The enclosed documents contain the information you requested, with redactions pursuant to
5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(3), Exemption 3, 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(6), Exemption 6, and 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7(E),
Exemption 7 of the FOIA.

Exemption 3 exempts the disclosure of information that is specifically prohibited from release by
statute provided that such statute (A) requires that the matters be withheld from the public in such
a manner as to leave no discretion on the issue, or (B) establishes particular criteria for withholding
or refers to particular types of matters to be withheld.

The Atomic Energy Act (AEA) of 1954, as amended, 42 USC § 2011 et seq., is an Exemption 3
statute.  Section 148 of this Act (42 USC § 2161-2166) prohibit the disclosure of information
concerning atomic energy defense programs that is determined to be Unclassified Controlled
Nuclear Information (UCNI) pursuant to the AEA, as amended.

The portions redacted pursuant to Exemption 3 contain information about security measures for
the physical protection of nuclear materials contained in production or utilization facilities that
have been safeguarded as UCNI.

Page 3

Mr. Daniel L. Hagar                                            3                                              FOIA 21-00211-R


Disclosure of the exempt data and documents would have a significant adverse effect on the
common defense and security by significantly increasing the likelihood of theft, diversion, or
sabotage of nuclear materials.  Pursuant to 10 CFR, Part 1004.1, and to the extent permitted by
law, DOE will make available records that it is authorized to withhold under the FOIA unless it
determines that such disclosure is not in the public interest. With respect to the information
withheld pursuant to Exemption 3, the DOE has no further discretion under the FOIA or DOE
regulations to release information currently and properly classified and safeguarded as UCNI
pursuant to the AEA as amended.

Exemption 6 permits the withholding of personnel and medical files and similar files when the
disclosure of such information would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal
privacy.  The purpose of Exemption 6 is to protect individuals from the injury and embarrassment
that can result from the unnecessary disclosure of personal information.  To determine whether
disclosure would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, the public interest
in disclosure, if any, must be balanced against the privacy interests that would be invaded by
disclosure of the information.  In this case, the names and contact information of employees and
private citizens have been withheld.  Release of the information pertaining to these individuals will
cause inevitable harassment and unwarranted invasion of personal privacy for the private citizens
and could cause unwarranted scrutiny for employees by persons or entities harboring political,
philosophical, or other objections to the mission of the Nuclear Security Enterprise and our
agency.  NNSA has experienced a rise in phishing attempts as threat actors aim to obtain access to
sensitive information as well as to Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT)
networks, and release of employee names/email addresses will assist these threat actors in their
efforts to gain access and exploit the agency’s IT and OT systems. In addition, release of this
information would not shed light on the operations of the federal government since the underlying
information related to the agency’s actions is being provided.  Since its release will not reveal
anything of significance to the public, the interest in protecting against the invasion of privacy that
would result to the individuals in question far outweighs the public interest in such disclosure.

Exemption (7E) of the FOIA provides protection for all information compiled for law
enforcement purposes when release would disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement
investigations or prosecutions or would disclose guidelines for law enforcement investigations or
prosecutions if such disclosure could reasonably be expected to risk circumvention of the law. The
term “law enforcement” can include activities associated with preventing breaches to national
security.  The portions redacted pursuant to Exemption 7(E) contain information that reveals
security procedures, or vulnerability analyses and related detailed statistical input used to generate
security procedures for critical nuclear facilities.  Release of this information could cause harm by
directly revealing critical nuclear facility security procedures to the public.  The information would
also reveal to the public the limiting parameters and processes used to generate the security
procedures.  If this information were released to the public, an individual wishing to cause harm
could circumvent these security procedures in an effort to damage critical nuclear facilities.

Except as described above for Exemption 3 information, the Department of Energy (DOE)
regulations 10 CFR § 1004.1 provides that documents exempt from mandatory disclosure under
the FOIA shall be released regardless of their exempt status, unless DOE determines that disclosure
is contrary to public interest.  For the reasons described above, NNSA has determined that release
of the information described above is not in the public interest.

