PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS

In March 1989, Secretary of Energy James D. Watkins outlined his vision for a changed Department of Energy (DOE) culture.  This culture in one of environmental responsibility, increased knowledge and involvement in environmental management, a new openness to public input, and overall accountability to the Nation for its actions.

The Environmental Management Program evolved from this vision. ERD supports or manages five major restoration sites.

Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)
Sandia National Laboratories (SNL)
Pantex Plant
Kansas City Plant
Inhalation Toxicology Laboratory (ITL)

In addition, ERD participates in the restoration of the South Valley Superfund Site located in Albuquerque.
