human health and the environment through effective long-term stewardship of land, structures, facilities, and records, and oversee the Department s post-closure responsibilities for former contractor employees. Program Goal: By 2015, the Office of Legacy Management will be responsible for: the cost effective management of land, structures, facilities and/or records for over 120 sites, employee benefits for the Department s former contractor workforce at seven sites; and the disposal of real property at ten sites. Section 5 Objectives and Performance Targets The Office of Legacy Management was established to oversee the continuity of former contractor benefits and ensure the long-term management of the land and environmental remedies, the beneficial reuse of real property and facilities, and management of records associated with those DOE sites that no longer support a DOE mission. A complete list of LM s current site responsibility is provided in Appendix A. Although LM was established in December 2003, a 1

7 few months after the release of the most recent DOE Strategic Plan, LM has an important role in achieving the Department s Environment Strategic Goal. In addition to the primary functions identified above, LM is also responsible for the management of strategic materials, promoting local economic development, environmental justice activities, workforce restructuring, and labor relations. These crosscutting functions are performed by LM on a department wide basis and are not limited to sites that have been closed. These functions are either performed by federal employees or require minimal program funds relative to the other LM activities. For this reason, this Program Plan does not identify specific objectives or targets for those areas. Managing the Transfer of Responsibility from EM to LM While LM s primary functions are expected to remain the same, the magnitude of the scope associated with each function will increase dramatically over the next five years. The majority of this increase is the anticipated transfer of program scope from EM to LM and is associated with the completion of the EM cleanup mission at the Department s closure sites. The orderly transition of scope is critical to the achievement of the DOE key intermediate objectives identified below. DOE Order 430.1B, Real Property Asset Management, provides both the process and the requirements for the transition of real property and programmatic responsibility. Projected scope transfer includes: the Nevada Off sites, Rocky Flats, four Ohio sites, East Tennessee Technology Park, as well as numerous other small sites. A complete list of sites expected to transition to LM is provided in Appendix B.

8 DOE Strategic Plan Key Intermediate Objectives There are a number of Key Intermediate Objectives associated with the Department s Environment Strategic Goal. Five of those seven relate to LM s mission, goals and objectives. These departmental objectives and the responsible Program Secretarial Officer (PSO) are listed below. While multiple PSOs have responsibility, boldface type, e.g., EM denotes the lead PSO. By the end of FY 2005, the Department completes cleanup and transfers approximately half of the Hanford site to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. (EM) By the end of FY 2006, the Department completes cleanup of Fernald (Ohio) and Mound sites (Ohio) and transfers the Mound site to the Miamisburg Mound Community Improvement Corporation. (EM/LM) By the end of FY 2006, the Department completes the cleanup of Rocky Flats (Colorado) and transfers the Rocky Flats Wildlife Refuge to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. (EM/LM) By 2008, the Department completes cleanup of the East Tennessee Technology Park. (EM/LM) By 2012, the Department completes cleanup of the Hanford River Corridor project. (EM) By 2025, the Department completes cleanup 108 of 114 sites, leaving six: Hanford, Idaho National Laboratory, the Nevada Test Site, Tonapah Test Range area, the Paducah site, and the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant. (EM/NNSA/SC/NE/LM) Throughout the planning period, the Department maintains long-term stewardship at the sites containing residual radioactive or hazardous material after cleanup has been completed until they are transferred. (EM/NNSA/NE/SC/LM) LM Support to the Key Intermediate Objectives To support achievement of these DOE key intermediate objectives LM has identified four primary objectives with associated performance targets. As noted in the key external factors section, LM s ability to achieve its performance objectives and associated targets (particularly those associated with disposal of real property) are highly dependent on the cleanup schedule of third parties and the extent to which cleanup is conducted. Note: The Objectives, Performance Targets, and schedules identified herein are for planning purposes only and do not constitute financial or contractual commitments by the Federal government. LM Objective 1: Long-term Management of Land and Environmental Remedies By the end of FY 2015, LM will be managing land, environmental liability, and/or records for over 120 sites. During this period LM will have accepted responsibility for over 60 sites from EM, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and private licensees. 3