Pursuant to 10 CFR § 1004.7(b)(2), I am the individual responsible for the withholding of the
information mentioned above pursuant to Exemptions 3, 6, and 7(E) of the FOIA.

You may appeal the withholding of information pursuant to 10 CFR § 1004.8.  Such an appeal
must be made in writing within 90 calendar days after receipt of this letter, addressed to the
Director, Office of Hearings and Appeals, HG-1, U.S. Department of Energy, 1000 Independence
Avenue SW, L’Enfant building, Washington, DC 20585.  Your appeal must contain a concise
statement of the grounds for the appeal and a description of the relief sought.  Please submit a copy
of this letter with the appeal and clearly mark both the envelope and the letter “Freedom of
Information Appeal.” You may also submit your appeal by email (preferred method) to
[email protected], including the phrase “Freedom of Information Appeal” in the subject
line.  Thereafter, judicial review will be available to you in the District of Columbia or in the
district where (1) you reside, (2) you have your principal place of business, or (3) the Department’s
records are situated.

You may also contact me, NNSA’s FOIA Public Liaison, Office of the General Counsel, at 1-866-
747-5994, or by mail to Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration, Office
of the General Counsel, PO Box 5400, Albuquerque, NM 87185, for further assistance and to

Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex — Unmanned Aerial System Overflight
Issue: On 1/20/2021, at 1902 hours, Y-12 National Security Complex (NSC) Protective Force
(PF) reported an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) overflight.
Context: On 1/20/2021, at 1902 hours, Y-12 NSC PF reported a UAS move west to east over
the Uranium Processmg Facility construction site. There were no visible lights or markings on
the aircraft. Using thermal optics, the PF observed the aircraft to be a 4-rotor or "Quad Blade"
craft. The flight path was west to east while perfonning circles and figure-eight pattems.
Altitude was estimated to be from 500 ft. to 1000 ft. above ground level. The UAS left the
area, tuming north over the site's north ridge.
After review of video surveillance, the UAS was possibly canying a pay load beneath the craft
in a sling-type configuration. Video recording has been saved at the PF Central Alann Station.
The PF initiated appropriate response measures.
Significance: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Department of Energy
(DOE) in December 2017, directed that drone flights be restricted over all DOE facilities for
the welfare of national security. These restrictions include nuclear assembly facilities,
laboratories, and research centers.
Path Forward: Notifications have been made to local law enforcement, FAA, FBI, and the
Oak Ridge Office of the Inspector General.
Update: On 1/21/2021, at approximately 1940 hours, PF reported a UAS sighting on the
North West Tower Security Area camera. The UAS appeared to come from over the North
Ridge and traveled over the Protected Area of the site. The UAS flew west to east, then left the
site at approximately 1943 hours. Based on the camera used, night sky and the angles, PF was
unable to detennine size, color or any characteristics of the UAS. It did have lights and
appeared to be below the ridge line at one point.
At approximately 2004 hours, two UASs were sighted. Both UASs had lights and were flying
in formation one below the other. Again, from the camera view, PF could not detennine any
other characteristics. Both UASs flew out of sight from the west to the east.
At approximately 2100 hours, a third sighting occurred. One UAS was observed traveling
west from the UPF construction site to the east. The UAS left the site approximately at 2105
hours to the east and over the south ridge.

reported an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) overflight.
Context: On Thursday Evening, 1/28/2021, at 2021 hours, a Y-12 employee reported a UAS
over the east end of the Y-12 site. After establishing PF response procedures, the UAS was
moving west to east (from the Highly Enriched Uranium Processing Facility) at an altitude
estimated to be from 250 ft. to 300 ft. above ground level with green and red lights. Using
thennal optics, the PF observed the aircraft to be a fixed-wing type craft. The UAS left the
area, tuming south over the site's south ridge.
Significance: The Federal Aviation Administration and the Department of Energy in
December 2017, directed that drone flights be restlicted over all DOE facilities for the welfare
of national security. These restrictions include nuclear assembly facilities, laboratories, and

