Acting Assistant Secretary for EM William “Ike” White outlined 2021 priorities and highlighted opportunities for success when the broader cleanup community is aligned during an Environmental Management Advisory Board (EMAB) meeting last week.

EM workers have started demolition on the final five DOE-owned buildings at the former Energy Technology Engineering Center (ETEC).

EM crews recently began demolishing the last facility standing in the former Biology Complex at the Y-12 National Security Complex (Y-12) at Oak Ridge.

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.
