No Classified Materials Missing at Oak Ridge

Officials at the U.S. Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee have said that an inventory has found no missing classified items, the Associated Press reported today (see GSN, Aug. 12).

The Energy Department ordered all facilities to conduct inventories of their “classified removable electronic media” last month after the reported disappearance of two computer disks from the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico. 

The Oak Ridge classified material inventory found no missing media, and other reviews at the site are set to be completed within the next few days, Energy spokesman Walter Perry said (Associated Press/USA Today, Aug. 19).
