Environmental Assessments
In October 2025, the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) issued an environmental assessment (EA) and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for Aerial Herbicide Application for Wildland Fire Fuels Reduction at the Nevada National Security Site (DOE/EA-2303). The EA assesses the potential environmental impacts of aerial application of select herbicides that prevent germination of grass seeds and provide some control of grasses already growing to reduce wildland fire fuel loads at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) located in Nye County, Nevada.
