Major Outyear Priorities and Assumptions
The outyear projections for the INMP&C program total approximately $2,339,723,000
(FY 2013 – FY 2016). The Program supports efforts to secure and eliminate vulnerable nuclear
weapons and weapons exploitable materials in Russia and other countries of concern and efforts to
prevent and detect the illicit transfer of nuclear material. Outyear funding reflects the completion of
MPC&A post-Bratislava upgrades to warhead and material sites in Russia, security upgrades to address
insider threats, and support for sustainability activities with increased Russian cost sharing to transition
full security maintenance to the Russian Federation. Funding for the SLD program increases as the
program is expanded to include additional land border sites and Megaports in targeted countries of
strategic interest and in countries where NNSA is working with its Department of Homeland Security
counterparts to implement requirements of the "Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11
Commission Act of 2007."
To meet the NNSA strategic long-term goal of Nuclear Nonproliferation, the INMP&C program
completed MPC&A upgrades in Russia at a total of 73 warhead sites at the end of calendar year 2008
and plans to: (1) complete upgrades to approximately 229 buildings containing weapons exploitable
nuclear material by the end of fiscal year 2013; (2) downblend a total of approximately 17 MTs of HEU
by the end of fiscal year 2015; and (3) install radiation detection equipment at approximately 650 border
crossings around the world and at approximately 100 ports of interest in approximately 40 countries by
the end of 2018. These results will directly support the goal of Nuclear Nonproliferation by providing a
first line of defense (securing warheads and weapons exploitable nuclear materials at their source), and a
second line of defense (preventing and detecting the illicit transfer of nuclear materials).
