consumption would represent approximate increases of 1 percent, 5 percent, 4 percent, and 18 percent in theseutilities, respectively. The Park could also provide up to 1,500 new jobs and would increase traffic by up to3,000 vehicle trips per day. Development would convert 30 undeveloped acres to office and light industrialuse. This area, less than 0.25 percent of the vegetated landscape at LANL, currently provides a buffer forresidential areas. This project has its own NEPA coverage provided by the Environmental Assessment forthe Lease of Land for the Development of a Research Park at Los Alamos National Laboratory (DOE 1997e)along with a Finding of No Significant Impact.Status: Construction of the first building in the Research Park began in February of 2000 and wascompleted in March of 2001. Occupancy of the building began in June 2001. In March of 2003, with theexception of a few single office suites, the entire first building is leased. LANL’s operations at the ResearchPark are based on partnerships between industry collaborators and various Laboratory groups. These groupsstand to benefit from industry-related research and, by their joint activities, help foster economic developmentin Los Alamos County.c) Strategic Computing Complex (renamed Nicholas C. Metropolis Center for Modeling and Simulation)Description: The SCC houses one of the world’s fastest supercomputers. It is a three-story structure with267,000 square feet under roof. About 300 designers, computer scientists, code developers, and universityand industrial scientists occupy the building. The building was connected to existing sewer, water, andnatural gas lines, but required a new 115/13.8-kilovolt substation transformer at the TA-03 power plant. Threecooling towers were constructed, expandable to six if needed.The SCC will require an estimated 63 million gallons of cooling water per year. This water is proposed tocome from treated waters from the sewage facility, which total more than 100 million gallons annually. TheSCC is projected to have a maximum electricity load requirement of seven megawatts, or about 10 percentof total LANL demand. This amount of cooling water and electricity is what is anticipated when the facilityhas all of the computers installed that it was designed to accommodate. That will probably take several years.When the “Q” machine is completely installed, it will fill about half of the computer room. Another computerwill probably be installed a few years later.The Nonproliferation and International Security Center (left) and the Strategic Computing Complex2-168SWEIS Yearbook—2002
This project had its NEPA coverage provided by the Environmental Assessment for the Proposed StrategicComputing Complex, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico (DOE 1998g). Thisproposal was an allowable interim action, and the NEPA review proceeded separately from the SWEIS.Based on the environmental assessment, DOE issued a Finding of No Significant Impact in December 1998.Status: Construction of this new building got underway in 1999 and continued on schedule through2000 and 2001. At the end of 2001, construction was complete and items on the final punch list were beingaddressed. Occupancy began in December 2001 and was completed in 2002.d) Nonproliferation and International Security CenterDescription: The NISC is a four-story building plus basement of 164,000 square feet with a capacity tohouse 465 people. It is being constructed adjacent to the new SCC within TA-03. The building will havelaboratories, a machine shop for fabrication of satellite parts, a high-bay fabrication area, an area for the safehandling of sealed radioactive sources, and offices. Building heating and cooling will be by closed-loop watersystems.Because all occupants are to be relocated from other LANL buildings, there is no expected increase inquantities of sewage, solid wastes, or chemical wastes, nor should there be increased demand for utilities. Toaccommodate both the SCC and NISC, nearby parking lots are to be expanded to accommodate an additional800 to 900 vehicles.Status: NEPA review for the NISC project was provided by the Environmental Assessment for theNonproliferation and International Security Center (DOE 1999j) and a Finding of No Significant Impact.Design of the building began in 1999 and continued through 2000. Construction started in March 2001, andthe building was enclosed in May of 2002. Interior work is progressing. Occupancy began in March 2003.e) Emergency Operations CenterDescription: The Cerro Grande Fire demonstrated several inadequacies within the current EmergencyOperations Center and Multi-Channel Communications capabilities. The fire showed that the EmergencyOperations Center has outlived its useful life. Further research showed that upgrading it would be neithereconomical nor practical, and the decision was made to have a new Emergency Operations Center designedand built.Status: During CY 2001, the conceptual design was completed and the final design was initiated. Alsoduring 2001, an environmental assessment (DOE 2001f) was prepared to address both the EmergencyOperations Center and the Multi-Channel Communications. With the current schedule, the EmergencyOperations Center is expected to be operational by September 30, 2003.f) Multi-Channel Communications ProjectDescription: The Multi-Channel Communications Project addresses communication vulnerabilities madeevident in the Cerro Grande Fire. The new communications and information systems will provide flexibilityto communicate between the LANL Emergency Operations Center and external entities to respond tofuture emergencies with the most up to date information. The conceptual design was received in 2001 andprocurement of long lead items was initiated. Also during 2001, an environmental assessment (DOE 2001f)was prepared to address both the Emergency Operations Center and the Multi-Channel Communications.Equipment for the Radio Upgrade to increase the number of channels to 15 has been received and will beinstalled during CY 2003 at the Communications, Computing, and Networking site on Pajarito Mountain.The Multi-band Radio System, which allows the Emergency Operations Center to communicate with outsideagencies, was received, programmed, is functional and will be installed in the Emergency Operations Center.SWEIS Yearbook—2002 2-169
