Workers continue to make progress on construction of the Integrated Disposal Facility, a key component of the Hanford Site’s Direct-Feed Low-Activity Waste program to begin treating tank waste.

The word “rad” has finally arrived at the EM Office of River Protection (ORP) Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant at the Hanford Site, and it’s not for a 1980s throwback.

EM’s Moab Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) Project and the National Park Service continue to find ways to help each other in a growing partnership that has improved local revegetation efforts.

EM’s goals for continued safe progress at its sites and its efforts to strengthen the workforce and build partnerships were undaunted during the past year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic.

EM’s annual Mission and Priorities list sets a clear path to success across the DOE complex, site managers said last week at the Waste Management Symposia 2021.

EM federal and contractor officials outlined the status of three significant radioactive liquid waste treatment initiatives at the Waste Management Symposia 2021.

A year ago, EM and the rest of the complex participated in the annual Waste Management Symposia in person. Nobody foresaw that would be the last in-person meeting they would have due to COVID.

EM Hanford Site Manager Brian Vance led a Waste Management Symposia 2021 panel with leaders from the site’s major cleanup contractors to discuss transformative leadership during a period of dynamic change.

Cleanup success at the Energy Technology and Engineering Center (ETEC ) in California is due in large part to the site’s outreach to the community and its nurturing of key partnerships, Federal Project Director John Jones said at the WMS 2021.

EM sites provided updates on their cleanup progress during individual sessions at Waste Management Symposia 2021.
