1.0 Introduction1.1 The SWEISIn 1999, the US Department of Energy (DOE) 1 published a Site-Wide Environmental Impact Statementfor Continued Operation of the Los Alamos National Laboratory (DOE 1999a). DOE issued its Record ofDecision (ROD) on this Site-Wide Environmental Impact Statement (SWEIS) in September 1999 (DOE1999b). The ROD identified the decisions DOE made on levels of operation for LANL for the foreseeablefuture.1.2 Annual YearbookTo enhance the usefulness of this SWEIS, a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) document, DOEand LANL implemented a program making annual comparisons between SWEIS ROD projections and actualoperations via an Annual Yearbook. The Yearbook’s purpose is not to present environmental impacts orenvironmental consequences, but rather to provide data that could be used to develop an impact analysis. TheYearbook focuses on the following:• Facility and process modifications or additions (Chapter 2). These include projected activities, forwhich NEPA coverage was provided by the SWEIS, and some post-SWEIS activities for whichenvironmental coverage was not provided. In the latter case, the Yearbook identifies the additionalNEPA analyses (i.e., categorical exclusions and environmental assessments) that were performed.• The types and levels of operations during the calendar year (Chapter 2). Types of operations aredescribed using capabilities defined in the SWEIS. Levels of operations are expressed in unitsof production, numbers of researchers, numbers of experiments, hours of operation, and otherdescriptive units.• Operations data for the Key Facilities, comparable to data projected by the SWEIS ROD (Chapter2). Data for each facility include waste generated, air emissions, liquid effluents, and number ofworkers.• Site-wide effects of operations for the calendar year (Chapter 3). These include measures such asnumber of workers, radiation doses, workplace incidents, utility requirements, air emissions, liquideffluents, and solid wastes. These effects also include changes in the regional aquifer, ecologicalresources, and other resources for which the DOE has long-term stewardship responsibilities as anowner of federal lands.• Trend analysis (Chapter 4). This includes analysis on land use, quantities of waste generated, utilityconsumption, long-term effects from Laboratory operations, and the Cerro Grande RehabilitationProject.• Ten-Year Comprehensive Site Plan (TYSCP; Chapter 5). This is a summary of what the Laboratoryis proposing for potential future projects relative to land usage; structure maintenance, construction,and decontamination and demolition; and infrastructure maintenance and improvements.1Congress established the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) within the DOE to manage the nuclear weapons program for theUnited States. Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL or Laboratory) is one of the facilities now managed by the NNSA. The NNSA officiallybegan operations on March 1, 2000. Its mission is to carry out the national security responsibilities of the DOE, including maintenance of a safe,secure, and reliable stockpile of nuclear weapons and associated materials capabilities and technologies; promotion of international nuclear safety andnonproliferation; and administration and management of the naval nuclear propulsion program.SWEIS Yearbook—2002 1-1
