The Task Force on DOE Nonproliferation Programs with Russia has been requested to provide appraisals and recommendations to the Secretary of Energy regarding the policy priorities established by DOE to pursue cooperative nonproliferation and nuclear safety programs with Russia, with an eye to identifying crucial program areas that may not have been addressed in the past. The Task Force should provide an assessment of the performance of DOE's programs in achieving national security and nonproliferation missions. The Task Force will tackle key questions such as: Are we achieving U.S. nonproliferation and national security goals with Russia? Given Russia's current political and economic environment, how can DOE best achieve these goals? What other practicable opportunities might exist to promote these goals? How can DOE maximize programmatic self-sustainability?
