Here is a useful reference:

The following chain of e-mails  is copied from the above link.  It is no wonder that I have not been provided with information regarding the Sandia work that I have requested.

What is our decision on sharing the BWR zirc fire data with GE and NEI.
They are classified as OUO documents.

Gary,
Attached are Mhe three relevant papers that were published in the ANS Transactions – Winter Meeting 2006 I Volume 95.
Your will note that the two papers based on the Sandia testing were heavily redacted at the instruction of the NRC. The test information is generally considered Official Use Only. We will need to receive permission from the NRC to release more substantial reports.

Spent Fuel Experiments
Sam, Eric, and Randy,
Earl Saito of GE-Hitachi has contacted me regarding some information on your Spent Fuel experiments, in particular, the BWR experiments. GE, as you can imagine, is trying to gather information on spent fuel pool issues for BWRs.
Can you please send the publically released papers you have written to “prime the pump”? I am sure there is material that you cannot share at this time, but I am looking at our NDA agreements to determine what latitude we may have, if any.
