EM and its cleanup contractor at the Savannah River Site (SRS) have reached an important agreement with South Carolina and federal environmental regulators on the final cleanup of a 25-mile-long stream corridor at the site.

Preparations are well underway to transfer nearly 2,000 highly radioactive capsules from the Waste Encapsulation and Storage Facility (WESF) to interim dry storage at the Hanford Site.

A team from a middle school in Spartanburg, South Carolina took first place in the 19th annual Future City Regional Competition on Jan. 22, accomplishing the mission to design and build a model city with a waste-free future.

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.
