Additional information is presented on the pressurization of the 2R vessel in the LLD-1 shipping container by expansion of the contained air and other gases under specified thermal expansion conditions. This information applies to the shipment of exp 239 PuO sub 2 . The safety analysis showed that: the pressure increase in the 2R vessel is within the capacity of the vessel; there appears to be no possible leakage of radioactivity from the 2R vessel during transport; and in over 20 years experience with the LLD-1 shipping package, no leakage has occurred.
