Nuclear Weapons Information Management Assessment Report; Assessment of Nuclear Weapons Information Activities Y/ES-251

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

[NUCLEAR WAR] KAHN, HermanBiblio.com

On Thermonuclear War

196085542Princeton New Jersey: Princeton University Press 1960. First Edition. Octavo. 24cm. Publisher's terracotta cloth titled and ruled in black and gilt to spine. Dustjacket. xx; 651pp. Very light wear and bumping to spine ends and extremities strong and bright; internally clean and fresh; in a grey dustjacket with some minor edgewear and shallow chipping to the spine ends and edges a hint of toning to the spine panel and some light soiling and wear to the white rear panel. A very good handsome copy indeed.<br /> <br /> Kahn's deeply influential analysis of the spectre of thermonuclear war partly intended as a counterpoint to von Neumann's apocalyptic concept of MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction. Kahn posits the strategic possibility of a 'winnable' nuclear conflict questions the solidity of a peace structure based on thermonuclear threat and makes the highly controversial for the time suggestion that the spectre of thermonuclear conflict itself isn't actually that terrifying and that the spectre of it is really what most people get worked up about. Kahn is an analytical strategist his conclusions are based in a zone in which emotion only plays the smallest part and upon publication the book elicited some powerful reactions from readers uncomfortable with the potential at the time inevitable deaths of millions being presented in the form of graphs and calm inexorable strategic detachment. Hubert Humphrey's contemporary review of the work stated "New thoughts particularly those which contradict current assumptions are always painful for the human mind to contemplate. On Thermonuclear War is filled with such thoughts."<br /> <br /> Perhaps as inevitable antidote to the grimly sardonic nature of his analysis Kahn's work earned him a place in the eternal halls of pop culture being the impromptu scriptwriter for the character of General Buck Turgidson in "Dr. Strangelove" and with popular understanding of his theories featuring prominently in fiction from Tom Clancy to "Wargames." Kahn is also credited with the coining of the phrases "Megadeath" as a unit of fatality and "Wargasm" describing the focus of the military personnel he worked with both of which have seeped into common usage. Kahn's borderline crude delivery combining horrifying statistics with jokes about how women will come to love their two-headed babies was deliberately jarring and intended to be equally disruptive to those locked in fearful uninformed paralysis and those working towards the wargasm. The reception of his book was one of the catalyzing elements that led Kahn to be a co-founder of The Hudson Institute after his work at RAND reached its inevitable close. Regardless of how divisive Kahn was both in theory and delivery "On Thermonuclear War" ranks as one of the most important 20th century works of strategic analysis right down to the title being an updated and expanded nod to von Clausewitz's "On War.

First edition of this very scarce original safety analyses reports for Portland General Electricâ€™s pair of nuclear power plants to have been constructed at Pebble Springs in Gilliam County Oregon as part of a group with the proposed Trojan Nuclear Power plant licensed to run beginning in 1976 at 1100 Megawatts. These nuclear power plants had been proposed and begun development soon after construction began at the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant and by 1979 over $ 250 million had been spent by the State of Oregon and PGE on development costs. The two reactors would have been located 3 miles southeast of the Columbia River would have consisted of a Nuclear Steam System for each plant with a Reactor Coolant System supplied by Babcock & Wilcox square lattice reactor cores and abundant auxiliary systems. These reports include a myriad of updates carried out during the regulatory review of the project and the preliminary development work but after passage in 1980 of Ballot Measure 7 by Oregon voters no nuclear power plants could be considered for construction unless there was a Federal high-level waste repository and approval by Oregon voters. Several nuclear power plants had been proposed and received geotechnical studies in the Pacific Northwest following up the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant constructed upon the site of the former Trojan Powder Co. plant site as well as adjacent properties beginning in 1967. Pitched to PGE as a means to solve the exploding power usage demand in the fast-growing Portland OR area in the Mid-20th-Century by Admiral Lewis Strauss of the Atomic Energy Commission PGE and 13 other utilities began planning in 1967 and construction began July 30 1968. PGE chose to build a pressurized water reactor plant and the enormous plant and huge construction cost were projected at the time to be cheaper than coal-fired power plants to supplement the massive hydropower presence in the PNW. Oregon Governor Tom McCall established the first Nuclear Siting Task Force of the Nuclear Development Coordinating Committee in 1969 in order to approve location of nuclear power plants consistent with Oregonâ€™s environmental protections as well as comply with the forthcoming Clean Air Act passed in 1970. Should be noted that the original Pebble Springs site is now the location of a massive 99 Megawatt Wind Farm.

Pershing System

196982559Sandia Base Albuquerque New Mexico: Defense Atomic Support Agency Field Command Nuclear Training Directorate 1969. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Wraps. Good. Three-hole punched and stapled at left side. iv 22 pages. Illustrated front cover. Illustrations. Cover has some wear. The Table of Contents has an introduction and sections on: Pershing Organization Characteristics Pershing Missile Ground Support Equipment Trajectory Theory Flight Sequence and Summary. The fifteen illustrations are: Pershing 1a System Missile Structures Battery Control Central Erector-Launcher and M757 Tractor Programer-Test Station and Power Station Vehicle Radio Terminal Set AN/TRC-80 Missile Section Containers Pershing Trajectory First-Stage Ignition Coast Period First-State Separation and Second-Stage Ignition Thrust Termination and Warhead Separation Case Venting Warhead Reentry and Detonation. In order to improve Pershing's performance in the quick reaction alert role Pershing 1a was developed. Ground support equipment was designed for maximum tactical and strategic mobility electronic computation of firing data and automatic test and checkout equipment. The Pershing 1a also had a specially designed communications set that allowed extremely reliable communications over great distances 99.9-percent reliability at 160 kilometers. This publication was intended for home study and reference by students attending the Nuclear Weapons Maintenance Course Army Weapons Division Nuclear Training Directorate Field Command. An understanding of the facts herein was deemed essential for the proper comprehension of classroom instruction in these courses. 1964 a series of operational tests and follow-on tests were performed to determine Pershing reliability. The Secretary of Defense then requested that the Army define the modifications required to make Pershing suitable for the Quick Reaction Alert QRA role. The Pershing 1a development program was approved in 1965 the original Pershing renamed to Pershing 1 and Martin Marietta received the Pershing 1a production contract in 1967. Project SWAP replaced all the Pershing equipment in Germany by mid-1970 and the first units quickly achieved QRA status. Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara directed that the U.S. Air Force's MGM-13 Mace missile would be replaced by the Pershing 1a in 1965. Pershing 1a was a Quick Reaction Alert system and so had faster vehicles launch times and newer electronics. The total number of launchers increased from 8 to 36 per battalion. Production of the Pershing 1a missile ended in 1975 and reopened in 1977 to replace missiles expended in training. Pershing 1a was further improved in 1971 with the Pershing Missile and Power Station Development Program. A total of 754 MGM-31A missiles were built.
