RE: Placement of cautions in procedures
US Department of Energy Standard 1029-92, "Writer's Guide for Technical
Procedures" answers all of the questions that anyone could ask about writing
procedures. I keep the Acrobat version of the standard on my computer
desktop for easy reference.

For the Adobe Acrobat version of the standard, go to:

Thanks, Hugh. I've been looking for that standard for several months. I didn't have the standard number, unfortunately, and---until their recent site redesign---their home page didn't have a direct link to their standards collection, a site map or a good search function. Even the DOE offices I called had no idea where to find the standard on their web site, and it wasn't listed in their printed catalog under 'Guides' or 'Procedures'.
Note: The DOE web site has a whole bunch of useful looking standards, including some on training design and information management. When I have time, I'm gonna poke around in there.
