Energy Department
Transferals To Homeland Security
After the passage of the Homeland Security bill (6 USCA § 101 et seq.), several DOE functions were transferred to the HOMELAND SECURITY DEPARTMENT. These functions included activities relating to chemical/biological R&D, nuclear weapons SMUGGLING, national security, energy security and assurance, and nuclear threat assessment capability. The DOE also cooperates with the new Homeland Security Department in a variety of areas where the DOE still has primary responsibility for security, including the security of nuclear and laboratory sites and other power sources.
