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

the past three years, this strategy has contributed to the increased throughput on NNSA mission
objectives for Stockpile Stewardship, Life Extension Program and Retired Weapons Systems.
In FY 2012, planned projects include high pressure fire loop tank replacements, chiller replacements,
refurbishment of mission critical facilities housing a gas laboratory, and steam pipe refurbishments.
Also, the FY 2012 Budget Request includes planning for FY 2013 recapitalization projects, and
continued support of roof repairs executed through the nuclear security enterprise Roof Asset
Management Program (RAMP), achieving improved cost efficiencies and life extension of Pantex’s
roofing assets.
Site Stewardship
In FY 2012, Site Stewardship efforts will be directed toward Environmental Projects and Operations
Long Term Stewardship (LTS) activities required for ensuring environmental regulatory compliance;
and Energy Modernization and Investment Program activities aimed at achieving Departmental energy
efficiency goals. The environmental restoration project was completed by the Office of Environmental
Management at the end of FY 2008; and in FY 2009 LTS became the responsibility of the NNSA. The
NNSA LTS activities include long-term surveillance and maintenance, monitoring, and reporting and
will continue to assure protection of public health and the environment.
The 2012 Energy Modernization and Investment Program activities support priority energy conservation
projects that will reduce energy consumption, enhance energy independence and security and provide
life-cycle cost effective benefits. Projects that provide the most significant contribution towards
achievement of NNSA’s energy goals and result in cost avoidances/savings and social benefits will be
selected from the EMIP Integrated Prioritized Project List (IPPL) for execution.
Defense Nuclear Security
The Defense Nuclear Security program at Pantex provides plant protection measures consistent with
requirements documented in the Site Safeguards and Security Plan (SSSP). During FY 2012, the site
will sustain the 2008 Graded Security Protection Policy upgrades. The program will also focus strongly
on life cycle replacement of aging intrusion detection and assessment systems and other protection
systems with emphasis on utilization of new technologies
Cyber Security
The NNSA Cyber Security program implements a flexible, comprehensive, and risk-based cyber
security program that (a) protects the NNSA information and information assets; (b) is predicated on
Executive Orders; national standards; laws and regulations; Departmental and NNSA orders, manuals,
directives and guidance; and (c) results in a policy-driven cyber security architecture; aligned with the
NNSA Enterprise architecture; a programmatic framework and methodology that is based on current
policies and procedures; and a management approach that integrates all the components of a
comprehensive cyber security program; ensures alignment of the program with NNSA and Departmental
strategic plans and relevant plans of the Office of the CIO.
Pantex will maintain the cyber security training program for personnel who have system administrator
responsibilities. Pantex will also establish an effective program to manage the implementation of
wireless computer technologies site-wide. Also, the site will implement cyber security life-cycle
management processes, to include upgrading cyber security components.
