About this ebook
The National Nuclear Security Admin. (NNSA) manages and secures the nation¿s nuclear weapons stockpile, with annual appropriations of $6.4 billion. NNSA oversees eight contractor-operated sites that execute its programs. Two programs make up 1/3 of this budget: Readiness in Technical Base and Facilities (RTBF) Operations of Facilities, which operates and maintains weapons facilities and infrastructure, and Stockpile Services, which provides R&D and production capabilities. This report determines the extent to which NNSA¿s budget justifications for: (1) RTBF Operations of Facilities; and (2) Stockpile Services are based on the total costs of providing these capabilities. Also discusses the implications of a smaller stockpile on these costs.
