Nuclear Watch Sues Over Missing Plutonium Study | Santa Fe News

A watchdog group is suing the federal government over a missing study on plutonium pit production at nuclear labs, accusing officials of a massive coverup. The Freedom of Information Act request, filed in December, demanded documents assessing safety and management at Los Alamos and Savannah River sites — due by mid-December — but nothing has been released. The group’s director calls it a dangerous rollback of safety standards and transparency, with no official exemptions cited for withholding. The Department of Energy hasn’t responded, leaving the public in the dark — and the lawsuit could reshape how sensitive nuclear information is handled in the future.
