NNSA operates three programs: Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation, Naval Reactors, and Weapons Activities. The last is the subject of this report. \nThe Weapons Activities account supports programs that maintain U.S. nuclear missile warheads and gravity bombs, provide the materials and components for those weapons, and sustain the infrastructure that supports that mission. According to DOE\u2019s budget documents, these programs provide for \u201cthe maintenance and refurbishment of nuclear weapons to continue sustained confidence in their safety, reliability, and performance; continued investment in scientific, engineering, and manufacturing capabilities to enable production and certification of the enduring nuclear weapons stockpile; and manufacture of nuclear weapon components.\u201d\nNNSA\u2019s budget request for FY2021 seeks $15.6 billion for Weapons Activities, an increase of 25% over the enacted funding of $12.6 billion in FY2020, within a total budget of $19.8 billion for NNSA. \nNNSA has reorganized and renamed its programs areas in its FY2021 budget request. The four main programs, each with a request of over $2 billion for FY2021, include the following:\nStockpile Management, which contains many of the projects included in Directed Stockpile Work from previous years, supports work directly on nuclear weapons. These include life extension programs, warhead surveillance, maintenance, and other activities. The FY2020 appropriation for the programs in Directed Stockpile Work that will now be a part of Stockpile Management was $3.7 billion. NNSA has requested $4.3 billion for them in FY2021.\nStockpile Production programs focus on maintaining and expanding the production capabilities for the components of nuclear weapons that are critical to weapons performance. According to NNSA, these include primaries, canned subassemblies, radiation cases, and non-nuclear components. The FY2020 appropriation for programs that are now included in this program area was $1.6 billion; NNSA has requested $2.5 billion for them in FY2021.\nStockpile Research, Technology, and Engineering replaces the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation program area. These programs provide the scientific foundation for science-based stockpile decisions. The FY2020 appropriation for programs that are now included in this program area was $2.6 billion. NNSA has requested $2.8 billion for them in FY2021.\nInfrastructure and Operations maintains, operates, and modernizes the NNSA infrastructure. It supports construction of new facilities and funds deferred maintenance in older facilities. The FY2020 appropriation for programs that are now included in this program area was $3.2 billion. NNSA has requested $4.4 billion for FY2021.\nWeapons Activities also includes several smaller programs, all of which are described in this report: Secure Transportation Asset, Defense Nuclear Security, Information Technology and Cybersecurity, and Legacy Contractor Pensions.", "type": "CRS Report", "typeId": "REPORTS", "active": true, "formats": [ { "format": "HTML", "encoding": "utf-8", "url": "https://www.crs.gov/Reports/R44442", "sha1": "9acaf0208391b597db8cd0dbef7284eb7d4700c7", "filename": "files/20200406_R44442_9acaf0208391b597db8cd0dbef7284eb7d4700c7.html", "images": { "/products/Getimages/?directory=R/html/R44442_files&id=/1.png": "files/20200406_R44442_images_f3ca5c7f73413ab1645b329a6c4031742782aa74.png", "/products/Getimages/?directory=R/html/R44442_files&id=/2.png": "files/20200406_R44442_images_6a61efa55fd1db80257cd8a83f66f8e5075345d1.png", "/products/Getimages/?directory=R/html/R44442_files&id=/0.png": "files/20200406_R44442_images_2f66a9f53f0e1987dcb0564dec87a8c874d12847.png", "/products/Getimages/?directory=R/html/R44442_files&id=/3.png": "files/20200406_R44442_images_6700ea1388c1f7729a5308814a3b09be2e301725.png" } }, { "format": "PDF", "encoding": null, "url": "https://www.crs.gov/Reports/pdf/R44442", "sha1": "3f5c433b399f8f86e3fd2a1a7471b6d93d353623", "filename": "files/20200406_R44442_3f5c433b399f8f86e3fd2a1a7471b6d93d353623.pdf", "images": {} } ], "topics": [ { "source": "IBCList", "id": 4873, "name": "Strategic Forces, CBRN, & Nonproliferation" }, { "source": "IBCList", "id": 4894, "name": "Energy & Water Development Appropriations" } ] }, { "source": "EveryCRSReport.com", "id": 612481, "date": "2020-01-06", "retrieved": "2020-01-06T23:06:30.547686", "title": "Energy and Water Development Appropriations: Nuclear Weapons Activities", "summary": "The annual Energy and Water Development appropriations bill funds civil works projects of the Army Corps of Engineers, the Department of the Interior\u2019s Bureau of Reclamation, the Department of Energy (DOE), and several independent agencies.\nThe DOE budget includes funding for the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a separately organized agency within DOE.
