2015 - More than 15,000 former energy workers received medical screenings through DOE’s National Supplemental Screening Program since the program’s inception in 2005. The screenings are designed to identify certain occupational diseases, such as respiratory illness or cancer. DOE awarded a new $23 million, five-year continuation contract to continue management of this program.

2015 – DOE’s Radiation Exposure Monitoring System now contains data on more than 500,000 unique workers and more than 3 million radiation records.

To keep this database current, ORISE annually collects and processes more than 100,000 exposure records from 98 organizations.

2015 – CDC’s response to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa received multifaceted support from ORISE. CDC asked ORISE to identify, select and manage the training team that prepared clinicians going on deployments to Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.

2015 – ORISE experts served as lead planners for DOE’s participation in Southern Exposure 2015, a full-scale nuclear power plant accident-response exercise involving more than 1,000 participants. REAC/TS experts provided just-in-time training for medical, health physics and emergency planning personnel.

2015 – ORISE placed 9,400 participants from 1,114 colleges and universities into workforce development programs.

The events along this timeline demonstrate how DOE responded to and ORISE supported key national priorities. Accomplishments addressed needs in or strengthened opportunities for:
