Comments rural areas or on more secure waterways. Security force will always be available The number of police stations nearby the route will be proportional to the population density and hence the population desnity metric will accounted for this metric. Minimum amount of radwaste expected and likely same for all routes Minimum amount of non- radwaste expected and likely same for all routes
Availability of security escort for route
No
Number of Police Stations Nearby Route
No
Quantity of radiological waste produced from normal operations Quantity of non-radiological waste produced from normal operations

5.3.2 Evaluation of Individual Metrics With the tangible metrics established in Section 5.3.1, a pairwise comparison between these metrics was performed by each member of the de-inventory team to establish a relative weighting of the metrics and a range for the metric weight over which a sensitivity analyses was performed (Step 6). In a pairwise comparison, each metric is evaluated for its favorability against the other metrics. This exercise was performed by each member of the de-inventory team to ensure a reasonable cross-section of preference samples was taken from the collective team, which allowed for an average metric weighting to be established and a prioritized list of metrics identified. An example of the pairwise comparison performed by an individual is shown in Figure 5-2. In this example, the “Infrastructure Improvement Costs” metric is pairwise compared against the other metrics on a favorability scale. For example, the “Infrastructure Improvement Costs” metric is rated mildly favorable against the “Labor and Permitting Costs,” but is rated more unfavorable against “Security/Vulnerability of Route.” These ratings are interpreted to mean that there is a slight benefit seen to reducing the monies spent on improving the infrastructure on the route at the expense of increasing the costs spent on labor and permitting (i.e., if there are some additional labor or permitting costs that can be performed which reduce the costs of improving infrastructure for a route, then this evaluator would slightly favor performing these activities). However, if an infrastructure improvement could be performed that improves the security/vulnerability of the route (e.g., adding security fences or walls), then this will be a more favored/encouraged outcome.
