LLNL Emergency Management Plan (EPlan) Rev 27 January 2022 16 documented in Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, the threats were identified and assessed in the following three categories: Natural, Technological, and Human-Caused. 1.4.1.4 Leased Facilities Emergency management planning and response for leased facilities at LLNL falls under the site’s Emergency Management Core Program. A number of leased facilities are located within the eastern edge of Site 200 bordering Greenville Road in an open, unclassified research and development space called the Livermore Valley Open Campus (LVOC). The LVOC houses conference space and collaboration facilities that connect industry with LLNL and SNL/CA partners. The LVOC is modeled after research and development campuses found at major industrial research parks and other DOE national laboratories with campus-like security, including a set of business and operating rules devised to enhance and accelerate international scientific collaboration and partnerships with U.S. government agencies, industry, and academia. 1.4.2 Physical Attributes of the Sites 1.4.2.1 Geography LLNL consists of two sites, the main Laboratory site located in Livermore, California (Site 200) in Alameda County, and the Experimental Test Site (Site 300) located near Tracy, California, on the border between San Joaquin and Alameda counties (see Figure 1.1). Alameda County has a population of over 1.6 million residents making it the second largest county in the Bay Area and the seventh largest in the State. The County encompasses 14 incorporated cities, as well as six unincorporated communities and rural areas that span a total of 738 square miles. San Joaquin County has a population of approximately 745,000 residents making it the 15th most populated in the State. Most of the County’s population resides in one of the seven incorporated cities of the County. San Joaquin County covers 1,426 square miles. The Livermore site is located approximately 40 miles east of San Francisco in the Livermore valley in southern Alameda County, State of California. The downtown area of the City of Livermore lies about three miles to the west of the Livermore site. In addition to Livermore, notable urban areas to the west of LLNL are the cities of Pleasanton, Dublin, Danville, and San Ramon, and the densely-populated San Francisco Bay Area. Urban areas lying in the general northerly direction from the Livermore site are the cities of Concord, Walnut Creek, Brentwood, Oakley, Pittsburg, and Antioch; while Tracy, Manteca, Stockton, and Modesto are to the east. To the southwest lie the densely-populated cities of Santa Clara County, including San Jose. Site 300 covers approximately 11 square miles or 7,000 acres and is located 18 miles southeast of Site 200, approximately 6.5 miles southwest of downtown Tracy, California.
