Adjustment to plutonium pit production capacity

Section 4219 of the Atomic Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2538a) is amended— (1) by amending subsection (a) to read as follows: (a) Requirements (1) Overall capacity Consistent with the requirements of the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Energy shall ensure that the nuclear security enterprise— (A) during 2021, begins production of qualification plutonium pits; (B) during 2025, produces no fewer than 10 war reserve plutonium pits; (C) during 2026, produces no fewer than 20 war reserve plutonium pits; (D) during 2027, produces no fewer than 30 war reserve plutonium pits; (E) during 2029, produces no fewer than 50 war reserve plutonium pits; and (F) during 2032 and subsequent years, produces no fewer than 80 war reserve plutonium pits. (2) Site specific full production rate targets In meeting the annual production rate requirement under paragraph (1)(F), the Secretary of Energy shall ensure that— (A) no fewer than 30 war reserve plutonium pits are produced annually at Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico; (B) no fewer than 50 war reserve plutonium pits are produced annually at the Savannah River Plutonium Processing Facility, Aiken, South Carolina; and (C) total annual production quantities exceeding 80 war reserve plutonium pits are allocated to each site as necessary to meet Department of Defense requirements.; and (2) in subsection (b), by striking 2030 and inserting 2032.
