Conceptual Safety Design Report Assessment for the Savannah River Plutonium Processing Facility

This assessment evaluated the conceptual safety design report (CSDR) and safety review letter for the Savannah River Plutonium Processing Facility (SRPPF) to be constructed at the Savannah River Site. The SRPPF is intended to be capable of providing war reserve plutonium pits for the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile to meet pit production requirements as defined by the National Nuclear Security Administration.
