Safeguards material control and accounting program. Quarterly report, July-September 1979. Volume 4
Activity for the quarter July-September 1979 in the Material Control Safeguards Evaluation Program, conducted for the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, is summarized. Progress was made in developing a computer-based methodology for identifying vulnerabilities in Material Control and Accounting (MC and A) systems in nuclear fuel-cycle facilities. This progress took the form of deliverables reporting work completed in the Structured Assessment Approach (SAA) methodology, and a Phase II Safeguards Vulnerability Assessment Methodology (SVAM) application to G.E. Vallecitos Nuclear Center. Moreover, SVAM was developed into a computer-based assessment strategy called Safeguards Vulnerability Analysis Program (SVAP). Work continued in assisting the NRC to develop the forthcoming MC and A upgrade rule. Other areas of activity reported on here are aggregated systems model development, adversary modeling, and components performance.
