The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a semi-autonomous agency within the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is proposing new construction and upgrade activities in lower Sandia Canyon at Technical Area (TA) 72 at the Outdoor Live Fire Range facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The proposed upgrades are intended to improve range safety to help fulfill the mission requirements of maintaining a trained and qualified armed Protective Force. The project activities within the 100-year floodplain include: 1) installation of eight permanent flagpoles, 2) installation of weatherproof electronic range status board, 3) removal a backstop berm on a decommissioned range, and 4) removing and replacing storage structures.
