EM Stakeholders, Today Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz directed the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Environmental Management (EM) and DOE's National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) to develop a plan for the transition of legacy environmental cleanup work at the Department's Los Alamos site from NNSA to EM. This change will align the focus and accountability of the cleanup with EM and enable the Los Alamos site prime contractor, Los Alamos National Security (LANS), to continue its focus on the core national security missions at the site. EM and NNSA will work together to evaluate all elements necessary for an effective transition, including federal oversight, acquisition strategies, and quality, safety and security. DOE remains committed to the safe and efficient cleanup of the Los Alamos site and will continue to inform stakeholders about what steps will be taken as the details are developed. Sincerely, Mark Whitney Acting EM Assistant Secretary Mark Whitney |
