Amended Record of Decision (ROD): Amended Record of Decision for the Final Environmental
Impact Statement for the Conveyance and Transfer of Certain Land Tracts Administered by the U.S. Department of Energy and Located
at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos and Santa Fe Counties, New Mexico, (DOE/EIS-0293, October 1999) (August 17, 2005).
The U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) is amending the Record of Decision (ROD) for the
Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Conveyance and Transfer
of Certain Land Tracts Administered by the Department of Energy and Located at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos and Santa
Fe Counties, New Mexico, DOE/EIS-0293 (Conveyance and Transfer EIS) to reflect changes in the need to retain a certain portion of a
land tract withheld earlier due to potential national security mission requirements for a health and safety buffer area relating to on-going
operations. Specifically, DOE/NNSA has reassessed its need for a certain portion of a tract to serve as a health and safety buffer area
for current and post-operations cleanup of its tritium-related activities at Los Alamos National Laboratory's (LANL's) Technical Area 21
(TA-21). DOE/NNSA no longer needs to retain a 32.3-acre portion of the Airport Tract located along the south side of State Road 502 for
this purpose. For further information concerning the conveyance or transfer of land tracts or this amended ROD, contact: Elizabeth Withers,
NEPA Compliance Officer, Los Alamos Site Office, National Nuclear Security Administration, 528 35th Street, Los Alamos, NM 87004
Telephone (505) 667-8690. Additional information regarding the DOE NEPA process and activities is also available on the Internet through
the DOE NEPA web site at: http://www.eh.doe.gov/nepa . Copies of the Conveyance and
Transfer EIS and the 2000 ROD are also available on the NEPA Web site, along with this and one other amended RODs.
