The CHESS Safety Committee will meet every two weeks to discuss
proposals and other safety matters.
A safety committee vice-chairman will be appointed. At minimum, the
CHESS safety committee chairman (Dana Richter),
the safety committee vice-chairman (Ken Finkelstein),
and the cognizant safety officer will approve safety committee decisions
that do not go through the full committee. If the chairman or
vice-chairman are not available, another member of the safety committee
can be designated to fill in.
A log book of Safety Committee actions will be maintained to record any
and all procedural steps related to alterations of the CHESS Safety
system. Entries in this book will only be made by members of the CHESS
staff. The book will record actions taken in alterations in any of the
beam lines, or beam transport systems, that are outside of the CESR
chain. Entries in the standard log books for each line or piece of
equipment will be made irrespective of safety log entries. It will be
possible for example, to make a log entry into a beam line book which
refers to a more complete description in the CHESS Safety book.
