The Risk Management Description provides the framework to provide the University of
California National Laboratory (UCNL) Management, Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory (LBNL) Senior Management, and the Department of Energy (DOE) Berkeley
Site Office (BSO) with an integrated view of the significant risks facing the Laboratory
and to help assure that these risks are managed effectively. Laboratory risks are
documented in the Institutional Risk Register (Risk Register), the official repository of
institutional risk data.
