simulation tools, and a more mature QMU methodology. The design labs (LANL and LLNL) should provide detailed justification for use of archival tests to support any proposed RRW design and investigate ways to help quantify “closeness.” Also essential for a credible RRW certification process are expanded peer review, documentation, and experimentation without nuclear testing.
