Abstract
AbstractA survey of the regulations ruling the transport of radioactive materials in Germany is given. Two distinct areas of legislation exist: (1) the nuclear laws which in respect to transport deal with approvals, liability, physical protection, import/export and which specify the competent authority; and (2) the Dangerous Goods legislation which regulates the transport of all dangerous goods including Class 7, Radioactive Materials. Mode-specific ordinances deal mainly with packaging requirements, labelling/marking and other controls for shipment. They are practically identical with the relevant IAEA recommendations. The paper also describes how these German regulations are applied to uranium in the form of ore concentrates of UP6.
