The National Cleanup Workshop brought together senior DOE executives and site officials, industry executives, and other stakeholders to discuss EM’s progress in the cleanup of the environmental legacy of the nation’s Manhattan Project and Cold War nuclear weapons program. Topics discussed at this year’s workshop included major cleanup successes achieved over the course of this year; EM’s technology development program; high-level waste cleanup at Hanford and Savannah River; strengthening safety culture across the EM program; and developing a next-generation workforce.
