DOE Releases First Annual Report on the State of the DOE National Laboratories

The Department of Energy (DOE) released the first annual report on the state of the DOE national laboratories.  The report provides a comprehensive overview of the DOE national labs and their associated science and technology programs, management approaches, and strategic planning efforts.  The report was prepared in response to a recommendation from the congressionally-mandated Commission to Review the Effectiveness of the National Energy (CRENEL) that DOE should better communicate to Congress and the public the value the national labs provide to the nation.  DOE plans to update this report annually.
