199877509Oak Ridge TN: Lockheed Martin Energy Systems inc 1998. Presumed First Edition First printing. Spiral bound. Very good. 2 X 64 pages plus covers. Figures. Footnotes. Acronyms and Abbreviations. Appendix A: Tasking Letter. Appendix B: Nuclear Weapons Information Holdings. Appendix C: Interface with Other Activities. Appendix D: Records Management. Appendix E. References. Nov. 6 1998 distribution memorandum to multiple addressees laid in. This was compiled by the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant. It is marked OUO and it is stated that it 'may' be exempt from public release under FOIA. Given the passage of time and the effect of the Supreme Court ruling in Milner v. Department of Navy it is believed that this limitation no longer applies. In February 1998 Dr. Charles Stuart Director of the Advanced Design and Production Technologies ADAPT Initiative was directed to take a comprehensive look at archiving activities across the nuclear weapons complex and provide an assessment of current activities and future needs. This report documents that assessment. A key recommendation was to place the following language in coordination with the National Archives and Records Administration as an addition to Department of Energy Records Schedule 3 Nuclear Weapons Records: "DOE Defense Programs may from time to time suspend the disposal of DOE records whole series or parts there of covered by one or mores items of N1-434-96.5 DOE Records Schedule 3 Nuclear Weapons Records which contain information necessary to ensure the safety security and reliability of the nuclear weapons stockpile in support of the Stockpile Stewardship Program. Authorization to resume disposal actions will be issued when the information has been captured and included in an appropriate information system." This addition allows Defense Programs to legally hold documents past their scheduled destruction periods and to legally destroy documents that are no longer needed without continuing to hold all documents in a DOE Records Schedule category. This wording allows evaluations and assessments of records as the Stockpile Stewards Program matured and technology gains were realized. Lockheed Martin Energy Systems, inc unknown

199774858Washington DC: Nuclear Energy Institute 1997. Xerox-type of agenda and presentation vugraphs. Binderclipped loose pages. Fair. Unpaginated approximately 150 pages. Very scarce surviving meeting materials. Some pages of inferior copy quality but are quite readable. This meeting was held near the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and was foundational to the U.S. MOX decisions. This package of materials includes a copy of the agenda and copies of each presentation listed on the agenda. These are: Site Infrastructure & Building Feasibility Review for a MOX Fabrication Facility by Damian Peko Office of Fissile Materials Disposition U. S. Department of Energy; BNFL MOX Fabrication and Licensing Experience by Bryen Martin BNFL; Belgonucleaire MOX Fabrication and Licensing Experience by Michel Debauche Manager MOX Plant Engineering Belgonucleaire; COGEMA Inc. MOX Fabrication and Licensing Experience by Gerard Lebastard Director International Business COGEMA and Siemens Power Corp. MOX Fabrication and Licensing Experience by Carl A. Duckwitz Consultant. Marvin Fertel Vice President Suppliers International and Fuels Nuclear Energy Institute welcomed the attendees at the start and summarized the discussion at the end no vugraphs associated with his remarks. The U.S. Department of Energy DOE signed a contract with Duke COGEMA Stone & Webster DCS now called Shaw AREVA MOX Services MOX Services or the applicant to design build and operate a Mixed Oxide MOX Fuel Fabrication Facility MFFF. On February 28 2001 the applicant submitted a request to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission NRC to construct a MFFF on the DOE's Savannah River Site SRS near Aiken South Carolina. On March 30 2005 the Commission issued the construction authorization CA. Two years after the CA was issued the construction started. In 2006 MOX Services submitted a license application to possess and use byproduct and special nuclear material SNM at the MFFF. When the facility is authorized to use and possess SNM it will take surplus weapon-grade plutonium remove impurities and mix it with uranium oxide to form MOX fuel pellets for reactor fuel assemblies. These assemblies will be irradiated in commercial nuclear power reactors. Following irradiation the resulting spent fuel would contain plutonium in a form less usable for nuclear weapons.

