I was pleased to see many of our scientists and engineers receive national awards and recognition. I was equally pleased to see the significant advances that help us operate the lab more effectively and efficiently, from bringing on-line a commercial financial management system to tearing down and decontaminating outdated buildings and spaces. I hope you can share that emotion as you read the achievements of the women and men of Sandia during 1999. This issue of Labs Accomplishments continues that tradition. The work was accomplished mostly during the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 1999.
Key organizations contributing to each accomplishment are in parentheses.
Abbreviations at the end of most entries indicates in which Labs' strategic business unit or strategic management unit the work was conducted.
