Talk:National Nuclear Security Administration

The last part of the article, about data security, previously read like journalism rather than an encyclopedia article. I've now edited it into a more NPOV form. -- Karada 08:56, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Linton Brooks fired
Nuclear agency head dismissed for lapses

WASHINGTON - Tens of millions of dollars and repeated security reviews haven't stopped embarrassing security breakdowns in the government's nuclear weapons program — and now the man in charge has been sent packing.

Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman on Thursday ousted the head of the National Nuclear Security Administration, which maintains the nuclear weapons stockpile and oversees the nation's weapons research laboratories.

"I have decided it is time for new leadership at the NNSA," Bodman said in announcing that the agency's chief, Linton Brooks, would resign within the month....

[T]he rash of security problems ... include the disappearance of two hard drives containing classified material that later were found behind a copying machine and the disappearance of two computer disks that forced a virtual shutdown of Los Alamos. It later was learned the two disks never existed.

Among other incidents were lost keys to classified areas containing highly enriched uranium, use of less secure e-mail systems to transmit classified material, scientists losing track of vials of plutonium and the alleged improper use of government credit cards.

Needs clarification and updating.
This article exists in some sort of vacuum. Barely mentioned on the main DOE article, not mention on this page of the FPF until I added a hatnote. Not clear if FPF falls under NNSA. Where the hell does OST fall under? This article doesn't make it clear. Now according to the following links, OST and Defense Nuclear Security fall under NNSA and FPF falls under DNS, so maybe.
