IAEA C&S in Iran

The International Atomic Energy Agency continues to install containment and surveillance at Iran's nuclear facilities. On 2 February 2007, there was a report about the installation of two cameras at the Uranium Conversion Facility in Esfahan. Then, on 10 February 2007, reports surfaced that all cameras had been installed at the uranium enrichment facility at Natanz.

Agency cameras are installed to monitor the movement of nuclear material and to detect any interference with containment or tampering with IAEA safeguards devices, samples and data. Consequently, the camera is installed so that its field of view covers the entire area of safeguards interest, so that the movement of safeguarded items is captured.