NPO Night Note, Thursday, July 1, 2021
Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex — Unmanned Aerial System Overflight
Issue: On June 30, 2021, at 2215 hours, the Y-12 National Security Complex (Y-12)
Operations Center reported an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) overflight.
Context: On Wednesday evening, June 30, 2021, at 2215 hours, a Y-12 employee reported
seeing a UAS over Building 9201-02 located in the Property Protection Area. Protective Force
(PF) patrols could not independently verify that sighting. At 2304 hours, PF reported a UAS
sighting in the vicinity of the south ridge, travelling east to west. From 2335-0006 hours, PF
obsewed as many as three UASs in various locations circling the Y-12 at varied elevations.
The UASs were described as 4-rotor or "Quad Blade" with no observed attachments. Visual
surveillance was lost at 0006 hours when the UASs disappeared traveling north towards Oak
Ridge.
No video surveillance was captured. The PF initiated appropriate response measures to include
a request for assistance from the Oak Ridge Police Depaltment, who verified the off-site
sightings in the vicinity of Union Valley Road and Commerce Park.
Significance: In December 2017, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the
Depaltment of Energy (DOE) directed that drone flights be restricted over all DOE facilities
for the welfare of national security. These restrictions include nuclear assembly facilities,
laboratories, and research centers.

Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex - Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) Overflight.
Issue: On October 8, 2021, at approximately 2055 hours, Y-12 National Security Complex
Fire Department employees reported a UAS overflight.
Context: On Friday evening, October 8, 2021, at 2055 hours, the Y-12 Fire Department called
the Operations Center to report a UAS spotted over the west side of the site. The three
witnesses could not tell if the UAS was a rotary wing or fixed wing craft. It had two flashing
lights, appeared to be about three feet in width, and estimated to be approximately 80 feet
above ground level. It passed slowly over the fire station, in a straight line, and disappeared
over the south ridge of the site. Total time was estimated at three to four minutes. There was
no video surveillance of the UAS and no further sightings.
Significance: In December 2017, the Federal Aviation Administration and the Department of
Energy (DOE) directed that drone flights be restricted over all DOE facilities for the welfare
of national security. These restrictions include nuclear assembly facilities, laboratories, and

 While waiting on the student to arrive,
 noticed something in the sky and asked “What is that?”. I looked to where he was pointing
and observed what appeared to be a “quad” copter style drone, black in color with no discernable
markings. The drone was traveling from the north and headed in a south westerly direction
directly overhead. It appeared to be 100-120 yards in altitude.


. I lost sight of the object after
approximately 30 seconds


. We did
not see the drone again.”
Both the Protective Force and the Carson County Sheriff’s department were immediately notified, but
found no activity or evidence of the UAS in the area. While the reporting employee described the drone
as having four rotors, no other distinguishing marks were seen. No other reports were received from plant
personnel, nor additional UAS activity in sighted. Additionally,

I believe it was Saturday sir. One of the Beta units thought that he had sighted a drone above the waste management
building, rather low altitude reported, &30'-40' above the building. units were dispatched to north and south ridges, no
further substantiation could be determined. I contacted in the shift to verify no further
had the Beta 3 1 believe fill out a JIT form that Proforce uses and
sighting. None were reported, however
sent it through the system as they have been instructed to do.
Due to no further verification of sighting I errantly did not proceed through the notification process as I should have. I
wanted my lack of follow-through directed solely at me sir and no one else in the PSS. Again, I offer my apologies and
will proceed with notifications regardless in the future.

would put the safety and security of the Y-12 NSC at risk.
Significance: Any involvement of UAS equipped with cameras and GPS tracking devices poses a serious risk
to the security of the Y-12 NSC. This event shows the seriousness associated with the gaining popularity of
unmanned radio and remotely controlled aircraft.

