1.0 BACKGROUND
Under the aegis of the U.S. initiative for nuclear weapons safety. security, and dismantlement known as the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program. the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) are engaged in establishing bilateral technical assistance programs with Russia in the nuclear material safeguards areas of material' control and accounting (MC&A) and physical protection. The objective of U.S. assistance is.to help Russia improve its capabilities to effectively safeguard nuclear ,
material. The assistance will be carried out under a bilateral agreement for j cooperation. and is supported by funds authorized by Congress in the Soviet i Nuclear Threat Reduction Act of 1991 (Nunn-Lugar) and successor legislation such as the Freedom Support Act of 1992.
Regulatory p ograms for safeguarding nuclear material in the FSU are virtually non existent. The Russian regulatory agency GOSATOMNADZOR (GAN) established as an independent authority for overseeing Russian nuclear safety and safeguards programs, has acknowledged serious deficiencies in staffing and technical resources, and has expressed strong interest in U.S. assistance. j Effective MC&A and physical protection are critical to safeguarding strategic l nuclear materials in support of nonproliferation goals. In the interest of I nonproliferation, improvements are needed in national regulatory oversight to ensure nuclear materials in Russia are effectively protected.
The.U.S. and Russia signed an Agreement in September 1993 for joint cooperation in MC&A and physical protection 'using Nunn-Lugar funds under the CTR program. A program plan has been developed that contains proposed projects to be carried out.
