EM recently released contract fee determination scorecards for three contractors that support the cleanup program at the Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office and EM-LA Field Office based on their performance during the evaluation period of fiscal 2021.

EM and its contractors like to keep their ears open in the local area for small businesses that can help address unexpected problems, especially during the pandemic.

As EM begins to dismantle four massive electrical switchyards at the Paducah Site, the recycling of recovered materials and components is supporting local economic development while reducing or offsetting cleanup costs at the site.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management (EM) issued a Draft Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Portsmouth Paducah Project Office Operations (PPPO) and Site Mission Support (OSMS).

The Office of Environmental Management leveraged the results of years of successful work in 2021 to launch a new era for the U.S. Department of Energy’s cleanup mission, all while continuing to manage the challenging conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic.

DOE is awarding a sole source contract to EHI Consultants, Lexington, KY, a HUBZone certified small business to provide support services for the citizen advisory boards & site-specific advisory boards for Portsmouth and Paducah gaseous diffusion plants.

EM’s Paducah Site is constructing a key facility in the cleanup of the former gaseous diffusion plant.

Since the inception of the EM program in 1989, the Paducah Site has made notable achievements in groundwater cleanup, waste removal, and other work advancing its environmental cleanup mission following more than 60 years of uranium enrichment operations.

Workers at EM’s Paducah Site are set to begin constructing a state-of-the-art material sizing area (MSA) in the C-333 Process Building to downsize large components.

For the first time, workers at EM’s Paducah Site are able to closely examine the primary source of off-site groundwater contamination directly underneath the C-400 Cleaning Building.
