• State Hazardous Materials Transportation - Registration and Permitting: At least 27 states and the District of Columbia, plus one federally recognized tribe—the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin—have laws addressing a variety of issues related to the shipment of radioactive materials, including permitting, registration and fee structures. 

• State Permits and Fees for the Transportation of Radioactive Materials: This site shows state and tribal permitting, licensing and registration requirements for hazardous materials, hazardous waste, and radioactive materials transporters. 

• Stakeholder Tool for Assessing Radioactive Transport (START): START is a web-based geographic information system (GIS) tool that enables users to visualize more than 50 data layers relevant to radioactive materials transportation planning, including modal options, transportation infrastructure conditions, and emergency response assets. The tool also allows evaluation of potential transportation routes by highway, rail, waterway, or multiple modes and incorporation of geo-tagged imagery from nuclear power plant site infrastructure evaluations. START is currently for official use only and therefore only available for government use.
