Los Alamos National Laboratory has calculated a new generation of radiativeopacities (OPLIB data using the ATOMIC code) for elements with atomic numberZ=1-30 with improved physics input, updated atomic data, and finer temperaturegrid to replace the Los Alamos LEDCOP opacities released in the year 2000. Wecalculate the evolution of standard solar models including these new opacities,and compare with models evolved using the Lawrence Livermore NationalLaboratory OPAL (Iglesias and Rogers 1996) opacities. We use the solarabundance mixture of Asplund et al. (2009). The new Los Alamos ATOMIC opacitieshave steeper opacity derivatives than those of OPAL for temperatures anddensities of the solar interior radiative zone. We compare the calculatednonadiabatic solar oscillation frequencies and solar interior sound speed toobserved frequencies and helioseismic inferences. The calculated sound-speedprofiles are similar for models evolved using either the updated Iben evolutioncode (see \cite{Guzik2010}), or the MESA evolution code (Paxton et al., 2015).The LANL ATOMIC opacities partially mitigate the "solar abundance problem".
