- Growth
- Mature and stable, actively operated — the fixed national asset is unchanged since District 3 completed in December 1990, but the site carries live FY2026 tender notices, a May 2026 national science-and-technology commendation and a November 2025 incident report, with news archives maintained annually since FY2018. Note a consolidating ownership trend: JERA has been forming a dedicated storage operator covering the national bases, so the reporting entity may be absorbed.
- Launched
- 1984 for the data asset (District 1 in service September 1984); the company was established January 1981 to drive construction and re-formed as an operating-services company in February 2004 when national stockpile management was consolidated under the state agency.
