Tonopah Test Range (TTR), played important roles in the advancement of the nation’s nuclear testing program. From 1951 through 1992, the sites were used by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and its predecessor agency, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to conduct atmospheric and underground nuclear weapons tests and chemical explosion tests of plutonium-bearing materials. In addition, safety experiments and storage-transportation tests were conducted to evaluate the safety of nuclear weapons in accident scenarios. Today, the DOE Environmental Management (EM) Nevada Program is addressing the remaining contaminated sites and conducting any required monitoring of closed sites under its purview.
