To help assure the adequacy of the plutonium package certification program for the safe transport of plutonium by air, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requested the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering to conduct an independent assessment of the Commission's program. The report describes the comments, recommendations, and conclusions that resulted from the independent review. This includes an assessment of the adequacy of the NRC qualification criteria with respect to severe aircraft accidents and the Model PAT-1 package which was developed to meet the criteria.
