A NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on nuclear materials safety management was held in Amarillo, Texas, in March, 1997. The Workshop focused on safety practices in various facets of the nuclear fuel cycle. Particular emphasis was given to the handling, treatment, storage and transportation of plutonium resulting from the disposition of fissile weapons materials. From the Workshop emerged a number of ideas for collaboration between the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Ministry of the Russian Federation for Atomic Energy (Minatom) for enhancing safe management of materials in the nuclear fuel cycle. |
