The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Enterprise Assessments (EA) conducted an independent assessment of conduct of operations (CONOPS) program implementation at the Savannah River Site H-Canyon in January and February 2026. H-Canyon is a hazard category 2 nuclear facility and is managed by the site management and operating contractor, Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC (SRNS), which is overseen by the DOE Savannah River Operations Office (DOE-SR), within the Office of Environmental Management (EM) program office. The primary objective of the assessment was to evaluate the effectiveness of SRNS's activities to manage and maintain an appropriate CONOPS program at H-Canyon. The assessment also evaluated the effectiveness of the Federal oversight provided by DOE-SR relating to CONOPS.
