CHFS/DPH FY15-16 UK Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant

The University of Kentucky, CAER shall provide support services over a broad range of technical issues to the Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS) for oversight activities at the PGDP. This work shall be provided by CAER through the utilization of professional staff, faculty, research staff, and students. The work of the Radiation Control Branch to fulfill CHFS statutory mandates as they relate to Kentucky's oversight role of the decommissioning and remediation actions at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant are specified in two (2) distinctly different agreements. These are three (3) party agreements that specify the responsibility of the Department of Energy, the Energy and Environmental Cabinet (as it is now known) and the CHFS Radiation Health Branch. Agreement in Principle (AlP) is an agreement which specifies the field work, sampling, analysis and reporting requirements. Federal Facility Agreement (FFA) is an agreement which specifies roles, the regulatory processes, document review processes and responsibilities.
