After more than seven years’ work and
$213 million, the new security system at Los Alamos National Laboratory’s most
important nuclear weapons manufacturing site doesn’t work.
A lab spokesman
acknowledged the project suffered from construction problems, and an internal
government memo suggests longstanding concerns by the federal government about
the way Los Alamos has managed the project.
The
project, intended to provide tighter security at the lab’s Technical Area 55,
where plutonium research is done and nuclear bomb parts are made, was scheduled
to be finished early next year. Instead, it will be delayed indefinitely.
