DOE/NNSA is basing its approvals for current and future operations at the Pantex Plant on a previous environmental impact study that is out of date [Document Citation: Continued Operation of the Pantex Plant and Associated Storage of Nuclear Weapons Components (ROD published in 62 FR 3880, January 27, 1997)]. It does not currently reflect 
    • the current footprint of the operational area of the Plant, 
    • accurate boundaries of the Plant, given current access and adjacent land purchase activities underway by Pantex, 
    • the existing facilities on-site, given that buildings have been decommissioned and demolished and others constructed, 
    • technologies that have come into existence in the past approximately 13-years, and 
    • the nature of security in a post-9/11 world.
