Dear Mr. Chairman:
In my March 9, 2004, status report for
deliverable 4.6.1 of the Department’s implementation plan for Defense Nuclear
Facilities Safety Board Recommendation 2002-3, we advised you that by March 31,
2004, we would transmit the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) portion of
the commitment or advise you of the date by which we would provide it. The LANL portion of deliverable 4.6.1 is
enclosed. This completes all the
National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) actions for deliverable 4.6.1.
If you have any questions about the LANL
portion of commitment 4.6, or about our path forward on this or other NNSA
actions under the implementation plan, please contact me or have your staff
