SUMMARY:JOIN US: Upcoming Virtual Workshops on the Nationwide Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US:\nVirtual Workshops\nOn the Nationwide Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement on the Expanded Production of Plutonium “Pit” Bomb Cores \nPublic comments help increase transparency and safety. \nIt is crucial that the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and US Department of Energy hear from scientists\, experts\, and community members like you. \n\nPublic Comment Training: Expanded Plutonium Pit Production\nDate: Monday\, June 16\nTime: 4:00–5:00 p.m. ET\, 2:00–3:00 p.m. MT\n  \n\nPublic Comment Training #2: Expanded Plutonium Pit Production\nDate: Thursday\, June 26\nTime: 6:00–7:00 p.m. ET\, 4:00–5:00 p.m. MT\n\nClick on your preferred workshop to register now! \n\nThese workshops will feature: \n\nTalking points and suggested scoping comments\nExplanation of procedural process\nThe Union of Concerned Scientists’ new comprehensive study of pit production at www.ucs.org/resources/plutonium-pit-production\nQuestion & answers with subject matter experts\n\nBackground: Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act\, Nuclear Watch New Mexico\, Savannah River Site Watch and Tri-Valley CAREs successfully sued the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) over its failure to complete a required nationwide “programmatic environmental impact statement” (PEIS) for its most costly program ever\, the expanded production of plutonium “pit” bomb cores. Their production is the current chokepoint to resumed industrial-scale of nuclear weapons by the United States. Ironically\, no future pit production is to maintain the safety and reliability of the existing nuclear stockpile. Instead\, all future pit production is for new design nuclear weapons for the new nuclear arms race. \nTo meet its enforced legal obligation\, the NNSA must consider written comments submitted by July 14 on what the scope of the PEIS should be. NNSA wants to keep its scope narrowly confined to discussion of alternative levels of pit production rather than questioning the need for production to begin with. A few examples of needed scope include compliance with the NonProliferation Treaty\, reusing existing pits\, ensuring nuclear safety\, the lack of credible cost estimates and where radioactive wastes will go. For more see suggested scoping comments at https://nukewatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Pit-PEIS-suggested-scoping-comments-5-27-25.pdf \n  \nScoping comments due by July 14 can be emailed to PitPEIS@nnsa.doe.gov or mailed to: \nMs. Kristen M. Dors\, NEPA Compliance Officer \nNNSA Los Alamos Field Office \n3747 W. Jemez Road\, Los Alamos\, NM 87544 \n  \nFor additional background\, see NNSA’s formal Notice of Intent at https://www.energy.gov/nepa/articles/doeeis-0573-notice-intent-may-2025 for the PEIS Following publication of a draft PEIS (expected in a year)\, in person public hearings will be held in Livermore\, CA; Santa Fe\, NM; Kansas City\, MO; Aiken; SC\, and Washington\, DC. \nLet’s transform this Pit Production Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement into a public referendum on the new nuclear arms race! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganized By: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNuclear Watch New Mexico | nukewatch.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSavannah River Site Watch | srswatch.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTri-Valley CAREs | trivalleycares.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnion of Concerned Scientists | ucs.org