Drone Sighting
While leaving 9212 Saturday May 12 at approximately 13:15 1 caught a glimpse of a shadow on the ground that
caused me to look up. I was walking down steps that lead me down the hill towards the fire hall when I noticed a drone
hovering just above it. This drone was seemed to be black in color and about 18 to 24 inches long and either triangular
or square in shape. As walked down the walk way towards post 8 kept my eye on it noticing it traveling west through
the center of the PA at a height of 100 to 150 feet off the ground. At this time it was traveling very slowly but by the
time I got to post 8 to notify someone it had sped up and moved on out of my sight at a direction that seemed to carry it
towards UPF. I made contact with a SPO once at post 8 and made the report of what I had seen. I then wrote some
information down and helped the SPO figure out where it may be heading so they could maybe spot it. Then I was told I
could continue on with my business. I never did hear any sounds from it due to natural background noises at the plant
and couldn't see any camera located on the drone just legs that seemed to hang down that would be used for landing.
Let me know if I can be of more help?
Thanks.

NOTICE: This document has been reviewed by a Y-12 DC/RO and has been determined it to be UNCLASSIFIED and containing no IJCNt. This review does not constitute
clearance for Public Release.
Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex (NSC) — Possible Aerial Surveillance of Y-12 Plant.
Executive Summary: On 10/28/2019, Y-12 Protective Force officers reported a sighting of an aircraft flying
in a circular pattern over the Y-12 NSC. The officers estimated the aircraft flying appro.ximately 2.000 feet
above the ground. After several minutes of circling, the aircraft flew off in a westerly direction. The same
aircraft flew over the Y-12 NSC the following day, at a higher altitude.
Issue: Possible Aerial Surveillance of Y-12 Plant.
Context: On 10/28/2019, at approximately 8:30 PM, Y-12 Protective Force officers reported a fixed wing
aircraft flying in a circling pattern over the Y-12 NSC. The aircraft was described as a white Cessna plane. The
Protective Force officers estimated the craft to be at approximately 2,0()() feet above ground level, but it was
difficult to confirm the altitude during darkness. The Oak Ridge Operations Center contacted the nearest FAA
facility at McGhee Tyson Airport in nearby Knoxville, Tennessee. The airport tower confirmed they could see
the aircraft on radar but they were unable to make radio contact. After approximately 15 minutes, the aircraft
was described as flying out of the Y-12 area in a southwest direction. The local Air National Guard military
command post located at McGhee Tyson Airport was contacted and stated they had no military flights in the
area.
On 10/29/2019, at approximately I I :30 AM, Y-12 Protective Force identified another suspicious white single-
engine aircraft circling the Y-12 NSC airspace, this time at approximately 4,000 feet. The Plant Shift
Superintendents (PSS) Office researched the plane's flight history through an open-source website
(FlightRadar24.com) and was able to confirm that the aircraft (Cessna 172N Skyhawk tail number N2()4BE)
that flew over Y-12 NSC on 10/28/2019, at a much lower altitude, was the same aircraft that flew over the Y-12
NSC on 10/29/2019. The website confirmed that during the 10/28/2019 overflight. the same aircraft flew over
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) before departing the area to the southwest.
Significance: Any involvement of unplanned overflights poses a risk to the security of the Y-12 NSC.
Path Forward.

