Radiological Survey of Downtown Washington DC for the 2009 Presidential Inauguration
"At the request of the United States Secret Service, the Aerial Measuring System (AMS) conducted an aerial radiological survey on January 10 - 12, 2009. This survey covered approximately 5 square miles over downtown Washington DC. This aerial survey was performed at the altitude of approximately 150 feet with 250 ft line spacing. Water line and test line flights were conducted to determine the non-terrestrial background contributed by aircraft, radon, and cosmic activity, and to determine the altitude-dependent air mass attenuation coefficient. The AMS twin-engine Bell 412 (tail number N412DE) helicopter based at Andrews Air Force Base was used to perform the survey. The gamma data were collected by the AMS data acquisition system, REDAR V, using an array of twelve 2' x 4' x 16' sodium iodide (NaI) detectors mounted in two external pods on the AMS helicopter. One-second gamma-energy spectral data were recorded continuously while in flight. This spectral data allow the system to distinguish between natural terrestrial background contributions and man-made radioisotope contributions. Spectral data can also be used to identify specific man-made radioactive isotopes. Data geo-locations were determined with a Real-Time Differential Global Positioning System (RDGPS) simultaneously with radiation data."

Strengthening NNSA Security Expertise: An Independent Analysis
"The National Nuclear Security Administration security expertise study team was formed at the direction of the NNSA Administrator. He stated, 'We need to take a fresh look at safeguards and security operations in NNSA in light of the post-9/11 threat environment, and we need to find a way to deal with a shortage of qualified, experienced security managers in NNSA.' The study team was directed to develop recommendations for recruiting and retaining sufficient security experts to effectively oversee safeguards and security (S&S) in the NNSA complex now and in the long term. Although security at NNSA facilities includes a mix of federal and contractor security workforces, our primary focus was on the federal workforce. We coordinated our efforts with a team chaired by Admiral Richard Mies, USN (Retired), who was tasked with recommending improvements in physical security and material control and accountability in the NNSA complex. We have formulated eight recommendations, which we believe will help ensure that competent, well-qualified personnel are available to oversee security of the nuclear weapons complex in future years."

W62 Dismantlement Fact Sheet
This fact sheet provides information about warhead dismantlement. From the text: "The W62 warhead was designed by Lawrence Livermore and Sandia National Laboratories. It was first deployed in the 1970's and retired from service on 19 Mar 2010. While the actual production numbers in the stockpile are classified, the W62 played a significant role in the U.S. nuclear deterrent. The W62 warhead was a reentry vehicle that was launched on the Air Force's Minuteman III missile, which is still in use today. The Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration began the W62 dismantlement program in 2005. NNSA's Pantex Plant outside Amarillo, TX, developed special tooling and demonstrated the ability to rapidly dismantle this system in a safe and secure manner. As a result, U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu announced on August 11, 2010 that the last W62 had been dismantled, completing the program more than one full year ahead of schedule."

Dismantlement Fact Sheet
"After a warhead is retired, NNSA [National Nuclear Security Administration] is responsible for storing it until it is ready for dismantlement, dismantling it and disposing of its components. For the last three years, NNSA has dismantled weapons at a rate faster than its own goals, reaching a 112 percent dismantlement rate in 2012. All weapons retired by 2009 will be permanently eliminated by 2022. Dismantling a nuclear weapon is a lengthy process that involves all of the facilities in NNSA's nuclear weapons enterprise. First, the design laboratories (Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California) and the engineering lab (Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Livermore, California) work with the production facilities to identify the best dismantlement process for each weapon system and mitigate any hazards that may arise before a particular weapon type is dismantled. The unique knowledge gained during the original design of the weapon is critical to ensuring that it is safely dismantled and disposed of. Once the weapon is retired and designated for dismantlement, it is first brought to the Pantex Plant in Amarillo, Texas. Pantex is responsible for assembling and disassembling nuclear warheads. During dismantlement, the high explosives are removed from special nuclear material -- highly enriched uranium (HEU) and plutonium -- and disposed of on site. Non-nuclear components are either processed on site or sent to the Savannah River Site in South Carolina (gas reservoirs) and the Kansas City Plant in Missouri (electrical and mechanical components) for final processing and ultimate disposal. The weapon's secondary system is shipped to the Y-12 National Security Complex in Oak Ridge, Tenn., for dismantlement. HEU removed from those systems is stored at NNSA's new, state-of-the-art secure storage facility at Y-12 until it is used as fuel for the U.S. Navy's submarine and aircraft carrier nuclear reactors, processed for use in lifetime extension programs (LEP) for other weapons systems or declared surplus and ultimately disposed of. Plutonium pits will be also be disassembled and eliminated. See NNSA's dismantlement flow."

