Eurochemic Assistance Program: Comments by FMPC, dated July 6, 1959, on Eurochemic Technical Documents

The nuclear safety portion of this report is inclined to ignore the factors by which safety limits can be increased. It makes no mention of the control that can be exercised by limiting the assay of the U-235 being processed in the plant. From some of the previous reports, it is apparent that this plant is not anticipating processing U-235 of assay greater than approximately 20%. At this value, many of the numbers that are presented in the tables could be increased markedly. Rough examination indicates that these values all refer to top product U-235. The general discussion is, however, excellent. The references apparently used are those unclassified references with which we are all familiar and think highly of. We would recommend the inclusion of TID-7016.
