nuclear weapons were once manufactured there. The Russians did not do an actual inspection, but saw demonstrations of equipment that can be used to assay the amount of nuclear material inside a sealed container without having to open it, said DOE spokeswoman Beth Bramard. She said U.S. officials paid a reciprocal visit this month to the Russian counterpart factory near Tomsk. World attention has recently been focused on accounting for supplies of plutonium.

The German government has alleged black market Russian plutonium is being smuggled into their country. Sunday editions. Cochran, coauthor of the report, said it calls for the international definition of "threshold quantities" of plutonium to be lowered to 1 kilogram from 8 kilograms or 2.2 pounds from 17.6 pounds. The report also urged eightfold reductions in the threshold for urani-um, he said. The effect of those changes would be to require more precise and timely accounting, inventory, reporting and tracking procedures for quantities sufficient to make a nuclear weapon, Cochran said.

One deal broken up by German authorities reportedly involved up to 4 kilograms of weapons-grade plutonium for $250 million. Directors LOS ALAMOS, N.M.

The proposal is part of a broader effort to let experts from the United States and Russia begin inspecting each others' nuclear weapons sites.

The Pantex nuclear weapons assembly plant near Amarillo and the Rocky Flats plutonium factory near Denver would be first on the list of sites to be inspected. Deputy Secretary of Energy Bill White said Friday. Allowing similar inspections at Los Alamos, where plutonium is stored and key nuclear weapons components can be made, would be considered after that, White said in an interview with the Albuquerque He said the goal is to give both countries chances to monitor the others' stockpile of materials like plutonium and uranium that could ho Tougher Smuggling Safeguards Wanted nlli 1 WASHINGTON (AP) Safeguards on nuclear weapon materials should be toughened to stop dangerous but poorly documented quantities from falling into the wrong hands, an environmental group says. The Natural Resources Defence Council is urging far lower thresholds at which officials would report and track weapons-grade plutonium and uranium from production and reprocessing plants. ''You're beginning to see a black market develop, with a lot of smuggling going on," Thomas Cochran, senior scientist with the council, said Sunday.

The council, recognized for its atomic expertise, is making the recommendations in a report to be released Monday. Cochran said.