Brief Description of the Incident:
On 10/28/2019, at approximately 8:30 pm, Y-12 Protective Force officers sighted a small aircraft flying in a circular pattern
over the Y-12 NSC. The aircraft was described as a white Cessna plane- The officers estimated the altitude at 2,000 feet
but this was difficult to confirm because of the darkness. Y-12 Plant Shift Superintendent's (PSS) Office contacted the
Oak Ridge Operations Center. who in tum coordinated with local FAA. The FAA tower confirmed they had the airplane on
radar but were not able to make radio contact. After approximately 15 minutes, the airplane flew out of the Y-12 area
headed southwest. The local Atr National Guard command post stated there were no military flights in the area-
On 10/29/2019, at approximately 11130 am, Y-12 Protective Force Identified another small aircraft again flying in a circular
pattern over the Y-12 NSC. This time the attitude was approximately 4,000 feet The PSS Office was able to identify the
plane through an open-source website which tracks aircraft tn real tjme, and confirmed that the plane was a Cessna 172N,
tail number N204BE In doing further research, the PSS was able to determine this was the same plane that had flown
over the site on 10/28/2019. The website, which also contained a history of the airplane's flight pattern, showed that the
airplane had ctrcled over the nearby Oak Ridge National Laboratory after leavtng the Y-12 airspace

We have experienced back to back overflights of a private general aviation aircraft on 10/28/19 and 10/29/19, both
being the same aircraft — tail number N204BE, a Cessna 172N
used flightradar24.com to track the flights,
and the PSS Office has performed screen captures of the flight routes. It is possible that these overflights were
performed with nefarious intent. This is why you are receiving this information. I am attaching several documents
showing the overflight information referenced above, including information on the aircraft registration and
ownership. At the time of the transmittal of this email, the aircraft is flying at 23 degrees on the compass, just southeast
of Columbus, OH.

Aircraft/UAS Overflight Actions
(Hostile and Non-Hostile)
The following Operator Aid is designed to assist the PSS in the handling of unscheduled.
suspicious and potentially dangerous aircraft overflights
NOTE: The airspace over Y-12 Plant is not restricted. As such, aircraft will routinely
traverse Y-12 with no impact. This Operator Aid is intended to provide guidance
for aircraft that are reported to be abnormal (e.g., low altitude, abnormal flight
patterns). For National Guard, T VA, Natural Gas Line and Lifestar overflights,
OROC usually notifies PSS prior to the flight commencing.
NOTE: The planned use of UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems, otherwise known as UAV
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or "Drones") is covered in procedure Y 15-050
PSS ACTIONS:

b. Location and direction of flight, one or multiple passes, circling,
e. Altitude if it is accurately judged (see attached chart)
Contact OROC to verify overflight is knovvn to be in area.
If OROC cannot confirm identity of overflight, call
210 confirm identity of aircraft.
at
Ifthis is an approved over flight then notify ProForce with confirmation.
If overflight is unscheduled and unapproved, contact ProForce Shift Captain to
coordinate determination of hostile intent (see Page 2). Also, make the following
notifications:
a. OROC
b. Y-12 SS&ES Operations Manager
or designee
e. NNSA/NPO Security - Tony Dull (primary) or Dan Reeves (alternate)
d. IF Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), notify IOSC in addition to a, b and c, above
If it is determined the aircraft exhibits hostile intent, ProForce will engage the aircraft per
their General Orders. Consult EAL's for further guidance, Consider the following
immediate actions:
A. Gather information based on type of hostility:
a. Personnel attack
b. Facility attack or attempted theft
c. Chemical dispersion etc.
B. Shelter in place the balance of plant.
C. Classify and categorize the event.
D. Utilize Generic Crisis Checklist.

Y-12 IS CURRENTLY DESIGNATED AS A "NATIONAL SECURITY AREA."
Definition
A national security area (NSA) consists of airspace of defined vertical and lateral dimensions
established at locations where there is a requirement for increased security of ground facilities. The
purpose of such national security areas is to request pilot cooperation by voluntarily avoiding flight
through the NSA.
When circumstances dictate a need for a greater level of security, flight in an NSA may be
temporarily prohibited by regulation under the provisions of 14 CFR Section 99.7, Special Security
Instructions. Such prohibitions will be issued by FAA Headquarters and disseminated via the U.S.
NOTAM System.

