Material Control and Accountability
The DOE Material Control
and Accountability (MC&A) program consists of three key elements; basic requirements (e.g., a site specific
MC&A plan), material accounting (and measurements), and material controls
(physical and procedural). Working together, these elements provide an information
and control system that deters, detects and assists in the prevention of
unauthorized use of nuclear material or its removal from its authorized
location.
The following are the principal baseline documents used by the inspectors:
- Material Control and Accountability Inspectors Guide
- DOE N 441.1, Radiological Protection
for DOE Activities
- DOE O 452.4, Security and Control of
Nuclear Explosives and Nuclear Weapons
- DOE P 470.1, Integrated Safeguards and
Security Management (ISSM) Policy
- DOE O 470.1, Chg 1, Safeguards and Security Program
- DOE O 470.2B, Independent Oversight and Performance Assurance Program
- DOE O 474.1A, Control and Accountability
of Nuclear Materials
- DOE M 474.1-1A, Manual for the Control and
Accountability of Nuclear Materials
- DOE M 474.1-2, Chg 2, Nuclear Material
Management and Safeguards System Report and Data Submission
- DOE M 5632.1C-1, Chg 1, Manual for
Protection and Control of Safeguards and Security Interests
- DOE O 5660.1B, Management of Nuclear Materials
