Routing and emergency-response-team siting for high-level radioactive waste shipments

Route choice and emergency response team siting are both important facets of any high-level radioactive waste shipment campaign. These two sets of decisions are clearly related, and both involve multiple objectives. This paper describes a methodology for making these decisions jointly, in a logical and sequential fashion, and illustrates the technique using preliminary estimates of shipments to be made to the Waste Isolation Pilot Project facility.
