Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[Matlock’s] account of Reagan’s achievement as the nation’s diplomat in chief is a public service.”—The New York Times Book Review “Engrossing . . . authoritative . . . a detailed and reliable narrative that future historians will be able to draw on to illuminate one of the most dramatic periods in modern history.”—Los Angeles Times Book Review In Reagan and Gorbachev, Jack F. Matlock, Jr., a former U.S. ambassador to the U.S.S.R. and principal adviser to Ronald Reagan on Soviet and European affairs, gives an eyewitness account of how the Cold War ended. Working from his own papers, recent interviews with major figures, and unparalleled access to the best and latest sources, Matlock offers an insider’s perspective on a diplomatic campaign far more sophisticated than previously thought, waged by two leaders of surpassing vision. Matlock details how Reagan privately pursued improved U.S.-U.S.S.R. relations even while engaging in public saber rattling. When Gorbachev assumed leadership, however, Reagan and his advisers found a willing partner in peace. Matlock shows how both leaders took risks that yielded great rewards and offers unprecedented insight into the often cordial working relationship between Reagan and Gorbachev. Both epic and intimate, Reagan and Gorbachev will be the standard reference on the end of the Cold War, a work that is critical to our understanding of the present and the past.

This book was released on 2009-06-21 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the Manhattan Project and continuing through the Cold War, the United States government constructed and operated a massive industrial complex to produce and test nuclear weapons and related technologies. When the Cold War ended, most of this complex was shut down permanently or placed on standby, and the United States government began a costly, long-term effort to clean up the materials, wastes, and environmental contamination resulting from its nuclear materials production. In 1989, Congress created the Office of Environmental Management (EM) within the Department of Energy (DOE) to manage this cleanup effort. Although EM has already made substantial progress, the scope of EM's future cleanup work is enormous. Advice on the Department of Energy's Cleanup Technology Roadmap: Gaps and Bridges provides advice to support the development of a cleanup technology roadmap for EM. The book identifies existing technology gaps and their priorities, strategic opportunities to leverage needed research and development programs with other organizations, needed core capabilities, and infrastructure at national laboratories and EM sites that should be maintained, all of which are necessary to accomplish EM's mission.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state of Wyoming is proud of the role that it played in deterring the threat that the former Soviet Union posed. This involved the development and deployment of Atlas nuclear missiles during the early days of the cold war. These missile sites were on high alert during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Our servicemen maintained these sites by using vast amounts of trichloroethylene, TCE, to clean rocket fuel lines. These soldiers had no idea that decades later that practice would create a serious negative environmental legacy. Today there is groundwater contamination from the TCE. Seven of these Atlas Missile sites are around the city of Cheyenne area, and they have varying degrees of groundwater contamination. According to the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, Atlas Site 4's TCE concentrations in the groundwater exceed 240,000 parts per billion, well above a safe drinking limit of 5 parts per billion. The Atlas site plume of TCE is around 12 miles long and 3 miles wide. According to the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, it is "one of, if not the largest TCE plume in all of the country." The Army Corps of Engineeers has since constructed a water treatment plant that ensures that Cheyenne's water is clean and safe, and has provided granulated activated carbon systems for private landowners who use well water. Wyoming isn't the only State that has cold war legacy environmental problems. Many States, especially in the West, have quite a few sites associated with the cold war. The Department of Defense, though, has an obligation to leave States like Wyoming whole; to not only provide for our nation's safety, but also to restore the environment of the communities.

Book excerpt: The creation of atomic weapons and the buildup of the Cold War nuclear arsenal in America has left an environmental cleanup legacy of enormous cost and scope -- it is the largest environment cleanup program in the world. 2 The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), which is responsible for the cleanup of America's nuclear weapons complex, estimates the total cost of the cleanup over several decades at $264 billion. DOE's recent annual budgets for the cleanup have averaged about $6 billion --four times the size of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund program. The program involves more than 100 sites, although about 16 large sites in 13 states are of primary concern. Over the past 16 years, states have been working jointly with DOE to complete cleanup of the nuclear weapons complex in a way that protects the citizens, workforce, and environment in and around the sites. However, despite some notable accomplishments and successes, a number of issues between the states and DOE persist, and hurdles to timely and effective cleanup remain.
