To accomplish this mission, a suite of tools have been developed to aid the response jurisdictions in their readiness activities.

The Modular Emergency Response Radiological Transportation Training MERRTT program is designed to take the complex topic of a radiological accident response and break it down into easily understood modules and hands-on practical exercises.

An important element of the training is detailed information on the types of packages used to transport radioactive material.
