New five-minute “site 101” videos are available on the EM website, providing a brief history and the current cleanup mission status.

Deputy Energy Secretary David M. Turk and EM Senior Advisor William “Ike” White toured DOE facilities and the Aiken County Technology Laboratory during a visit to the Savannah River Site Dec. 2-3.

The environment at DOE’s Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Site and underlying Snake River Plain Aquifer are considerably safer today following 30 years of cleanup in compliance with state and federal regulations.

EM is moving forward with full-scale deactivation of an unused, deteriorating facility at the Y-12 National Security Complex at Oak Ridge after workers successfully isolated potentially hazardous energy sources inside the building.
