one senior scientist at los alamos was quoted in the report as saying this. when i started as a young postok and later in my career as a university professor and also here at the lab, there was a social contract which basically said, you'll never get rich in science, but we treat you as adults, respect you for your commitment, and in turn you can pursue science and have fun. today this contract is badly broken, an atmosphere of distrust, rigorous control and checks. the report went on to note the increasing operational formality of being dictated by the mmsa headquarters that had contributed to a bias against experimental work and the report said without a strong experimental program, the quality of scientific and engineering at the laboratories will be at risk, as will the core mission of these laboratories. since this report came out last year, are you aware of anything that nnsa has done to repair the distrust and the damaged relationships that the report outlines, both with the directors and with the scientists at our national labs? >> thank you for the q

unless you're he was born here and t o y n a s d went to los alamos grade school in a file a month after that he enlisted with the marines before september eleventh of mighty . good to have defeated i had to give my written consent because he was just seventeen and a half he made up a nice get out and he got that's the legal age for a roman in the us army he made the iraq war began on march twentieth and you don. on the twenty eighth just eight days later the soldiers came to see me. i mean. they called me at work and i came home. and they said mr suarez your son is a hero but you know he died tonight in the battlefield they were iraqi soldiers shot him in the head. i swear to those words destroyed my life. but that is the three days later a journalist told me. so you said mr suarez they lied to you and your son wasn't killed by the enemy so he was killed by friendly fire into explain what happened and he. face. it during the night of march twenty sixth many planes struck and twenty thousand cluster bombs. you see it on march twenty seventh my son's unit marched on baghdad. and he steppe

the -- at los alamos. the committee is aware of the increasingly auto active material at los alamos. as a result, our bill strongly supports accelerating the cleanup efforts there providing a total of $215 million for cleanup at the site. the bill increases funding $30 million or 45% above the fiscal year 2012 level. that makes the increase for los alamos the largest site expenditure increase across all the cleanups in our bill. but understandably, of course, you'd like more we look forward to working with the member and see what we could do to be of additional assistance. i'd be happy to yield to the ranking member. mr. visclosky: i would add my words to his and would want to work with the gentleman as well as the former speaker from new mexico. they have a serious problem they are trying to address. my concern is the problem we have with management at the department and this would, i think, complicate that problem given the increase that nnsa has but, again, understand what the gentleman's trying to do,

and i live in santa fe, new mexico, downwind from los alamos, this was a natural one for us. and we brought -- we had the luxury and the privilege of bringing in the iranians, the koreans, it was three meetings and we put meditation cushions in the room without saying a word. and there were delegates from many cultures in our meeting. every break, every lunch break, those cushions were filled. and we never said a word about it. and the delegates would come back to the negotiations and our negotiations are very open spades. it's one of the things we do differently. and they would be renewed in some way. even if they'd never sat and meditated for 20 minutes in their lives. and we never suggested they do that. so i had to mention that. we -- one of the techniques that we're testing is futures planning. so we're using scenario building as well. but i think we do it in a little bit different way. what we do is ask those delegates. we say please put the victimization that we're all going through, victimization in the present and the past aside. let's just see if we can come up with

as we consider nuclear issues, i consider all of my colleagues to reach out to both sandea and los alamos for objective, reliable information. the second i want to emphasize this is an extremely important hearing. the senate appropriations committee has already approved legislation on the interim nuclear waste storage. it is my understanding that provision is within the jurisdiction of this subcommittee and this committee like many of the blue ribbon commission recommendations. we are trying to start over with a clean slate. so i think we should proceed with a regular order whenever possible. i know the senate energy committee also has a strong interest and i believe we should work cooperatively with them. nuclear waste policy has a poor history in congress as evidenced by congress cutting short the site selection process and what goes around, comes around. as new mexico's attorney general, i had a similar experience having to litigate against the department of energy over the waste isolation. we were not fighting over the facility itself, but d.o.e.'s go-it-alone process and congress's f

he was the guy that got the los alamos labs up and they knew what they were doing and there's nothing that we can't learn from them today. >> good evening. my name is james bailey and i'm from the evening division at university in springfield, massachusetts. my question this evening is for there telio asand mr. ulliot. in the world of high finance and technology where you have government regulation and great results and then the world of stuff in which you r heavy regulation and poll results. how do you fit in the world that works, neither stuff nor technology into that -- into that theory. do you consider it to be highly regulated or lightly regulated and how would you change the regulatory scheme and to make it better, more productive, et cetera? >>. >> well, i would be in favor of going back to the 1950s e, '60s regulation in the world of stuff, and i think even if you were in favor of government doing things there are many cases where the government regulations are stopping governments from being able to do things they would like to do. i had conversations with people in the obama

it's not all just because we're laying off 400 people at lo los alamos. you're seeing people scared and not doing -- you're going to worry about your 401(k)s. you're also going to worry when your wife or husband loses his or her job. >> let me ask one clarifying question on that and one final round before break. could i ask, is this more right than wrong? i realize sequestration is very complica complicated. is the following statement at least most mostly right? that next year the typical federal agency, if sequestration occurs, is going to have to find 15% reductions, 12 to 12% reductions in its work force expenditure? meaning that since you're usually not going to fire people -- >> you can't. it's very hard. >> and since you can only slow hire so much, this basically meaning up to two months of furlough. isn't that one way to understand the implications of sequestration? >> yes, and you can't reduce people's pay in the federal government. okay. that's against the law. where you are, gs-14, level three, that's where you stay. at some point you're the man

i, myself, just two weeks ago visited both the sandina national labs and los alamos national labs in new mexico with of the director of both labs, and i will be going to livermore to talk to the management at livermore about the set of problems among others and what we can do about them. and i've talked to secretary chu about it with administrator dogestino and the understand there is a problem and they are determined as i am to address it. obviously, we have to maintain the quality of the science and engineering at our national defense laboratories and excess of micromanagement is obviously not contributing to the attractiveness of the continuing for the brightest scientists and engineers at the labs. so, we are determined to fix that. >> thank you very much for the report. that is very encouraging news and perhaps i can follow-up offline with some of the details. i am so pleased that you were taking responsibility for this issue. as you know, i'm very interested in initial confinement confusion, and i am aware that both you and dr. coonan for science are instrumental in calling for

along with colleagues at the los alamos national laboratory, he's been modeling how fire behaves when it burns beetle-killed timber. >> the first scenario i'll show you is a green forest that the bark beetles haven't impacted. and what you see is pretty typical, what we might expect to see a typical fire spread. there's some torching here and there, a little crown fire run going on. and then, we compare that to the second simulation, which shows this really broad, high level of mortality of mountain pine needle outbreak. we notice the fire rate of spread increases. it's about double. we see there's a lot more continuous combustion in these simulations. >> reporter: a third simulation shows a beetle-damaged area after several years have passed and the needles have fallen to the forest floor. some say forests need to be thinned and dead trees removed to reduce fire danger. but that's expenve, and such plans often draw heated opposition from environmental groups. douglas rideout is a professor of forest economics at c.s.u. >> the government has spent and is spending substantial amounts o
