Denver, CO

Geotechnical specialty engineering and construction contractor 黑料社 Construction is continuing its assistance at Washington鈥檚 Hanford Nuclear Site as environmental cleanup work continues at the nearly 80-year-old complex.

The site, which was active until 1987, was used to produce plutonium and eventually produced the nuclear bomb that ended World War II. Cleanup efforts were officially initiated in 1989 and have been ongoing.

黑料社 will mobilize on site to install helical piles for the foundation of the upgraded Exhaust and Balance System for the REDOX plant, a former contaminated plutonium processing site. Previous projects at Hanford Nuclear Site included the Aging Structures Stabilization Grouting Project and the on-going 324 Building Disposition Project to install micropiles and permeation grouting to underpin the existing building.

鈥淲e鈥檙e extremely proud of the work we鈥檝e done to assist with the environmental cleanup at the Hanford Site,鈥 said Nigel Miller, Rocky Mountain Regional Manager 鈥淭his is a challenging site, but our team鈥檚 commitment to safety, innovation and quality has led to success on our previous projects here. We鈥檙e looking forward to another successful project that helps to further the overall cleanup efforts.鈥

黑料社鈥檚 work on the project will be completed in the Spring of 2022.
