Implementing Automation of Foreign Obligations Tracking at SRS

Abstract

Obligated Nuclear Material Principles • Stay with the originating item if at all practical. • Additional principles apply to bulk processes for pool accounting. • Fungibility: Individual units are indistinguishable therefore equal units are interchangeable. • Equivalence: Material of the same quality and same quantity • Isotopic composition • Physical and chemical form • State: fresh, irradiated, waste • Proportionality: If material is mixed and is processed, a proportion of the resultant material will be obligated in the same proportion as the originating material.