COver has some wear and soiling. ix 1 . 193 1 p. References. Diagrams. Maps. Illustrations. Index. Most of the earth's population would survive the immediate horrors of a nuclear holocaust but what long-term climatological changes would affect their ability to secure food and shelter This sobering book considers the effects of fine dust from ground-level detonations of smoke from widespread fires and of chemicals released into the atmosphere. The authors use mathematical models of atmospheric processes and data from natural situations-e.g. volcanic eruptions and arctic haze-to draw their conclusions. This is the most detailed and comprehensive probe of the scientific evidence published to date. National Academies Press paperback
198965251National Academies Press 1989. Trade paperback. Very good. No dust jacket as issued. References. Abbreviations. x 146 p. In this volume the National Research Council examines problems arising throughout government-owned contractor-operated facilities in the United States engaged in activities to build nuclear weapons. The book draws conclusions about and makes recommendations for the health and safety of the nuclear weapons complex and addresses pressing environmental concerns. In addition the book examines the future of the complex and offers suggestions for its modernization. Several explanatory appendixes provide useful background information on the functioning of the complex criticality safety plutonium chemistry and weapons physics. In the aftermath of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power station the Department of energy DOE asked the National Research Council to examine possible implications of the accident for the large reactors operated by the Department. The reactors included those then operating at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina and at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in the state of Washington. In response the National Research Council issued reports in 1987 and 1988 that focused on a variety of safety management and technical issues. In the meantime concerns developed with regard to the other nonreactor facilities in the nuclear weapons complex. As a result of these concerns Congress directed the Secretary of Energy to request that the National Research Concil report its conclusions and recommendations concerning health safety and environmental issues arising throughout the complex and steps that would enhance the safety of operations at the facilties. This report fulfills the Secretary's request. National Academies Press paperback

Peaceful nuclear explosions PNEs are nuclear explosions conducted for non-military purposes such as activities related to economic development including the creation of canals. During the 1960s and 1970s both the United States and the Soviet Union conducted a number of PNEs. Six of the explosions by the Soviet Union are considered to have been of an applied nature not just tests. Subsequently the United States and the Soviet Union halted their programs. Definitions and limits are covered in the Peaceful Nuclear Explosions Treaty of 1976. In the PNE Treaty the signatories agreed: not to carry out any individual nuclear explosions having a yield exceeding 150 kilotons; not to carry out any group explosion consisting of a number of individual explosions having an aggregate yield exceeding 1500 kilotons; and not to carry out any group explosion having an aggregate yield exceeding 150 kilotons unless the individual explosions in the group could be identified and measured by agreed verification procedures. The parties also reaffirmed their obligations to comply fully with the Limited Test Ban Treaty of 1963. The parties reserve the right to carry out nuclear explosions for peaceful purposes in the territory of another country if requested to do so but only in full compliance with the yield limitations and other provisions of the PNE Treaty and in accord with the Non-Proliferation Treaty. The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty of 1996 prohibits all nuclear explosions regardless of whether they are for peaceful purposes or not. Project Gasbuggy was an underground nuclear detonation carried out by the United States Atomic Energy Commission on December 10 1967 in rural northern New Mexico. It was part of Operation Plowshare a program designed to find peaceful uses for nuclear explosions. Gasbuggy was carried out by the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory and the El Paso Natural Gas Company with funding from the Atomic Energy Commission. Its purpose was to determine if nuclear explosions could be useful in fracturing rock formations for natural gas extraction. The site lying in the Carson National Forest is approximately 34 km 21 mi southwest of Dulce New Mexico and 87 km 54 mi east of Farmington and was chosen because natural gas deposits were known to be held in sandstone beneath Leandro Canyon. A 29 kt 120 TJ device was placed at a depth of 1288 m 4227 ft underground then the well was backfilled before the device was detonated; a crowd had gathered to watch the detonation from atop a nearby butte. The detonation took place after a couple of delays the last one caused by a breakdown of the explosive refrigeration system. The detonation produced a rubble chimney that was 24 m 80 ft wide and 102 m 335 ft high above the blast center. After an initial surface cleanup effort the site sat idle for over a decade. A later surface cleanup effort primarily tackled leftover toxic materials. In 1978 a marker monument was installed at the Surface Ground Zero SGZ point that provided basic explanation of the historic test. Below the main plaque lies another which indicates that no drilling or digging is allowed without government permission. The site is publicly accessible via the Carson National Forest F.S. 357 dirt road/Indian J10 that leads into the Carson National Forest. Following the Project Gasbuggy test two subsequent nuclear explosion fracturing experiments were conducted in western Colorado in an effort to refine the technique. They were Project Rulison in 1969 and Project Rio Blanco in 1973. In both cases the gas radioactivity was still seen as too high and in the last case the triple-blast rubble chimney structures disappointed the design engineers. Soon after that test the ~ 15-year Project Plowshare program funding dried up. These early fracturing tests were later superseded by hydraulic fracturing fracking technologies.
