nuclear stockpile mission1 including capabilities to handle and process-- 7i7 special nuclear materials2 7ii7 radioactive1 hazardous1 and specialized materials2 7iii7 non-nuclear unique components2 and 7iv7 assembled nuclear weapons2 7,b7 that supports the global security mission of the ,administration2 or 7,c7 that supports naval spent fuel management1 nuclear material testing and examination1 and functional nuclear laboratory consolidation for naval nuclear propulsion4 #c4 ,findings ,congress finds the following3 7#a7 ,on ,october #ae1 #bjbd1 the ,administration published the ,enterprise ,blueprint1 a #be-year roadmap to deliver essential infrastructure on time and at scale4 7#b7 ,the nuclear enterprise infrastructure of the ,administration relies on specialized production facilities and science and technology infrastructure to meet nuclear deterrence needs1 including-- 7,a7 research and design sites1 which offer specialized research1 design1 certification1 assessment1 simulation1 and engineering capabilities for the nuclear stockpile1 nuclear nonproliferation1 and counterterrorism2 7,b7 technology and manufacturing sites1 which provide unique production1 processing1 manufacturing1 assembly and disassembly1 integration1 technology development1 and staging and storage capabilities for nuclear weapons and materials2 7,c7 naval reactors sites1 which are responsible for design and engineering of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines for the ,navy and management and examination of naval spent fuel2 and 7,d7 the special experimentation site1 which hosts one-of-kind subcritical testing and a broad suite of unique experimental capabilities for the nuclear deterrence mission1 including the safe handling of special nuclear and other hazardous materials4 7#c7 ,the current state of the nuclear enterprise infrastructure of the ,administration reflects decades of neglect and insufficient planning1 which has resulted in more than #a_/b of the facilities within the nuclear enterprise infrastructure1 many of which date back to the ,manhattan ,project1 being in poor condition4 7#d7 ,the ,united ,states must recapitalize1 modernize1 and expand the nuclear enterprise infrastructure to provide sufficient capacity and capability to meet the requirements of nuclear modernization programs of record4 7#e7 ,the roadmap outlined in the ,enterprise ,blueprint provides a path forward to reconfigure an aged enterprise to meet dynamic and demanding mission requirements1 including-- 7,a7 simultaneous design1 development1 and production of more than #f modernized nuclear weapons systems2 and 7,b7 enduring stockpile stewardship requirements to ensure the nuclear deterrent of the ,united ,states remains safe1 secure1 effective1 and credible4 7#f7 ,the roadmap aligns the recapitalization strategy to address targeted needs with the programs of record as of the date of the enactment of this ,act1 sequencing projects so that facilities are replaced before failure and capabilities are delivered at the speed of relevance4 7#g7 ,to effectuate the roadmap in the ,enterprise ,blueprint1 the ,administration must continuously review infrastructure investment plans for the near-1 medium-1 and long-term1 and provide ,congress with cost estimates1 projected schedules1 and workforce requirements to meet nuclear deterrence needs4 #d4 ,report 7a7 ,in general ,not later than ,february #ae1 #bjbf1 and annually thereafter1 the ,administrator for ,nuclear ,security shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report on future activities and resources for the delivery of specialized infrastructure with demands across the nuclear stockpile1 global security1 and naval nuclear propulsion missions1 which shall include the following3 7#a7 ,an assessment of infrastructure investments necessary in the #e fiscal years following the fiscal year of the report1 including-- 7,a7 the cost estimates and schedules for such infrastructure investments2 7,b7 the impacts to workforce requirements of the ,administration2 7,c7 the status of any reviews required by the ,national ,environmental ,policy ,act for such infrastructure investments2 7,d7 an explanation of the targeted needs addressed by such infrastructure investments2 and 7,e7 a summary of progress made towards achieving such infrastructure investments4 7#b7 ,for fiscal year #bjbg and each subsequent fiscal year1 an explanation of any changes in cost estimates and schedules for the projects listed in the assessment required by paragraph 7#a7 for the prior fiscal year4 7#c7 ,an assessment of infrastructure investments necessary in the #f to #ae fiscal years following the fiscal year of the report1 including-- 7,a7 an estimated schedule for such infrastructure investments2 and 7,b7 an explanation of the targeted needs addressed by such infrastructure investments4 7#d7 ,for fiscal year #bjbg and each subsequent fiscal year1 an explanation of any changes in cost estimates and schedules for the projects listed in the assessment required by paragraph 7#c7 for the prior fiscal year4 7#e7 ,an assessment of the infrastructure investments necessary in the #af to #be fiscal years following the fiscal year of the report1 including an explanation of the targeted needs such infrastructure investments are addressing4 7#f7 ,for
