Documentation and assessment of the history of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Livermore facility, and site CA-SJO-173H, the Carnegie town site at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Site 300, Alameda and San Joaquin Counties, California

摘要

This report examines the historic potential of two properties of the US Department of Energy's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL): the facility itself and a known historic archeological site, CA-SJO-173H, the Carnegie town site, contained within LLNL Site 300 in San Joaquin County, California. The history and development of LLNL is presented in Section 3 of the report, while Section 4 is devoted to the Carnegie historic site. Section 5 discusses aspects of the LLNL Livermore Site, as well as the Carnegie town site, in relation to the criteria for eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places contained in 36 CFR 60.4. Preliminary evaluations of National Register eligibility are presented. The recommendations contained in Section 6 define an appropriate avenue to permit the Department of Energy to consult with the State Historic Preservation Office, culminating in Determinations of Eligibility and Effect, if necessary, for the properties in question.
