Abstract

A tamper-resistant containment package is described, including a container; a cover configured to engage with the container so that the container and cover form an enclosed volume; and at least one tamper-resistant mechanical fastener that is cooperative with the cover and container to render the containment package tamper-resistant when the container and cover are engaged in a sealed state isolating the enclosed volume from an ambient environment surrounding the containment package. Such containment package is usefully employed for storage and transport of chemical reagents that pose a health, safety, and/or environmental risk if released to an exterior environment of the containment package.
