| 02-7923 | Floodplain Statement of Finding for the Disposition of the Omega West Facility at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM | Notice | This Floodplain Statement of Findings is for the disposition of the Omega West Facility from the Los Alamos Canyon floodplain at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, New Mexico. This Statement of Findings is prepared in accordance with 10 CFR part 1022. The Department of Energy's (DOE) National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), Office of Los Alamos Site Operations plans to decontaminate and demolish the Omega West Facility from the Los Alamos Canyon bottom to reduce the potential for radioactive contaminant spread and debris dissemination in the event of a major flood. The Omega West Facility (the Facility) housed an old research reactor known as the Omega West Reactor (OWR). The OWR was shut down in 1992 and the fuel rods were removed from the Facility in 1994. The Facility, originally constructed in 1944, and its associated structures are of advanced age and not in a condition suitable for renovation or reapplication. Further, they are located within a potential flood pathway. There is no foreseeable future use for the Facility, which is eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. NNSA prepared a floodplain assessment describing the effects, and measures designed to avoid or minimize potential harm to or within the affected floodplains. | 2002-04-02 | 2002 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2002/04/02/02-7923/floodplain-statement-of-finding-for-the-disposition-of-the-omega-west-facility-at-los-alamos | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2002-04-02/pdf/02-7923.pdf | Energy Department; National Nuclear Security Administration | 136,359 | This Floodplain Statement of Findings is for the disposition of the Omega West Facility from the Los Alamos Canyon floodplain at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, New Mexico.
