A national measurement and standards program is described which is coordinated essentially by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the National Bureau of Standards, and the Energy Research and Development Administration. Efforts and progress are outlined as related to assuring that timely, accurate measurements at reasonable cost are available to the nuclear community. The results of this combined effort show that programs are underway to keep abreast of the present measurement needs for nuclear materials safeguards, and that projected work is consistent with a growing U. S. nuclear industry.
