A joint ERDA-NRC task force was created to develop a proposed action plan for improving the control and protection of nuclear materials at NRC licensed fuel cycle facilities possessing significant amounts of highly enriched uranium and plutonium. This report briefly summarizes the task force findings and proposed plan of action. The task force addressed the current status and future direction of physical security safeguards at NRC licensed fuel cycle facilities now in possession of significant amounts of strategic special nuclear materials (SSNM). The focus of the task force was on near-term, site specific actions that would provide confident control and protection against thefts or diversions of SSNM. (LK)
