FY 2019 INL SITE SUSTAINABILITY PLAN
- Idaho National Laboratory
The mission of the Department of Energy (DOE) is to ensure the security and prosperity of the United States by addressing its energy, environmental, and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions. This FY 2019 Idaho National Laboratory Site Sustainability Plan (SSP) was developed to enable and sustain Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL’s) core capabilities, including advancing nuclear energy, enabling clean energy deployment, and securing and modernizing critical infrastructure. In 2018, transitions with respect to the purpose and application of sustainability continued. On May 17, 2018, Executive Order (EO) 13834, “Efficient Federal Operations,” was issued, which directs agencies to focus priorities on statutory sustainability requirements. The new order requires further guidance and implementation instructions, both of which are forthcoming. Fiscal year (FY) 2019 is expected to be a year of transition due to the new implementing instructions and other changes in guidance. The evolving priorities for sustainability are being incorporated into planning for FY 2019 and beyond as noted in this SSP. EO 13834 changes were considered in completing planned sustainability work at the end of FY 2018. INL remains responsible for existing directives, instructions, and requirements. From energy reduction to ensuring a reliable power supply, all sustainable activities support energy resiliency and by default, make INL a more resilient institution. The intent of this SSP is to provide the overall sustainability strategy for INL during FY 2019 and provide a status of FY 2018 performance to the DOE goals. The FY 2018 performance status is derived from data input to the DOE Sustainability Dashboard (Dashboard).
