Klotz to Visit Kansas City Plant Tuesday

National Nuclear Security Administration chief Frank Klotz will make his first visit to the Kansas City Plant this week, helping complete the move to a new home for the agency’s main non-nuclear production efforts. Klotz will visit the plant Tuesday, which coincides with the end of Honeywell Federal Manufacturing & Technologies’ highly-scripted 18-month move from the plant’s aging Bannister Federal Complex home to a new facility about eight miles away. Klotz is expected to ceremonially help complete the move and also address employees in an all-hands meeting. The visit mark’s Klotz’s sixth to a site across the weapons complex since he was confirmed by the Senate in April. He’s already visited Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories as well as the Nevada National Security Site, the Pantex Plant and the Y-12 National Security Complex.
