Berkeley, California, United States.

Stage not knownUnited States

What we checked

DOE lists National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. (source)
DOE records the facility's locality as Berkeley, California. (source)

This is an attributed scientific-facility identity/locality record, not a verified physical campus, building or phase boundary. Host laboratory is not a verified legal operator or owner. The US country filter is an explicit state-to-country normalisation, not a copied country field or geocode. No present operation, hardware, capacity, power, capital flow or available compute is inferred. Related programme navigation retains each existing record's own check date and cautions; it does not verify a current open call or eligibility. Three selected identities do not establish national or worldwide completeness.

These links open our existing programme records in directory order, not a ranking. Inspect each record's eligibility, dates and official next step. Listing a route does not mean a call is open, you qualify, an allocation is guaranteed or this facility has compute available.

This navigation reuses the programme records and their existing check dates; it is not a new source or availability check.

DOE acknowledgement: https://science.osti.gov/ascr/Facilities/User-Facilities. Reduced and adapted to the selected facility name, host laboratory and locality, with original uncertainty wording.

Named systems in the official account

DOE identifies Perlmutter as a NERSC system. DOE source

Names-only evidence checked 17 October 2026; next review by 23 October 2026. A named system is not an additional facility or evidence of a separate campus or phase. This association does not verify current operation, hardware specifications, capacity, available compute, an open call or eligibility. Earlier identity evidence and related programme dates are unchanged. Source page update date is not stated.

Question	What this record currently shows	Useful next step
What stage is evidenced?	Stage not known, date not recorded	Inspect the stage source and limits
Where is the formal decision evidence?	Not recorded here.	First identify whether an application exists and which authority or process applies; then inspect its file, reference, status, consultation window, decision and conditions
How can the public participate?	Not recorded here.	Record the official route, deadline, decision-maker and how responses are considered
Which promises became outcomes?	Review 2 checked statements and mark each as proposal, commitment, permission, construction, operation or delivered outcome.	Keep proposed, committed and delivered states separate, with dates and responsible parties

What we do not know yet

These facility fields are not recorded here. This does not show that the facility lacks them or that no source exists. A gap means unknown, never zero.

0 of 13 facility fields recorded

2 separately recorded source statements. These are not included in the facility-field count.

0 of 13 facility fields recorded against the existing target. Separately recorded source statements are not counted in this field measure. Still missing:

Checked on 17 October 2026. Reported and planned figures are shown as such. Independently reviewed on 17 October 2026: the two selected DOE-authored name/host and locality statements, explicit US normalisation, exact reduced reuse and existing programme navigation only. Missing facility fields remain unverified. If something is wrong or you know more, tell us.
