Department of Energy FY 2012 Congressional ... - The FIRE Place

Readiness in Technical Base and Facilities (RTBF)
The RTBF is the primary NNSA direct infrastructure funding source to enable DSW and Campaigns
supporting responsiveness, sustaining Environment, Safety and Health, providing rearrangements for
production efficiency, and delivering reliable facility, utility, and equipment uptime in support of
Stockpile Stewardship production missions. The RTBF provides continual support of fundamental
infrastructure services including facilities management and site planning, maintenance, utilities, capital
equipment, general plant projects, expense funded projects; facility startup and project support;
Environment, Safety and Health and Program Readiness. Specific efforts will be focused on completion
of the Supply Chain Management Center and the KCRIMS transformation plan.
Secure Transportation Asset (STA)
The KCP is the engineering assembly agency and technical systems integrator for the STA program.
The KCP staffs, equips, and operates a Vehicle Maintenance Facility and two Mobile-Electronics
Maintenance Facilities which provide mechanical and electrical services to the STA fleet; performs
preventive maintenance, repairs, and modifications on vehicles, trailers, and communications
equipment; provides mission-ready vehicles and trailers to meet STA operational and training schedules;
maintains the Electronic Systems Depot and serves as the engineering lead for all STA communication
relay stations; manages the Missouri and New Mexico Relay Stations and preventive and corrective
maintenance; provides training-realism support and training simulation systems that maintain Federal
Agent readiness; develops prototypes and First Production Units, when required; staffs, equips, and
operates modification/refurbishment facilities to meet the annual targets for Escort Vehicles, Armored
Tractors, Safeguard Transporters, and other transport systems; and provides integrating business
services (quality assurance, secure web, graphics, and document management).
Nuclear Counterterrorism Incident Response (NCTIR)
The NCTIR activities at KCP involve assistance in providing operations and capabilities to Federal,
state and local government agencies for responding to radiological accidents and incidents. This effort
includes special purpose equipment for the program including the Render Safe program.
Facilities and Infrastructure Recapitalization Program (FIRP)
The KCRIMS has allowed redirection of FIRP resources to other critical priorities. The Kansas City
Site Office will continue to manage the NNSA’s Roof Asset Management Program (RAMP), a best
business practice employed throughout the nuclear security enterprise. Under the RAMP, KCP
contracts for an integration manager to oversee an economical roof repair program for all eight nuclear
weapons sites. In 2010, the RAMP was cited in the Secretary of Energy’s directive on cool roofs as a
model for effective roofing management practices for all of DOE.
Site Stewardship
In FY 2012, Site Stewardship efforts will be directed toward Environmental Project and Operations
Long Term Stewardship (LTS) activities required for ensuring environmental regulatory compliance.
The LTS program at the Kansas City Plant consists of activities necessary to maintain compliance with
the restoration of 43 release sites. The LTS activities include but are not limited to, administration of
implemented cleanup actions at NNSA sites, operations and maintenance of treatment and monitoring
systems required under KCP’s Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Post Closure Permit
