On August 27, 2018, the Alliance for Nuclear Accountability sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry.

The letter addresses ANA’s grave concerns regarding DOE Order 140.1 Interface with the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (5/14/2018), which limits the Department of Energy (DOE) and National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) requirements to provide access to information, facilities, and personnel to the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (DNFSB or Board) at some of the most dangerous nuclear facilities in the country.

ANA has also prepared a two-page fact sheet outlining the network’s positions on the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board and the proposed drastic changes by the Department of Energy.
