Perhaps the “environmental review” NNSA hosts will provide an update to Tracy residents regarding the plan to SIGNIFICANTLY increase the number of Site 300 high explosive tests per year, and, the plan to SIGNIFICANTLY increase the energy maximum limit of high explosives testing at Site 300.
It will be interesting to watch the NNSA hosts at this Tracy, CA December 8, 2022 City Hall meeting attempt to walk back 1997 Site 300 environmental pledges described in the link below, that were suppose to "protect the environment", from "high-explosive materials, including noxious gases, aerosolized and chunky particulate matter, and impulse noise", including impacts to "future residential development in an area less than a mile away."
For those that might be unaware, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) environmental law, both the LLNL main site, and Site 300 are listed as Superfund sites.

Site 300 is a great place to do experiments. I hope they can get above the 100 lbs limit.
“Site 300 is a great place to do experiments. I hope they can get above the 100 lbs limit.”
Sure, as long as Tracy and other nearby community downwinders get the airborne toxic soot and have the watershed impacts, and not Livermore. Got it.

Can and should all Site 300 operations be moved to the Nevada Test Site (NTS) over a 5-10 year period?
Whom are you asking? People who actually might answer knowledgeably (who don't post here), or the standard rabble (who do)?
