By aiming to ensure that nuclear materials and facilities do not contribute to nuclear proliferation, the Treaty creates the necessary environment for technological transfer and cooperation.

Nuclear technologies and techniques are applied in Poland in various fields (health care, industry, environmental protection, agriculture).

Detection and verification technologies

Verification Technology Information Centre

Nuclear technologies for detection and for treaty verification.

The IAEA safeguards and verification systems, together with technical assistance programmes particularly in the area of health, agriculture, environment and industry, should be strengthened.

We have strengthened the verification system through enhanced use of satellite imagery, environmental sampling and a variety of new technologies.

Ensuring effective national nuclear security capability, including technical capacity for the detection of illicit trafficking of nuclear and radioactive materials and relevant equipment and technology.

Director, Center for Arms Control and Verification Technology

The searchable EST directory includes the IETC s survey on EST information systems, a compilation of about 130 institutions throughout the world that are involved with ESTs and an overview of eco friendly technologies in IETC s field of activity.Table 1.

Nuclear techniques are also increasingly being used in environmental applications.

Developing space technologies for environmental protection.

(i) Best available techniques and best environmental practices

quot The General Conference requests the Director General to invite experts from the Middle East and other areas to a technical workshop on safeguards, verification technologies, and related experience.

Thirdly, the fuel cycle of the Islamic Republic of Iran is not technically different from that of other countries that have peaceful nuclear technology.

The identified techniques could be considered when setting up a verification process.

Review PTS staff plan for verification for 1998

It is important to maintain a balance in the activities of the Agency regarding verification on the one hand and promotion of peaceful applications of nuclear energy, including technical assistance on the other.

Certification is not granted until the facility has been inspected by the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator (OGTR).

The objective is to review policy instruments for stimulating the diffusion of ESTs and promoting environmentally sound technological development.

The conceptual separation between fuel cycle technology for military purposes and the technology for civilian purposes needs to be reviewed.

(c) To discuss best available techniques and best environmental practices

Review PTS staff plan for verification for 1998

He said many countries identified soft technologies, such as geographic information systems and technologies for measurement, monitoring, and verification such as tide gauges, rather than hard technologies for adaptation.

A number of the supporting verification technologies that might be deployed by inspectors entering facilities as part of a hypothetical future verification regime have been examined for their continuing value and limitations as the state of the art evolves.

External technical expert panel review of the ongoing monitoring and verification plan (biological provisions)

There was no incompatibility between tightening controls over the nuclear fuel cycle and expanding the use of peaceful nuclear technology.

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has an ongoing initiative identifying successful land use practices, using indigenous GE.97 62237 and new technologies.

If the global community accepted that the benefits of peaceful nuclear technology were essential to the world's health, environment and social and economic development, it must ensure that a framework was in place that would effectively prevent the military applications of nuclear technology from leading to self destruction.

Civilian use of nuclear energy and technology must become fully resistant to proliferation, with better mechanisms for controlling the nuclear fuel cycle.

Environmental monitoring techniques

So that the impact of each verification technique can be characterized in terms of its contribution to an arms control verification scheme, we have defined two types of verification function, which any of these techniques may fulfil. These are Identifier (used to identify the item or process) and Corroborator (providing supporting evidence).

Singapore will continue to support the work of the Director General and the Agency in all its three pillars of promoting nuclear safety and security, peaceful applications of nuclear science and technology, and nuclear verification and safeguards.

A. Nuclear technology This section was authored by Dr. Tor Larsson, Coordinator for Nuclear Weapons Related Research, National Defence Research Establishment, Stockholm.

Act No. 15,809 of 21 April 1986 established the National Office of Nuclear Technology (now called the National Office of Nuclear Energy and Technology), whose tasks are to plan, coordinate and conduct activities to promote nuclear technology and regulations, inspections, licensing, authorizations and control of nuclear technology applications and the use of ionizing radiation.

At the same time, there was a desire to preserve the inherent right to use nuclear technology, including energy, for peaceful purposes.

We can make them we have that technology.

PROGRAMME OF WORK ON VERIFICATION WORKING GROUP B AND PROVISIONAL TECHNICAL SECRETARIAT (PTS)

The VX verification experience makes it clear that only a sophisticated verification system comprising various verification tools and techniques is capable of uncovering evidence of past undeclared activities.

Investigation techniques

Review of the ongoing monitoring and verification plan (missile provisions) by the panel of external technical experts

At the same time, we want to preserve the inherent right to the peaceful uses of nuclear technology, including energy.

We still strongly believe that verification is technically feasible and politically desirable.

Preliminary work is under way, in collaboration with academic institutions, on a number of these potential new verification technologies, some of which are discussed below.
