The Energy Department’s semi-autonomous nuclear security organization has launched a new effort to develop technology to bolster future arms control agreements, and is seeking innovative concepts from industry, according to a senior Biden administration official.
The National Nuclear Security Administration (NSSA) “has established a new arms control advancement initiative to invest in next generation arms control capabilities. This initiative will allow new ideas for warhead monitoring and verification, including the establishment of a testbed and purposeful stewardship of expertise within the complex,” Jill Hruby, DoE undersecretary for nuclear security and NNSA administrator, said Thursday.
