Details of Fiscal Year 2011 fee determinations for National Nuclear Security Administration sites have begun to trickle out, though information on exactly how much contractors have earned has not been released. At the NNSA’s Pantex Plant, contractor B&W Pantex said it earned its highest rating from the NNSA, receiving a 95.93 percent mark from the agency and an “outstanding” determination for its work in FY2011, but it did not say how much it received in fee from the agency. Pantex spokesman Greg Cunningham said in a statement that the plant completed 112 percent of baseline deliverables during the year, including 109 percent of deliverables involved with the W76 refurbishment, 120 percent of scheduled dismantlements, and 99 percent of surveillance units. It also completed the dismantlement of the B53 bomb nearly a year ahead of schedule.
Lawrence Livermore received an “excellent” rating for mission work and a “very good” rating for operations and institutional management, according to a memo to LLNL employees from Director Parney Albright obtained by NW&M Monitor. Albright said that the lab received its third straight “award term” incentive, which adds another year to contractor Lawrence Livermore National Security LLC’s contract to run the lab, but did not reveal the lab’s overall rating or fee in his memo. Albright said that the lab achieved 19 of 21 “stretch” incentive targets (11 in mission, four in operations and four in institutional management), but did not say what targets the lab missed.
