Subtitled: FY2001 Report to Congress of the Panel to Assess the Reliability, Safety, and Security of the United States Nuclear Stockpile. This report focussed on a narrow question: is there a technical issu…e that necessitates a return to nuclear testing? In order to meet the growing technical challenges of stockpile stewardship, the Panel recommended that Presidential guidance be revised to require a balanced and complete assessment of the stockpile, the nuclear weapons complex that supports it, and the alternative options available for sustaining confidence. The Panel urges Congress to continue its strong focus and leadership, particularly in the following four areas: First, there is significant potential to strengthen stockpile surveillance, assessments, and certification. These processes are the day-to-day foundation for understanding and investigating the issues associated with stockpile safety and reliability, and they should be as rigorous and probing as the responsible stockpile stewards know how to make them. Congress should encourage the proposed revisions to these processes, which are needed to obtain a balanced and complete assessment of stewardship issues and options. Second, we need to articulate and fund a balanced, forward-looking weapons program that meets the requirements for weapons refurbishments, explores advanced concepts, and maintains leading-edge capabilities in weapons-relevant science and technology. A renewed and sharpened focus on deliverable products will drive the need to restore the weapons complex, to train a new generation of stockpile stewards, and to address long-standing management deficiencies. Third, test readiness, the time required to conduct a test after a decision to test is made, must be addressed much more realistically. This is not because a need to test is imminent, but because prudence requires that every President have a realistic option to test, in a timely manner, should technical or political events dictate a requirement. Fourth, the coming year will be critical for determining whether the NNSA can provide the strong leadership Congress sought by establishing this organization in 1999. The Secretary of Energy has limited the oversight of NNSA by DOE's environmental, safety, and health organization. However, he should also be urged to do still more to remove staff activities in DOE headquarters that are redundant to functions in NNSA. Such redundant activities inevitably hamper the efficient pursuit of NNSA's mission. NNSA must lead in transforming the weapons program by creating a resource plan that explains how it will address the challenges of stockpile stewardship, and in establishing the management capable of executing the plan. If NNSA is unable to accomplish such tasks within the current year, Congress should take positive action to further strengthen the mandate and support needed to adequately manage the national nuclear weapons program.

Wraps. Condición: Good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Various paginations (approximately 110 pages). Illustrations (figures and Tables, some with color). Biographical Information on Report Authors. Abbreviations. Ink marks on front cover and page vi. Page 4-3/4-4 creased. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches…. The team was tasked to perform an independent business case analysis of storage consolidation alternatives for NNSA's Pantex plant. Further, the alternatives considered utilizing interim storage at the Savannah River Site,metering the flow of weapons from the Department of Defense to the Department of Energy, and declaring more pits as excess to expedite closure of Zone 4. The primary mission of the Pantex Plant is the assembly, disassembly, testing, and evaluation of nuclear weapons in support of the NNSA stockpile stewardship program. Pantex also performs research and development in conventional high explosives and serves as an interim storage site for plutonium pits removed from dismantled weapons. The Pantex Plant is the primary United States nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility that aims to maintain the safety, security and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile. The facility is located on a 16,000 acre site 17 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas. The plant is managed and operated for the United States Department of Energy by Consolidated Nuclear Security. Consolidated Nuclear Security, LLC (CNS) is composed of member companies Bechtel National, Inc., Leidos, Inc., Orbital ATK, Inc, and SOC LLC, with Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc. as a teaming subcontractor. CNS also operates the Y-12 National Security Complex. The plant and its grounds are strictly controlled and off-limits to all civilians, and the airspace above and around the plant is prohibited to civilian air traffic by the FAA as Prohibited Area P-47.

Wraps. Condición: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Various paginations (approximately 130 pages). Illustrations (figures and Tables, some with color). Biographical Information on Report Authors. Abbreviations. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. The team was tasked to perform an independent busines…s case analysis of weapons surveillance and evaluation facility alternatives for NNSA's Pantex plant. The team developed quantitative and qualitative data for a set of alternatives ranging from not building a weapons surveillance and evaluation facility to building a full capacity-sized facility. Surveillance is the process of inspecting a weapon through various tests of the weapon as a whole, the weapon's components, and the weapon's materials to determine whether they are meeting performance expectations, through dismantling the weapon or through the use of diagnostic tools. The Pantex Plant is the primary United States nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility that aims to maintain the safety, security and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile. The facility is located on a 16,000 acre site 17 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas. The plant is managed and operated for the United States Department of Energy by Consolidated Nuclear Security.