We have experienced back to back overflights of a private general aviation aircraft on 10/28/19 and 10/29/19, both
being the same aircraft— tail number N204BE, a Cessna 172N.
used flightradar24.com to track the flights,
and the PSS Office has performed screen captures of the flight routes. It is possible that these overflights were
performed with nefarious intent. This is why you are receiving this information. I am attaching several documents
showing the overflight information referenced above, including information on the aircraft registration and
ownership. At the time of the transmittal of this email, the aircraft is flying at 23 degrees on the compass, just southeast
of Columbus, OH.

It conunuea in an
easterly direction. performing circles and figure-8 pattems, until exiting the Y-12 boundary on the east side of the
site. Altitude was estimated to be 500 to 1,000 feet above ground level.
On 1/21/21. at approximately 1940 hours, another UAS was sighted by Protective Force flying over the site, This
UAS came over the site's North Ridge, flew over the Protected Area from west to east. and left the site
approximately 1943 hours. This IJAS had lights. but due to the brief flight time Protective Force was not able to
determine any other charactenstics. At approximately 2004 hours. two IJASs were sighted fiysng in formation over
the site. Both had lights and flew from west to east and then left the site. Again, at 2100 hours, a single UAS was
observed traveling west to east over the UPF construction site. This UAS flew over the South Ridge and out of sight
at 2105 hours. Again. no other distinguishing characteristics were determined
At this time, Y-12 has no information on the origin or ownership of the IJASs.
The Oak Ridge Police Department checked
numerous areas around the Y-12 Site and found nothing of interest.

This review does not constitute clearance for Public Release.
Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex — Planned Protest
Issue: On 1/22/2021, at 1300 hours, protesters gathered outside of the Y-12 National Security Complex (NSC).
Context: On 1/22/2021, at 1300 hours, 20 members of the Oak Ridge Environmental Peace Alliance (OREPA)
gathered outside of the Y-12 National Security Complex to protest nuclear weapons and show support of the
passing of the United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
OREPA is a collection of activists who believe they have the power to create the world they hope to live in. The
organization calls for the elimination of funding for the Life Extension Program for existing nuclear weapons as
well as plans for new weapon production facilities, such as the Uranium Processing Facility at Y-12.
Once at the perimeter of the Y-12 site, the protesters hung yellow X's, a poster, and a banner on the fence (229
boundary), just outside the Y-12 New Hope Center. After completing the action, the protesters soon disbanded
without incident (1400 hours). There were no site operational disruptions.
Significance: In general, anti-nuclear groups endorse non-violent actions aimed at increasing public awareness
of the potential dangers of nuclear weapons. These protests have the potential to disrupt daily operations as well
as pose threats to government property. No disruptions or threats were noted during the event described in this
brief.

Subject: Y-12 National Security Complex (NSC) — Failure to stop at Y-12 entry checkpoint
Issue: A delivery truck driver became lost and illegally entered the site after he failed to stop at the Y-12 Main
Entrance checkpoint (Checkpoint 23)
Context: On January 28, at around 2030, a white box truck drove around the checkD0int throu h the exit lanes
at the Y-12 main entrance and continued on into the site swithout stopping.
The driver, who
spoke very little English, produced a New York state driver license and a bill of lading showing he was making
a delivery to an offsite contractor approximately three miles away.
The vehicle was inspected for both explosives and narcotics with negative results.
Significance: As the vehicle crossed the 229 boundary, the driver failed to comply with instructions in
accordance with Y-12 Site and Protective Force procedures. This violated section 229 of the Atomic Energy
Act of 1954, as implemented by 10 CFR Part 860, which prohibits unauthorized entry to DOE installations.

