Abstract :
The application of nondestructive assay (NDA) instrumentation during nuclear material safeguards inspections by the USAEC Richland Operations Office (Hanford) is described. The problems and constraints of NDA instrument use are discussed from an inspector´s viewpoint. New and modified NDA instrumentation is suggested which would provide improved measurement verification during safeguards inspections.
