This book is the Proceedings of the International Conference on
Trans portation, Storage, and Disposal of Hazardous Materials,
which was held at the International Institute for Applied Systems
Analysis (IIASA), 1-5 July 1985. The Conference brought together
representatives of academia, business, and government from East and
West to discuss the nature of current problems in the area of
hazardous materials. An important objective of the Conference was
to suggest steps that could be undertaken by industrial firms, the
insurance industry, and govern ment agencies to improve the safety
and efficiency with which hazar dous materials are produced and
controlled in industrialized societies. Conference sponsors were
IIASA, the Geneva Association, and the Center for Risk and Decision
Processes of the University of Pennsyl vania. Additional financial
support was received from the US Environ mental Protection Agency,
the Monsanto Corporation, the Center for Organizational Innovation
at the University of Pennsylvania, and the Canadian IIASA
Committee. We are grateful to all of these institutions for their
generous support of this Conference. Within IIASA, a long history
of research in risk activities is evi dent. This owes much to the
vision of IIASA's founding Director, Howard Raiffa, and program
leaders who have promoted risk research at IIASA. The present
Conference continued this tradition with the strong support of
IIASA's current Director, Thomas H. Lee, and Deputy Director,
Vitali Kaftanov."
