  • Sandlan Part of First US Group to Visit Top Secret
    Sandlan part of first US group to visit top secret Krasnoyarsk-26 nuclear facility in Siberia Safety study takes Dave Carlson to underground complex By Ken Frazier Lab News Managing Editor Fourteen time zones of travel, a stay in a secret nuclear base inside a Siberian mountain, eating bear meat in the forest. It wasn't exactly a regular Sandia work week, but Dave Carlson, Man• ager of Assessment Technologies Dept. 12333, experienced it all recently as a member of the first group of American officials allowed to enter and tour the top-secret underground nuclear facilities inside a mountain near the "closed city" of Krasnoyarsk-26 in central Siberia. He was one of 13 government and contractor scientists under the aus• pices of the DOE Defense Program's Office of Special Projects to make the unique site visit. It was all part of an urgent technical effort to exchange radiochemical operational safety information and involve counterpart Russian scientists in joint safety programs. The delegation was headed by F. Charles Gilbert of the Office of Spe• cial Projects in Washington. Besides Dave, three other New Mexico scien• tists, Steve Agnew, Sam Pillay, and Harold Sullivan, all of Los Alamos National Laboratory, were also in the group. Dave's no novice at such things. He says it was his fourth trip to Rus• sia, but definitely his first time to the Krasnoyarsk-26 installation. "It was a very interesting trip," he says, with typical Sandia understatement "It was a privilege to be among the first people to go there." Traveled for 45 hours Getting there was itself a challenge.
