Accelerator Operations Department Readiness(Part
2)

• Mike Stanek
• Accelerator Systems Division, Deputy Operations
  Department head
• 14-Mar-2007

2
Operations is ready for LCLS Injector
Commissioning

• Operations Documentation and Training systems are
  mature, established, and proven.
• Required LCLS documention and training have been
  identified.
• Development of new required documents is complete
  (and continues to evolve.)
• For LCLS Injector Commissioning, we have
  integrated new documents into an existing system.
• Same approach was used for commissioning PEPII

3

• Roles and Responsibilities of Ops personnel are
  established.
• Ops manpower is committed to support LCLS
  Injector Commissioning plan.

4
Documentation

• Operations Dept owns the required documents.
• Developed with input from LCLS system designers
  and engineers
• Approvals Ops managers and Accelerator Division
  Safety Officer (also co-author for some
  documents)

5
Status of Required Documents

• LCLS Required Documents List has been generated
  by OPS, AD Safety Officer.
• Completed, verified, and released

6
Example

• LCLS Search Procedure

7
Operator Training to the LCLS Documents

• Safety systems Training must be in place prior
  to operation! (as with any SLAC PPS)
• PPS Certification Workbooks
• 1. Reading the Applicable Documents
• 2. Operating the PPS Controls
• 3. Searching the PPS Zone
• 4. Performing a Safety Inspection
• 5. Checking the PPS Interlocks
• 6. Trainer Supervisor signoff
• Incident and Alarm response
• Beam Containment System Procedures

8
Example

• LCLS PPS Certification Workbook

9
Specific Operations Dept. Training

• Administrative
• Operations Directives revised for LCLS
  Required Reading sheet (complete).
• Technical system operation
• Primarily On-the-Job, will be learning along
  with the commissioning physicists.
• Accelerator systems that do NOT impact personnel
  safety are incorporated into the Ops training
  workbooks over time with less formal treatment.

Operations Support of the Commissioning Plan

• Roles and Responsibilities are defined in AD
  Operations Directives
• Engineering Operator in Charge
• Responsible for safe execution of the scheduled
  program (PEPII and LCLS)
• Supervises and directs Operators on shift
• Operators (3-4 per shift)
• One per shift assigned to assist LCLS
  Commissioning
• Safety responsibilities (Search, PPS Operation,
  alarm response, etc.)
• Technical support (pre-run checkout, assist
  Commissioning team with measurements, tuning)
• Accelerator Dept Safety Officer

12
Beam Authorization Sheet

• Establishes Radiation protection conditions
  required to allow beam operation for each part of
  the accelerator.
• Includes Pre-run checks, Running conditions,
  Initial checkout (surveys and calibration)
• Radiation Physicist and AD Safety Office are
  co-authors
• EOIC is responsible for insuring conditions are
  met.
• Review and sign every shift
• LCLS Injector will have a BAS for commissioning
• Draft under review. It will be released to the
  EOIC when approval signatures are obtained from
  Radiation Physics, ADSO, and Head of Operations.

13
BAS - DRAFT
14
Work Control and Authorization

• Configuration control of required safety envelope
  devices.
• Work authorization is by Area Manager
• Reports to Accelerator Division management.
• Supports EOIC in controlling maintenance and
  repair work.
• Initiates Work Control forms, which triggers
  safety review, mitigation requirements, approvals
• eg. Radiation Safety Work Control Form (ADSO, Rad
  Physics)

15
Work Control (cont)

• Maintenance and repair work is tracked through a
  computer-based system (ARTEMIS).
• This system has built in work control, ISMS,
  and approval features.
• It has been modified for LCLS Injector system
  problem entries.
• Work on all SLAC Accelerator systems is subject
  to these controls. LCLS Injector fits in to the
  existing systems.
