Request
($000)
Increase from the FY 2011 Request level reflects Federal
oversight of the Pit Disassembly and Conversion at the
Savannah River Site; Uranium Processing Facility at Y-12; and
the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement Facility at
Los Alamos National Laboratory. This request is consistent
with the DOE/NNSA federal project management improvement
initiative. The increase is partially offset by decreased FTEs
due to Governance efficiencies. +5,727
Other Related Expenses
Decrease from the FY 2011 Request level reflects directed
savings due to President’s SAVE Awards effort to enhanced
reliance on video telecommunications. Additionally reflects the
government-wide initiative to reduce administrative costs
through more efficient operations.
Offsetting increases support the need to fund all NNSA site
office space requirements, building maintenance at the Service
Center, increases for the operational costs associated with the
International offices, and increases to the Working Capital Fund
to support increased iManage efforts and adding federal salaries
in the WCF billing. -3,934
