DOE Technical Standards

DOE standards, handbooks, and specifications established, approved, and maintained in accordance with the DOE Technical Standards Program (see the current version of DOE O 252.1, Technical Standards Program). DOE standards provide specific standardized approaches, methodologies, technical criteria, or other information on accomplishing a task, developing a plan, and/or performing a calculation or assessment to implement a DOE requirement. DOE standards provide a common shared approach or methodology for implementing a DOE requirement such that its implementation is consistent across DOE programs and operations.
