3.9 Contamination Files. A generic term used in this document to encompass the various types and forms of contamination information for a facility. Contamination files may contain or reference operational records pertinent to process contamination, facility safety plans， environmental and safety audit documents, standard operating procedures，spill reports, notes, drawings, key plans and any other information that would locate and identify contamination in the faility.
3.10 Contamination Summary. A concise document outlining the current condition of a contaminated facility.
3.11 Deactivation. The process of placing a facility in a stable and known condition – including the removal of hazardous and radioactive materials to ensure adequate protection of the worker, public health and safety, and the environment 一thereby limiting the long-term cost of surveillance and maintenance. Actions include the removal of fuel, draining and/or de- energizing non-essential systems, removal of stored radioactive and hazardous material, and related actions. Deactivation does not include all decontamination necessary for the dismantlement and demolition phase of decommissioning, e.g.,. removal of contamination remaining in the fixed structures and equipment after deactivation. Deactivation does not refer to hazardous materials that are rendered inactive by the addition of another material.
3.12 Decommissioning. A general term for a formal process to remove the laboratory or its components from an active status or service. Decommissioning takes place after deactivation or inactivation and includes validation and certification of decontam-ination and/or dismantlement and considers any physical hazards such as modified structural components (e.g， electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems) that may pose a hazard for the next user. These actions are taken at the endpoint of any particular process or action as determined by the risk assessment. The ultimate goal of decommissioning is unrestricted release or safe use of the facility.
3.13 Decommissioning Plan. A work plan for a specific facility， laboratory， portion thereof or equipment within that details the roles, responsibilities, materials and sequence of events needed to achieve specific acceptance criteria resulting in an unrestricted release of the property, area or equipment. A decommissioning plan may include any or all of the following: site history, site contacts/personnel, risk assess- ments, sampling and analytical plans (SAP), field sampling plans (FSP)， quality assur- ance project plans (QAPP)，remediation plans，the site environmental health and safety plan (HASP)， chemical inventories, planned equipment and material disposition, and contractor work orders.
3.14 Decommissioning Report. The decommissioning report details all of the outcomes outlined in the decommissioning plan and is typically recommended to be permanently retained by the project stake- holders as documentation.
3.15 Decontamination. Removal of process or construction contamination from facilities, equipment or soils by washing， heating, chemical or electrochemical action, mechan- ical cleaning ( or other techniques. The removal or reduction of residual biological, radioactive ; and hazardous materials by mechanical, chemical or other techniques to achieve a stated objective or end condition (acceptable level).
3.17 Disinfectant. A chemical agent or compound that destroys pathogenic micro- organisms (not spores). The term is generally used for an agent or compound that destroys organisms on inanimate objects and surfaces.
3.18 Documentation. The formal process of planning and recording decisions made by the user or other relevant stakeholders of a decommissioning project.
3.19 Endpoint. The detailed specification of conditions to be achieved for a facility’s spaces, systems and major equipment. A point marking the completion or stage(s) of the decommissioning process based on the specific characterization and risk assess- ment.
3.20 Etiologic Agent. A viable micro- organism or its toxin that causes or may cause human disease, and includes those agents listed in Title 42 CFR 72.3 of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services regulations，and any material of biological origin that poses a degree of hazard similar to those organisms.ANSI ASSE Z9.11-2016 pdf download
