The EIS recommends Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico to create test assemblies and Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee to analyze them after testing. Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson has 30 days to issue a record of decision finalizing the plan. Richardson said the environmental review advances safe disposition of U.S. and Russian surplus plutonium and aims to convert it into non weaponizable forms. A four volume copy of the EIS can be requested by calling, mailing, or via the Internet.
