5. Activity Description:
   A. Title: Nuclear Emergency Search Team
   B. Description:
        The Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSL) supports routine
        scientific and engineering functions and emergency
        response requirements.  RSL support work involves the
        separate areas of nuclear data analysis, multispectral
        remote sensing, aircraft scheduling, geographic data
        collection, inventory control, archiving, systems design,
        scientific and engineering analysis, photographic image
        processing, and communications.

        The objective of the Nuclear Emergency Search Team is to
        search for, identify, assess, and disable any nuclear weapon
        directed against the United States for purposes of terrorism,
        coercion, or extortion.
        This is a multi-agency effort, primarily involving DOE, DoD,
        FBI and FEMA.


  D. DOE Strategic Goal/Objective:
      EG&G/EM's Nuclear Emergency Search Team provides specialized
      personnel and resources to search for, identify, assess, and
      disable any nuclear weapon directed against the United States
      for purposes of terrorism, coercion, or extortion.
      NEST supports several of DOE's national security objectives
      (goals) by safely and securely dismantling nuclear weapons,
      maintaining nuclear weapons technology and competence that is
      responsive to national security needs, and achieving continual
      enhancement of the technology infrastructure and core
      competencies related to the national security mission.

   E. Customer:
      Although the Nuclear Emergency Search Team supports various
      customers, its primary customer is the Department of Energy Nevada
      Operations Office.

   H. Estimated completion Date (MO/YR or "ONGOING"): ONGOING

6. Major Items of Equipment (MIE) Acquisitions ( > $1 million)
   Does this activity qualify as an MIE? NO

The EG&G Remote Sensing Lab. is listed at:
4600 North Hollywood Blvd., Bldg. 2211
Nellis AFB.

This information is available from unclassified sources.
The ******* are mine, where contact person and phone number is
deleted. I'm pretty sure they don't have Prince Albert in a can.
