Abstract |
The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has sites in Morgantown, West Virginia; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Albany, Oregon; and Fairbanks, Alaska (AEO). In total, these sites include 81 buildings and 14 major research facilities on nearly 200 acres. More than 1,100 employees work at NETLs five sites; roughly half are federal employees and half are site support contractors. Four principal sites and one satellite office, AEO, constitute NETL. Each office is located in a different state, is subject to different state and local laws, and focuses on different activities. Among the most significant changes to NETL in 2005 was the realignment and incorporation of the Albany Research Center (ARC) into the NETL family as NETL-Albany. This event took place in November 2005. NETL-Albany specializes in life cycle research and investigates new materials to solve the energy system challenges of today and tomorrow. At about the same time as the realignment, NETL-Albany was certified to the ISO 14001:1996 standard. ARC had been ready to be assessed against the more current 2004 standard at the time of the 14001 certification, but was informed that the infrastructure for auditing against the more current standard was not yet fully in place. NETL-Pittsburgh and NETL-Morgantown have implemented an EMS based on the ISO 14001 standard and were independently certified in 2005 to be in full compliance with the ISO 14001 standard. As mentioned, NETL-Albany received certification in November 2005 based on their Albany Management System (AMS). NETL-Pittsburgh and NETLMorgantown received certification in August 2003 and maintained that certification throughout 2004 and 2005. |
