OSTI ID:5689923
The following procedures are included: nondestructive determination of plutonium in containers of 4 litres or less or fabrication waste by neutron-coincidence counting; nondestructive determination of plutonium in containers of 1 liter or less in fabrication scrap by neutron-coincidence counting; nondestructive determination or plutonium in 55- and 30-gallon drums of combustible fabrication wastes by neutron-coincidence counting; nondestructive analysis of plutonium in fabrication scrap and waste in containers of 20 litres or less by segmented passive gamma-ray scanning. Guidelines regarding the assay of special nuclear material (i.e., choice of method, analysis prerequisites, interference, etc.) are presented in the US Atomic Energy Commission Regulatory Guide.
