Notice of 229 Boundary for the Fort
Saint Vrain Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation
SUMMARY:
AGENCY:
Department of Energy (DOE).
Notice of 229 Boundary for the
Fort Saint Vrain (FSV) Independent
Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).
ACTION:
Notice is hereby given that
the U. S. Department of Energy,
pursuant to Section 229 of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, as amended,
published in the Federal Register on
August 26, 1963 (28 FR 8400), prohibits
the unauthorized entry, and the
unauthorized introduction of weapons
or dangerous materials into or upon the
following described facilities of the Fort
Saint Vrain Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation of the United States
Department of Energy.
The FSV ISFSI is located on part of
the original FSV Nuclear Generating
Station site which is about three and
one-half miles northwest of Platteville,
Colorado. Platteville is located in Weld
County and is about 35 miles north of
Denver. The FSV ISFSI street address is
17122 19.5 Weld County Road,
Platteville, Colorado. The ISFSI is
located approximately 1500 feet
northeast of the Public Service of
Colorado fossil-fueled, power plant
building. The facility occupies 10 acres
more or less. The 229 Boundary of this
facility is indicated by a combination of
chain link fence and chain link gates
which surround the facility.

The Office of High Energy
Physics (HEP) in the Department of
Energy (DOE) invites interested parties
to provide input on topical areas in
which progress in quantum information
science can inform high energy physics,
and on contributions that the high
energy physics community can make to
advancing quantum information
science.
DATES: Written comments and
information are requested on or before
February 12, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons may
submit comments by email only.
Comments must be sent to QISandHEPRFI@science.doe.gov with the subject
line ‘‘Quantum Information Science and
HEP RFI’’. Any attachments must be in
one of the following formats: ASCII;
Word; RTF; or PDF.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Quantum
information science (QIS) encompasses
novel approaches to fundamental
science and to applications such as
sensing, communications, simulation,
and computing that are enabled by
understanding and manipulation of the
uniquely quantum phenomena of
superposition, entanglement, and
squeezing. Within high energy physics,
DOE’s emphasis is on employing new
perspectives and capabilities offered or
enabled by QIS to address the science
drivers identified by the community in
the May 2014 ‘‘Building for Discovery’’
report of the Particle Physics Project
Prioritization Panel (P5).1 Focus areas
include quantum computing and
foundational QIS, quantum sensor
technology, and novel experiments
exploiting quantum entanglement. QIS
methods and concepts are proving
increasingly important in advancing
fundamental understanding in, e.g., the
search for dark matter, emergence of
space-time, and the black hole
information paradox. Likewise, these
advances contribute to development of
QIS including quantum error correction
and thermalization. Because the field is
interdisciplinary and progressing
rapidly, effective research programs may
require collaborative groups with

appropriate combinations of knowledge,
capabilities, and experience in quantum
information, particle physics, and/or
other related fields. Several DOE HEP
reports provide additional information
pertaining to QIS impacts on and from
HEP.2 3 4
The U.S. Department of Energy’s
Office of High Energy Physics in the
Office of Science seeks input from
stakeholders regarding potential
research and development in QIS that
addresses scientific and technological
needs in high energy physics, and
regarding capabilities in the high energy
physics community that could
contribute to the advancement of QIS.
The information received in response to
this RFI will inform and be considered
by the Office of High Energy Physics in
program planning and development.
Please note that this RFI is not a
Funding Opportunity Announcement, a
Request for Proposal, or other form of
solicitation or bid of DOE to fund
potential research and development
work in QIS.
Request for information: The objective
of this request for information is to
gather input about opportunities for
research and development at the
intersection of quantum information
science and high energy physics, to
inform Federal efforts in this area. The
questions below are intended to assist in
the formulation of comments, and
should not be considered as a limitation
on either the number or the issues that
may be addressed in such comments.
The DOE Office of High Energy
Physics is specifically interested in
receiving input pertaining to any of the
following questions:
(1) Fundamental Science
What are the key questions,
opportunities, needs, and challenges for
QIS to contribute to progress in the
following topics? What kinds of
experiments or calculations are needed
to advance understanding? How can
research in these areas contribute to the
advancement of QIS?
a. Quantum gravity and emergence of
space-time
b. Tensor networks, gauge symmetries,
and field theories