Subject: [External] Y-12 UAS Overflight
Good Morning
I first want to pass along
appreciation of the communication regarding the UAS incidents
on January 20th and 21st. It's something he's interested in and also reminds our agents they need to be aware of
threats/surveillance overhead as well as on the ground.
This morning I received a report from the Nightly Notes regarding another UAS overflight on January 28th. j was
wondering if you had any further details and if there was any information regarding whether or not any of the
overflights were near AOEC. If there is any way I could get a copy of or take a look at the surveillance video footage of
the first incident I would greatly appreciate it, I would like to be able to provide a little bit of training for my agents.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide, and as always, if there's anything I can do to assist you please
let me know. Have a lovely day!

Brief Description of the Incident:
On Wednesday evening, 6/30/21, at 2215 hours, a Y-12 employee reported seeing an Unmanned Aerial System
(UAS) directly over the Y-12 site. At that time, Y-12 Prpotective Force patrols could not independently verify the
sighting. At 2304 hours, a Protective Force patrol reported a UAS sighting in the vicinity of the Y-12 south ridge,
traveling over the site east to west Between 2335 hours to 0006 hours (7/1/21 Protective Force patrols observed
as many as three UASs in various locations circling the Y-12 NSC at varied elevations. The crafts were described
as 4-rotor or "quad blade" crafts with no observed attachments. Visual surveillance was lost at 0006 hours when the

SUMMARY OF INVESTIGATIVE ACTIVITY
On Wednesday Evening, 6/30/2021, at 2215 hours, Y-12 NSC OC conveyed that
an employee reported seeing a UAS over Building 9201-02. Protective Force (PF)
patrols could not verify the sighting. At 2304 hours, PF reports an UAS sighting in
the vicinity of the south ridge, travelling east to west. From 2335-0006 (7/01/2021 ),
PF observed as many as three UASs in various locations at varied elevations. The
crafts were described as 4-rotor or "Quad Blade" crafts with no observed
attachments. Visual surveillance was lost at 0006 hours when the crafts disappeared
traveling north towards Oak Ridge. (See attached Protective Force Event Report
Supplemental for timeline of event.)
PF initiated appropriate response
measures to include a request for assistance to the Oak Ridge Police Department,
who verified sightings in the vicinity of Union Valley Road and Commerce Park.
The Federal Aviation Administration and the Department of Energy (DOE) in
December 2017, directed that drone flights be restricted over all DOE facilities for
the welfare of national security. These restrictions include nuclear assembly
facilities, laboratories, and research centers.
This incident will be reported by IOSC as Category A-Management Interest
incident of security concern, in accordance with E-SD-0005, CNS Incidents of
Security Concern Program plan. A night note has been submitted and the incident
entered into SSIMS as appropriate.

Brief Description of the Incident:
On Friday. 10/8/21, at 2055 hours, the Y-12 Fire Department reported spotting an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS)
overflying the Y-12 site. Three witnesses saw the UAS fly in a southerly direction over the area of the Y-12 Fire Hall
(located within the Y-12 Protected Area) and disappear over the south ridge of the site. The UAS did not retum.
The witnesses were unable to determine if the UAS was a rotary wing or fixed wing craft. It appeared to be around
three feet wide, had two flashing lights, and was estimated to be about 80 feet above ground level.
Flight tracking software shoested a commercial airliner was in the vicinity around this time. However, it's flight path
was 1,5 miles east of the plant and it was cruising at an altitude of 10,000 feet. tt is unlikely that this could account
for the sighting.

SUMMARY OF INVESTIGATIVE ACTIVITY
Flight Tracker:
(Note this is Web-sourced data, not true FAA data)
One flight was indicated at 2056 EDT (0056 IJCT), which flew roughly 1.5 miles East of the
plant site, towards the Southeast, 110 az, at roughly 10,000 Ft. Altitude AGL and 300 kts
ground speed. It was Frontier Airlines, 9586, an Airbus A320-251N, registration N374FR.
Although the flight timing and direction of travel appears to closely match, the altitude
and distance from the plant site makes this seem unlikely to be confused with a drone
which was estimated at 80 ft. Altitude.
