Manhattan Project Sites, Special Resource Study/ Environmental Assessment, Finding of No Significant Impact - September 2010

The purpose of this study is to comply with the Manhattan Project National Historical Park Study Act (Public Law 108-340), passed in 2004, which directed the Secretary of the Interior to "conduct a study on the preservation and interpretation of historic sites of the Manhattan Project for potential inclusion in the National Park System."

The Manhattan Project was a highly significant chapter in America's history that expanded scientific research, developed new technologies, and changed the role of the United States in the world community. This focused effort, combining military and scientific resources and involving hundreds of thousands of workers at multiple sites, was kept secret and out of public view for the duration of the project.
