Linton Brooks is to submit his resignation as chief of the National Nuclear Security Administration this month, the department said.

Brooks was reprimanded last June for failing to report to Bodman that computers at an NNSA facility in Albuquerque had been breached resulting in the theft of files containing Social Security numbers and other personal data from 1,500 workers.

Last fall, security at the Los Alamos National Laboratory again came into question when classified nuclear-related documents were found at the home of a former Los Alamos lab employee with top secret clearance. The discovery was made when police made a drug raid on the employee's home.

That security breach was especially troubling, the department's internal watchdog said, because tens of millions of dollars had been spent to upgrade computer security at Los Alamos. The lab is part of the nuclear weapons complex that Brooks' agency oversees.
