Plutonium Roadmap Guides 1995 Division Review

For some time we have been preparing for NMT Division's second Science and Technology Assessment scheduled for November 13-15, 1995. We issued the NMT Division Review Plan (Table 3) in March. The theme this year is "The Plutonium Roadmap," which describes all current and future scientific and technological advances addressing the plutonium problem, and includes many of the elements depicted in the "fishbone" diagram (Fig. 5). Project personnel will report on several key projects under this theme, and other division-wide accomplishments will be presented in poster papers. The organizational self-assessment was issued in mid-June.

The NMT External Review Committee (ERC) has a new member, Dr. Robert Uhrig. Dr. Uhrig holds a joint appointment as Distinguished Professor of Engineering in the Nuclear Engineering Department at the University of Tennessee, and as Distinguished Scientist at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. During the past few months all the ERC members have completed their scheduled first visits and discussions for this year's review.
