    The  Department of  Energy  of  the  United  States  of
    America  (&DOE8) and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of
    the Republic of Finland (&MFA8), hereinafter referred to as
    the &Participants8;

    security issues, including threats posed by vulnerable,
    high-risk nuclear and other radioactive materials.
