Upcoming Events

Welcome back! We are more than halfway through a hot summer season and have maintained a steady pace of activity for our Office.

Carbon emissions have risen dramatically over the past several decades, accelerating climate change and making extreme weather events more intense and frequent.

DOE recently honored three EM sites for exemplary achievements in innovation, strategic partnerships, and planning and completion of projects that advance sustainability at Department sites and national laboratories.

EM has concluded a two-year outage at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Site’s Integrated Waste Treatment Unit (IWTU), where crews completed more than 50 modifications to the liquid-waste treatment facility.

The mission to clean up areas used in the production of nuclear weapons may not get as much attention but it’s important to show that the government can address the environmental legacy in the communities that hosted weapons and research facilities.

EM’s Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is not only back, it’s back with an exclamation mark.

EM and its liquid waste contractor at the Savannah River Site (SRS) continue to make progress on a waste treatment demonstration project with the installation of new ion-exchange columns.

The EM Los Alamos Field Office (EM-LA) and cleanup contractor Newport News Nuclear BWXT-Los Alamos (N3B) recently completed their 30th shipment of transuranic (TRU) waste for the fiscal year that began in October last year.
