The multigroup covariance processing code NJOY/ERRORR module has been used to process 15 major nuclides including actinides, coolant and structural materials common to most LMFBR design studies. Covariance files contained in ENDF/B-V.2 were processed into a 21-group covariance library. These covariance data will be used in estimating uncertainties of various performance and safety parameters of advanced liquid metal reactors currently being investigated at Argonne National Laboratory in order to establish the confidence level of our calculations.