12 Section 6 Program Evaluation LM will ensure that an effective and well disciplined Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Evaluation (PPBE) process is implemented that will: support established Program Strategic Performance Goals (PSPGs); identify the level of performance to be achieved in meaningful, objective, quantifiable, and measurable terms; include the necessary resources required to meet performance goals; and, establish how performance will be measured and compared to established goals. The LM PPBE process provides a systematic framework for planning and prioritizing program needs, allocating resources, measuring performance and delivering desired results in order to achieve established performance goals. Combined with the Department s Strategic Management Cascade, the LM PPBE process clearly links annual performance with annual budget resources and the PSPGs. The LM PPBE system will be dynamic enough to integrate interdependent mission elements into synchronized performance management system. This system will accommodate ongoing operational activities with no set duration periods, acquisition activities with specific durations, or combined acquisition and operational programs. A key component of LM s PPBE is the development and maintenance of life-cycle baselines. Life-cycle baselines provide key performance, scope, cost and schedule parameters necessary to achieve long-term programmatic strategic goals. Established Earned Value Management (EVM) systems will be employed to integrate all baseline elements (scope, schedule, and cost) and measure program performance. LM currently uses a PPBE system that meets the requirements established by the Office of Environmental Management (EM) for their Integrated Planning, Accountability, and Budgeting System (IPABS) for a majority of its work. IPABS is a high-level project-based management system that was developed to support the (EM) PPBE process. In the short-term, LM will continue to use this system and expand it to accommodate new LM program missions. Over the long-run LM will refine and improve on its performance management systems to more closely align those systems with the Department s desire to expand established project management (DOE O 413.3) principles to ongoing operational activities. In the short-term LM will continue to develop standardized operating policies and procedures (SOPPs) that are necessary to assure uniform application and execution of its performance management system components. Draft SOPPs that describe how program/project life-cycle baselines are planned, developed, validated, managed and modified have already been developed. Over the short term these SOPPs will be finalized and implemented across the entire LM organization. Baseline change control, configuration management processes, and status reporting requirements will also be formalized to support Departmental requirements. Over the long-term LM will continue to develop, update and integrate its PPBE processes and system to create a dynamic continuous cycle of planning, program execution, and reporting that meets Departmental, Government Performance Results Act of 1993 (GPRA), and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requirements. Section 7 Key External Factors 7

13 Fluctuations in the Value of Pension Plans Funding requirements associated with retired contractor pension plans are highly dependent on the underlying value of the pension plan investment portfolio. Changes in the bond and stock markets can have significant impacts on the financial viability of the pension plans and in turn cause sudden and potentially significant impacts on the Department s responsibility to maintain the minimum balances associated with the plans. Significant and Uncontrollable Increases in the Cost of Healthcare The Department is currently responsible for the administration of thousands of retired contractors medical plans. There are several factors that can serve to substantially increase the costs associated with these plans. These factors include: the inflation rate associated with healthcare (15% versus the standard 2.6% for typical government services); the number of retired contractors eligible for care; the offsets associated with payments provided through Medicare; the age of the retirees and their health. Completion of Cleanup Work by Third Parties LM is dependent on the level of cleanup (industrial, residential, recreational), the number and types of residual hazards (disposal cells, contaminated groundwater) and the schedules of the entities performing the cleanup. LM will receive responsibility for sites cleaned up by the Office of Environmental Management, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the private licensees associated with uranium mill tailings sites. Remedy decisions and acceleration or delays in the cleanup work could have significant impacts on LM s ability to achieve its stated goals and objectives. Regulatory Authority LM is responsible for the long-term surveillance and maintenance of a significant number of environmental remedies that have been installed on federal property. Regulatory authority at these sites varies but includes: the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, individual State regulators, and in some cases, local governments. The DOE Organization Act may be viewed as providing LM with only limited authority to make and/or conduct regulatory decisions and/or actions. LM needs to clarify its authority in this area to ensure long-term effectiveness. Stakeholder Interface Successful coordination and collaboration with external stakeholder groups, governmental organizations, and Tribal Nations is vital to successfully transition and manage sites that are not cleaned up to unrestricted use. Section 8 Five-Year Budget and Performance Integration Addendum The appropriation for Office of Legacy Management has been divided between Defense and Energy Supply activities. The Defense activities include long-term surveillance and maintenance, pension and benefit continuity, records management, worker and community transition, environmental justice and all program direction. The Energy Supply activities are long-term surveillance and maintenance and pension and benefit continuity. 8

14 The following table shows three values for each major activity. The Office of Legacy Management received a target to use in preparing the Program Plan and this has been allocated among the activities in the Within Target amounts. The second value of Current Responsibilities Additional Budget Transfer encompasses the amount needed to fund the responsibilities of the Office of Legacy Management that exist at the end of FY The budget target was based upon the target that was transferred with the various activities in FY Improved estimates and inflation have indicated that additional budget target must be transferred to provide adequate funding. The third value is for the activities that will transfer in FY 2006 or later years. The significant increase in FY 2007 is due to the transfer of the pension and benefit responsibility for the three sites scheduled to close within FY This budget amount would be transferred from the Office of Environmental Management. Note: The values shown for FY 2005 in the table assume that the program activities will receive appropriations as requested. The values shown for FY are only projections of program activity that assume certain appropriation levels and critical milestones will be accomplished as scheduled. As each specific budget is prepared and reviewed, these estimates are likely to change. 9
