Report to Congressional Committees: prepared and published by the Government Accounting Office (GAO); released 31 October 2015; 40 pages. http://www.gao.gov/assets/680/673470.pdf The threat posed by the proliferation of nuclear and radiological weapons remains one of the most pressing U.S. national security challenges, and these threats are evolving. Information produced by the “Over the Horizon” (OTH) initiative about future proliferation threats is intended to support long-term Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN) planning and other DNN management decisions. The Joint Explanatory Statement Accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 includes a provision for GAO to assess the National Nuclear Security Administration’s (NNSA’s) nuclear nonproliferation programs. This report (1) describes how NNSA assessed potential proliferation threats through its OTH initiative and assesses the limitations, if any, in the process used by the initiative and (2) examines the extent to which NNSA used information about the potential threats assessed through the OTH initiative in DNN organization and planning decisions. GAO analyzed NNSA documentation on the OTH initiative and NNSA planning documents. GAO also interviewed DOE and NNSA officials, DOE national laboratory representatives, and external subject matter experts and external validators in peer review groups involved in OTH activities.

  • Monthly Economic & Commercial
    Embassy of India Tehran *** No.TEH/COM/201/1/2016 10th February, 2016 ECONOMIC AND COMMERCIAL REPORT January 2016 Iran: 1.1 Iranian Energy Minister Hamid Chitchian announced that a number of electricity generation projects, worth €28 billion, are planned to be offered to foreign investors. New power plants will add 47,000 to 50,000 megawatts (MV) to Iran’s current electricity generation capacity in the course of ten years. To meet the ten-year target $5 billion of investment per year will be required in generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Iranian Deputy Energy Minister Houshang Falahatian announced that contracts to set up solar and wind power plants, generating 1000 megawatts of electricity, will be concluded by March 19, 2016 which marks the end of current Iranian calendar year. The Iranian Energy Ministry offers incentives to companies that will make investment in the generation of electricity from clean energy resources in the country. The incentive, which is the long-term purchase of the generated electricity, is granted to both Iranian and foreign companies. 1.2 Seyed Mohsen Qamsari, the director for international affairs at the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) elaborated on Iran’s plans of selling oil in post-sanctions era. Main strategies of Iran to boost oil exports are finding new customers, resuming negotiations with old customers and buying refineries abroad. Iran has repeatedly announced to raise oil output by 500,000 barrels per day (bpd) post sanctions, and another 500,000 bpd shortly after that. As crude market is oversupplied by 2.5 million to 3 million bpd, prices may be further affected by Iran’s plan to add more oil in the market.
