Congressional Items of Interest: In FY 2012, pending NWC authorization, NNSA will establish the
B61 Mod 12 Life Extension Program to extend the life of the B61 Mod 3, 4, and 7 nuclear bombs. The
procurement and installation of equipment for the Radiological Laboratory/Utility/Office Building
(RLUOB) continues at the Chemistry Metallurgy Research Replacement (CMRR) Project at the Los
Alamos National Laboratory along with the design of the Nuclear Facility.
Major Changes or Shifts:
In FY 2012, funding for the B61 life extension activities moves from Stockpile Systems to the Life
Extension Program in anticipation of Nuclear Weapons Council approval of B61 Phase 6.3 engineering
development. At Los Alamos, there is a net decrease in funding for B61 life extension activities due to
an increased focus on production preparation at other sites. Further, a decrease in Plutonium
Sustainment reflects the completion of the W88 pit build. Efforts will be reduced related to preparation
for future planned pit production missions and associated manufacturing facilities and process
modernization activities. The close-out of the W88 pit build with initiation of the tooling and equipment
modification to transition to the next legacy pit type process. CMRR has significantly increased between
FY 2011 and FY 2012 as the project is in the final design phase for the Nuclear Facility. In FY 2012,
