It's no secret that Bechtel Nevada (aka Bechtel and Lockheed) are the reason
why oil is still being used as a fuel. It's also no secret that Bechtel
Nevada is in massive conflict of interest. And it's also no secret that
Bechtel Nevada is sequestering the extraterrestrial saucer at Groom Lake.

Bechtel Nevada


Three companies make up the Bechtel Nevada team: Bechtel Nevada
Corporation; Johnson Controls Nevada, Inc.; and Lockheed Martin Nevada
Technologies, Inc.
Bechtel Nevada manages operations at the Nevada Test Site and its related
facilities and laboratories. Besides its work for DOE's Nevada Operations
Office, Bechtel Nevada partners with the Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories
on many projects. Bechtel Nevada also works on projects for other federal
agencies such as the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), NASA,
intelligence agencies, and the U.S. Air Force, Army, and Navy.

Bechtel Nevada is organized into four Programs to perform work: Stockpile
Stewardship, Environmental Management, National Security Response, and
Defense and Civil Technologies. Bechtel Nevada’s Strategic Development group
assists DOE Nevada and the Bechtel Nevada Programs in coordinating new
business development. Organizations interested in using the Nevada Test Site
for projects should contact the appropriate Strategic Development
representatives.

More than half of Bechtel Nevada's employees work in the Las Vegas area or
at the nearby Nevada Test Site.(Editorial comment: Groom Lake) The company
has satellite offices in Livermore, California (Livermore Operations) and
Los Alamos, New Mexico (Los Alamos Operations) as well as the Special
Technologies Laboratory in Santa Barbara, California. Bechtel Nevada also
operates the Remote Sensing Laboratory at Nellis Air Force Base and the
Remote Sensing Laboratory at Andrews Air Force Base near Washington, D.C.

Bechtel Nevada's parent corporations

Bechtel is a San Francisco-based entity that began nearly a century ago as
a builder of railroads in the West. The firm has evolved into an
internationally recognized company with a scope of expertise that allows it
to routinely handle some of history's most complex and challenging projects.
Bechtel provides premier technical, management, and directly-related
services to develop, manage, engineer, build, and operate installations
worldwide. In the 1930s, Bechtel played a major role in the construction of
Hoover Dam in Nevada. More recently, the company helped complete the 39-mile
Channel Tunnel connecting England and France. When the oil wells in Kuwait
burned out of control, Bechtel mobilized nearly 10,000 workers from 35
nations to douse the fires before billions of dollars of petroleum went up
in flames and continued to pollute the skies.
Lockheed Martin was formed in March 1995 with the merger of two of the
world's premier technology companies, Lockheed Corporation and Martin
Marietta Corporation. The company recently merged with Loral Corporation, an
electronics and systems integration business. Lockheed Martin is the world's
largest defense, DOE, and NASA contractor. Headquartered in Bethesda,
Maryland, Lockheed Martin is the strategic leader in the aerospace industry
with core businesses in aeronautics, electronics, energy and environment,
information and technology services, materials, space systems, launch
vehicles, and missiles. In addition to DOE's Nevada Test Site, Lockheed
Martin manages work at the Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico and
California; the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant, and Oak
Ridge K-25 Site in Tennessee; the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory; and
the Pinellas Plant in Florida.
Johnson Controls is the leading global supplier of technology-driven
facility management solutions for government and commercial clients. The
scope of its integrated facility management capabilities includes
consulting, aerospace engineering, facility and equipment management, health
care, education, and technical fields. Founded in 1855, the Milwaukee-based
company is also a global market leader in control systems, automotive
seating, automotive batteries, and plastic packaging. The company recently
secured a major contract to manage the facilities at six United Kingdom
Atomic Energy Authority sites.
