Department of Energy's safeguards and security orders and guides

Conference · · Nucl. Mater. Manage. Annu. Meet. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6328599
With the escalation of terrorism in the 1970's, the emphasis of the DOE's safeguards and security improvements has been on preventative physical protection-measures against outside adversaries. They have now progressed to a point where they are focusing on a revision of the graded safeguards approach and enhancing Material Control and Accountability. The key points addressed are the functions and responsibilities or organizational units in DOE Headquarters and at the field level, and significant features of the policy and procedures guides. Twenty-five DOE safeguards and security orders have undergone major revision.
