In 2000, DOE issued an EA that evaluated the potential environmental impacts of strategies for addressing wildland fires that threaten operations at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). In 2019, DOE issued a final supplemental EA to addresses new strategies that reflect conditions that have changed at LANL since the 2000 EA was issued, including longer fire seasons, changes in vegetation, and global climate change.
