RICHLAND, Wash. — The Hanford Field Office and its prime contractors recently participated in a day-long forum highlighting the Hanford Site cleanup mission and federal business opportunities in the region.

More than 200 people attended the Hanford Business Opportunities Exchange hosted by the Energy Technology and Environmental Business Association (ETEBA). Hanford Field Office acting Manager Brian Harkins, pictured speaking in the above photo slideshow, provided an overview of the site’s cleanup mission during a panel discussion on Hanford Site priorities, while contractor leaders spoke about their contract scope, high profile activities, collaborative work and community impact.

ETEBA has hosted similar events near U.S. Department of Energy sites in New Mexico, South Carolina and Tennessee, but this was the first time the group showcased the Hanford Site exclusively.
