Los Alamos National Lab

This undated aerial photo shows the Los Alamos National laboratory in Los Alamos, N.M. The federal agency that oversees the nation's nuclear weapons stockpile is expected this week to release a report on the best site option for the United States as it looks to ramp up production of the plutonium cores that trigger nuclear warheads. The contenders are the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico and the Savannah River Site in South Carolina. At stake are hundreds of jobs and billions of dollars in federal funding to either revamp existing buildings or construct new factories. (The Albuquerque Journal via AP)
