A Literature Guide to Planning and Implementing the
Risk-based End State Program

SELECTED REFERENCES

16 key articles were selected from the larger set of articles because of their accessibility to a general audience, relevance to DOE risk issues and their relevance to the key concept areas.

This list of articles (See below and available in full text as part of CRESP course) is meant only as a starting point and should be critiqued, updated and shaped to meet the informational needs of the department and its stakeholders. The abstracts of several other directly relevant articles have also been provided in the literature guide. A complete listing of the articles selected through this process is also available
