The UPF bomb plant has spent more than a billion dollars already, but that money doesn’t count under Congress’s new “cap” for the project. It was also initially to include a broad slate of operations, replacing unsafe facilities at the Y12 Plant.

Oh, and the new “cap” is not the total, just for the next ten years, even though construction is projected to take longer.
