- Intended Inspection Focus Areas
- Newly Completed Construction or Renovations including:
- Examples: Book Modules 3 and 4, Fort Meade; Botanic Gardens Admin Facility; Any additional facilities that are completed and occupied during the 112th Congress.
- Higher Risk Areas and Areas of Special Interest see examples on Attachment A
- We will be discussing how this looks specifically for each facility during opening conferences.
- Areas of Special Interest are listed on Att. A, page 2. These are areas that are highly visible, may have a vulnerable population or have special interest for our stakeholders.
- Examples include: Day Care Centers, Member Offices, Page Dorms and Schools
- Repeat RAC 1 and RAC 2 Findings
- All areas with repeat RAC 1 and RAC 2 findings will be inspected
- Fire and Life Issues Continue to be a Priority
- What Does this Mean to You?
- Strategically Focused Inspection Process
- All facilities inspected, we are concentrating on higher risk areas within facilities.
- The inspection process will be the same as in the past with the addition of seeing how employees are working within those areas.
- Self-Inspection Process Implemented
- We are requesting that Employing Offices self-inspect (in place of pre inspections) the lower risk spaces that we will not be entering.
- Examples of these areas: hallways, office and administrative spaces
- We will be requesting lists of areas inspected, certification of inspections and summary data.
- We plan to conduct spot checks of areas showing anomalies during inspections of facilities. Early in the Congress we may not have the self inspection information and may need to re-visit facilities later in the Congress. We will do our best to minimize multiple visits.
