FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS IN SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORTS FOR PACKAGING REVIEW

A methodology has been developed to rank Frequently Asked Questions in Safety Analysis Reports for Packaging (SARP) review. The method has been applied to 39 SARPs reviewed by Argonne National Laboratory between 1986 and 2001. General Information (Chapter 1) and Structural Evaluation (Chapter 2) are the two topical areas where more problems were found in the SARPs, followed by Quality Assurance (Chapter 9), Containment (Chapter 4), and Operating Procedures (Chapter 7). These problem areas indicate where future training resources should be directed.
