... The Committee on Evaluation of Chemical Events at Army Chemical Agent Disposal Facilities concurs with the Stockpile Committee in observing that the TOCDF is being operated in a safe manner, but that it can and should be continuously improving its safety programs and performance. The Committee on Evaluation of Chemical Events also concurs with the Stockpile Committee in its belief that future

... The PLL program is a comprehensive, multicomponent activity that is distributed across all PMCD demilitarization sites and includes workshops, assessments, technical bulletins, directed actions and updates, programmatic planning documents, site document comparisons, critical document reviews, and a "quick react" feature (Box 4-1~. PLL PROGRAM DATABASE The PLL program is a mechanism for developing and maintaining information associated with lessons related to preconstruction and construction activities, systemization, operations, and closure of the chemical demilitarization facilities.

... The responses are reviewed by the PLL team and incorporated into the PLL database. Programmatic planning documents that are mai ntai Red by the PLL team include a chemical demilitarization operations manual, PMCD management plan, PMCD information management plan, guide to systemization planning, guide to emergency response planning, and guide to closure planning (the last in draft form as of October 2001~.

... When the PLL program began in 1994-1995, the major source of issues was the review of documents (event reports, end-of-campaign reports, inspection reports, and so one. Now most of the information comes from the facilitated workshops run by the PLL program, which allow input and peer review by multiple program personnel with expertise in the subjects under discussion.

... (Both types are included in the PLL database.) For all operating chemical facilities, design changes are part of a continuing process aimed at taking advantage of lessons learned from ongoing operations, new technology as it is developed, or better procedures developed at a plant or transferred from another facility.
