Report To The Congress


OF THE UNITED STATES


Federal Actions Are Needed To

Improve Safety And Security Of

Nuclear Materials Transportation



Over 2 million packages of radioactive ma-
terials are shipped within the United States
each year. The Nuclear Regulatory Com-
mission estimates that shipments will more
than double to about 5.5 million annually
by 1985.

GAO evaluated the policies and practices of
the Commission and the Departments of
Energy and Transportation to see if improve-
ments were needed to assure safe, secure
nuclear shipments.

GAO recommends several changes to existing
procedures and regulations that would im-
prove safety and strengthen the security of
nuclear shipments.