GTRI's Convert Program: Minimizing the Use of Highly Enriched Uranium
"In 2004, NNSA [National Nuclear Security Administration] established the Global Threat Reduction Initiative (GTRI) in the Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation to, as quickly as possible, identify, secure, remove and/or facilitate the disposition of high risk vulnerable nuclear and radiological materials around the world that pose a threat to the United States and the international community. GTRI's mission is to reduce and protect vulnerable nuclear and radiological material located at civilian sites worldwide. GTRI achieves its mission via three initiatives which provide a comprehensive approach to preventing terrorists' access to nuclear and radiological materials. As part of its mission, GTRI's Convert Program, working domestically and internationally, implements the long-standing U.S policy to minimize and eliminate the use of highly enriched uranium (HEU) in civilian applications by working to convert research and test reactors and isotope production facilities to the use of low enriched uranium (LEU). Taken together with NNSA's work to prevent proliferation and secure nuclear material, the Convert Program demonstrates GTRI's commitment to protecting the American people and the rest of the world from nuclear and radiological terrorism."

GTRI: Removing Vulnerable Civilian Nuclear and Radiological Material
"In 2004, NNSA [National Nuclear Security Administration] established the Global Threat Reduction Initiative (GTRI) in the Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation to, as quickly as possible, identify, secure, remove and/or facilitate the disposition of high risk vulnerable nuclear and radiological materials around the world that pose a threat to the United States and the international community. GTRI achieves its mission via three initiatives - Convert, Remove and Protect - which provide a comprehensive approach to preventing terrorists' access to nuclear and radiological materials. GTRI's Remove Program works around the world to remove excess nuclear and radiological materials that could be used for a nuclear weapon or radiological dispersal device (RDD), or 'dirty bomb'. These efforts result in permanent threat reduction because they permanently eliminate material so it can no longer be used by terrorists for malevolent purposes."

Fact Sheet: Highly Enriched Uranium Transparency Program
"The U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA) Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) Transparency Program reduces nuclear risk by monitoring the conversion of 500 metric tons (MT) of Russian HEU, enough material for 20,000 nuclear weapons, into low enriched uranium (LEU). This LEU is put into peaceful use in the United States, generating nearly 10% of all U.S. electrical power. In 1993, the United States and the Russian Federation signed the HEU Purchase Agreement to provide for the safe and mutually beneficial disposition of 500 MT of surplus Russian HEU from dismantled nuclear weapons. The HEU Transparency Program's mission is to provide confidence that the nonproliferation objectives of the Agreement are fulfilled by ensuring that all LEU delivered to the United States from Russia under the Agreement was derived by downblending weapons-origin HEU. The Agreement is formally known as the 'Agreement between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the Russian Federation Concerning the Disposition of Highly Enriched Uranium Extracted from Nuclear Weapons', and is popularly known as 'Megatons to Megawatts.' The Agreement directly supports President Obama's goal of securing or eliminating weapons-usable nuclear materials worldwide. Since 1995, the Program has successfully reduced the dual risks of nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism by confirming the elimination of large stocks of excess materials from nuclear weapons. The 500 MT HEU transparently eliminated under the Agreement is substantially greater than the planned total of all other major worldwide fissile material reduction initiatives combined. The HEU Transparency Program translates nuclear arms reductions into strengthened nuclear material security, as materials from Russian nuclear weapons dismantled under bilateral arms control agreements are transparently and permanently eliminated rather than stockpiled."

Operating Efficiently / Engaging Globally: FY 2013 Annual Report
"The U.S. Department of Energy/National Nuclear Security Administration's (DOE/NNSA) Office of Nonproliferation and International Security (NIS) serves an essential role in fulfilling the nation's commitment to nonproliferation. Our analysts are uniquely situated to integrate policy expertise and technical understanding as we engage with multiple partners to help ensure nuclear materials, technology, and knowledge are used strictly for peaceful purposes within the United States and around the globe. To ensure success in meeting our obligations with external partners, in Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 we placed an emphasis on looking internally for ways we can improve our own efficiency. We conducted comprehensive reviews of our export control functions as well as our Next Generation Safeguards Initiative. The goal of each review was to determine whether NIS is properly aligned and allocating resources to address current threats and challenges. In addition, we are examining our crosscutting policy functions that benefit all aspects of our organization. We need to be certain that our policy understanding is fully incorporated into our technical and engagement activities. We also have been taking a more disciplined approach to our project management practices and documenting consistent program plans across our activities. […] It is a great honor to lead an organization that has such significant reach and impact on helping to prevent nuclear terrorism. I invite you to read our FY 2013 Annual Report to learn more about our significant accomplishments in nonproliferation and international security during FY 2013."
