The subcommittee met at 10:04 a.m. in room SD-192, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Dianne Feinstein (chairwoman) pre- siding. Present: Senators Feinstein, Heinrich, Kennedy, and Hagerty. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY NATIONAL NUCLEAR SECURITY ADMINISTRATION STATEMENT OF HON. JILL HRUBY, UNDER SECRETARY FOR NUCLEAR SECURITY AND ADMINISTRATOR ACCOMPANIED BY: HON. MARVIN L. ADAMS, PH.D., DEPUTY ADMINISTRATOR FOR DE- FENSE PROGRAMS HON. COREY HINDERSTEIN, DEPUTY ADMINISTRATOR FOR DE- FENSE NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION ADMIRAL JAMES F. CALDWELL, JR., DIRECTOR, NAVAL NUCLEAR PROPULSION PROGRAM, DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR DIANNE FEINSTEIN Senator FEINSTEIN. The Subcommittee on Energy and Water De- velopment will come to order. Today's hearing is going to review the National Nuclear Security Administration's fiscal year 2023 budget request. So thank you, Administrator Hruby and your colleagues for join- ing us today. The budget request for NNSA (National Nuclear Security Admin- istration) totals $21.4 billion. That's a $754.4 million or a 3.6 per- cent increase over fiscal year 2022. I can say it's an all-time high once again. The Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Programs, which success- fully reduce nuclear dangers, are essentially held flat. For such ac- complished programs, I would expect to see some greater invest- ment but just a few key nonproliferation achievements include the elimination of over 7,230 kilograms of weapons-usable nuclear ma- terial from 48 countries, deployment of 930 counter-nuclear smug- gling systems across 79 countries, and compilation of the 238 Ce- sium Irradiator Replacement Project, their removals from U.S. hos- pitals and universities.
