Biographical Information on Report Authors. Abbreviations. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. The team was tasked to perform an independent business case analysis of weapons surveillance and evaluation facility alternatives for NNSA's Pantex plant. The team developed quantitative and qualitative data for a set of alternatives ranging from not building a weapons surveillance and evaluation facility to building a full capacity-sized facility. Surveillance is the process of inspecting a weapon through various tests of the weapon as a whole, the weapon's components, and the weapon's materials to determine whether they are meeting performance expectations, through dismantling the weapon or through the use of diagnostic tools. The Pantex Plant is the primary United States nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility that aims to maintain the safety, security and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile. The facility is located on a 16,000 acre site 17 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas. The plant is managed and operated for the United States Department of Energy by Consolidated Nuclear Security. Consolidated Nuclear Security, LLC (CNS) is composed of member companies Bechtel National, Inc., Leidos, Inc., Orbital ATK, Inc, and SOC LLC, with Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc. as a teaming subcontractor. CNS also operates the Y-12 National Security Complex. The plant and its grounds are strictly controlled and off-limits to all civilians, and the airspace above and around the plant is prohibited to civilian air traffic by the FAA as Prohibited Area P-47.
