1. Transportation Information Papers
2006: Several overview papers, including: (1) Radioactive Materials Transport - Industry Experience (2) Radiation Protection Programmes - for Road Carriers, Sea Carriers and Port Handlers (3) Nuclear Fuel Cycle Transport - The IAEA Regulations and their Relevance to Severe Accidents. The transportation industry has a very good safety record for the handling of radioactive materials. The excessively long time needed for regularity approvals has a measureably negative effect on the fission sourced energy industry. The renewed interest in nuclear power is introducing rapid change in the transportation technology and regulation regimes. Compliance with regulations is further complicated by varying interpretations of the IAEA documents that specify transportation requirements. Another problem is availability of carriers. There are only a limited number of ships designed for the safe transport of radioactive material. When these ships are all busy other shipments are delayed. These days everyone is concerned about security. This is adding further constraints for the transportation of radioactive material.
