Cover has minor wear and soiling. The Department of Energy Organization Act of 1977 created perhaps the most diverse agency in the Federal Government. The new department brought together not only most of the government`s energy programs but also defense responsibilities that included the design, construction, and testing of nuclear weapons. The Department of Energy incorporated a score of organizational entities from a dozen departments and agencies. The Department of Energy sought--and continues to seek--to be one of the Nation`s premier science and technology organizations. The Department of Energy, 1977--1994, is a summary history of the origins, goals, and achievements of the Department and selected major programs. The study details how the Department was born of the energy crisis of the early and mid-1970s. With the end of the Cold War, the Department of Energy further transformed itself, moving to partial dismantlement of the nuclear weapons complex and to an increased emphasis on technology transfer efforts. The United States Department of Energy (DOE) is a Cabinet-level department of the United States Government concerned with the United States' policies regarding energy and safety in handling nuclear material. Its responsibilities include the nation's nuclear weapons program, nuclear reactor production for the United States Navy, energy-related research, radioactive waste disposal, and domestic energy production. DOE sponsors more research in the physical sciences than any other U.S. federal agency, the majority of which is conducted through its system of National Laboratories. The 1973 oil crisis called attention to the need to consolidate energy policy. On August 4, 1977, President Jimmy Carter signed into law The Department of Energy Organization Act of 1977 (Pub. L. 95-91, 91 Stat. 565, enacted August 4, 1977), which created the Department of Energy. The new agency, which began operations on October 1, 1977, consolidated the Federal Energy Administration, the Energy Research and Development Administration, the Federal Power Commission, and programs of various other agencies.

Wraps. Condición: good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Quarto, 95, wraps, illus., maps, endnotes, ink scribble on front cover, some wear to covers. This book was written in conjunction with the 50th anniversary commemoration of the Nevada Test Site, and represents a unique partnership between the U.S. Department of Energy's Nevada Operations Office (which provided the initial impetus for the project), the Office of Defense Programs of the Department's National Nuclear Security Administration (which provided funding for printing the history), and the History Division of the Department's Executive Secretariat (which researched and wrote the history). Gosling was a former Chief Historian for the Department of Energy and Fehner succeeded him into that position. The contents include a description and early history of the Nevada Test Site, the birth of the nuclear age, the search for a Continental Test Site, The Ranger Series, and the Legacy of the Nevada Test Site. The Nevada National Security Site, previously the Nevada Test Site (NTS), is a United States Department of Energy reservation located in southeastern Nye County, Nevada, about 65 miles northwest of the city of Las Vegas. Formerly known as the Nevada Proving Grounds, the site was established on 11 January 1951 for the testing of nuclear devices, covering approximately 1,360 square miles of desert and mountainous terrain. Nuclear weapons testing at the Nevada Test Site began with a 1-kiloton-of-TNT (4.2 TJ) bomb dropped on Frenchman Flat on 27 January 1951. During the 1950s, the mushroom clouds from the 100 atmospheric tests could be seen for almost 100 mi. St. George, Utah, received the brunt of the fallout of above-ground nuclear testing in the Yucca Flats/Nevada Test Site. Winds routinely carried the fallout of these tests directly through St. George and southern Utah. The vast majority-828 of the 928 total nuclear tests-were underground. The Nevada Test Site contains 28 areas, 1,100 buildings, 400 miles of paved roads, 300 miles of unpaved roads, ten heliports, and two airstrips. The Nevada Test Site was established as a 680-square-mile area by President Harry S. Truman on December 18, 1950, within the Nellis Air Force Gunnery and Bombing Range. The Nevada Test Site was the primary testing location of American nuclear devices from 1951 to 1992; 928 announced nuclear tests occurred there. Of those, 828 were underground. (Sixty-two of the underground tests included multiple, simultaneous nuclear detonations, adding 93 detonations and bringing the total number of NTS nuclear detonations to 1,021, of which 921 were underground.) The site is covered with subsidence craters from the testing. The NTS was the United States' primary location for tests in the 500-to-1,000 kt (2,100-to-4,200 TJ) range. 126 tests were conducted elsewhere, including most larger tests. Many of these occurred at the Pacific Proving Grounds in the Marshall Islands. . The last atmospheric test detonation at the Nevada Test Site was "Little Feller I" of Operation Sunbeam, on 17 July 1962. Although the United States did not ratify the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, it honors the articles of the treaty, and underground testing of weapons ended as of 23 September 1992. Subcritical tests not involving a critical mass continue. One notable test shot was the "Sedan" shot of Operation Storax on 6 July 1962, a 104-kiloton-of-TNT (440 TJ) shot for Operation Plowshare, which sought to prove that nuclear weapons could be used for peaceful means in creating bays or canals. It created a crater 1,280 feet wide and 320 feet deep that can still be seen today. While there are no longer any explosive tests of nuclear weapons at the site, there is still subcritical testing, used to determine the viability of the United States' aging nuclear arsenal. Additionally, the site is the location of the Area 5 Radioactive Waste Management Complex, which sorts and stores low-level radioactive waste that is not transuranic and has a half life not longer than 20 years.

Wraps. Condición: As new, in shrinkwrap. Presumed First Edition, First printing. vii, [1], 244 pages. Maps. Illustrations. Acronyms and Abbreviations. Endnotes. This work was written in conjunction with the opening of the Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada. This was a joint project of the Department of Energy Office of History and Heritage Resources and the National Nuclear Security Administration. Since its establishment in 1957, the Office of History and Heritage Resources (OHHR) has consistently sought to maintain a level of excellence in its publications that meets all scholarly standards and yet is accessible to the general public. At the same time, OHHR has partnered with DOE program offices and field sites to provide historical products that are useful and fill specific departmental needs. In this effort, OHHR has produced a broad range of prize-winning monographs, shorter histories, articles, chronologies, and other publications. Volume II, Underground Nuclear Weapons Testing, 1957-1992 was projected but does not appear to have been completed. This is a comprehensive history of an important chapter in the history of the Cold War, American atmospheric atomic tests at the Nevada Test Site and elsewhere, providing unique insight into the successes, failures, and controversies of the program.

From 1951 through 1958, the United States conducted 120 tests at the Nevada Test Site. These tests directly contributed to the creation and manufacture of bigger, smaller, better, and safer nuclear weapons that greatly enhanced the capabilities of the nation's security forces and helped deter an all-out hot war.
