The High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) has three neutron startup sources (NSs) in the reactor core, each of which consists of $$^{252}$$Cf with 3.7GBq The NSs are exchanged at the interval of approximately 7 years. The NS holders including NSs are transported from the dealer's hot cell to the reactor facility of HTTR using a transportation container. The loading work of NS holders to the Control Rod guide blocks is subsequently carried out in the fuel handling machine maintenance pit of HTTR. Following technical issues were extracted from the experiences in the past two exchange works of NSs to develop a safety handling procedure; (1) The reduction and prevention of radiation exposure of workers. (2) The exclusion of falling of NS holder. Then, a new transportation container special to the NSs of HTTR was developed to solve the technical issues while keeping the cost as low as that for overhaul of conventional container and satisfying the regulation of A type transportation package.

In High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR), three neutron holders containing $$^{252}$$Cf with 3.7GBq for each are loaded in the graphite blocks and inserted into the reactor core as a neutron startup source (NS) which is changed at the interval of approximately 7 years. These neutron holders containing the neutron sources are transported from the dealer's hot cell to HTTR using the transportation container. The holders loading to the graphite block are carried out in the fuel handling machine maintenance pit of HTTR. Technical issues were recognized for the transportation container in the past two exchange works for the safety handling work of NS holder. On the other hand, it was required that an overhaul of the conventional transportation container or development of a new transportation container because the conventional transportation container was manufactured about twenty years ago. Therefore, the development of a new transportation container for NSs, which can solve these technical issues with low cost, was carried out.

As the result, it was confirmed that the NS handling work was improved by new transportation container.
