Ben Nelson: “I think you're doing what you need to do.”

I firmly agree with the importance of oversight because we are in a government-owned/contractor-operated situation, there are substantial liabilities.

It is encouraging to know that there is that effort at coordination and collaboration because if there is any quick way to lose opportunity or to miss optimization, it is everyone going off on their own way.

If there were trust, then it would be much easier for the oversight to move away from transactional to more directional.

The LEP for the B61 gravity bomb... is critical. It's an aging weapon and we need to have a LEP underway.
