Description:
Using Recovery Act funding, contractors are cleaning up dozens of waste sites, including the 618-10 Burial Ground, located on the Hanford Site a few miles north of Richland, Wash. Waste site cleanup projects often require extensive surveying and research prior to remediation to determine the type, location, and condition of waste buried in the ground decades ago and to ensure workers are protected and contaminated materials are contained during cleanup. In this photo, extensive document searches and reviews coordinated by Linda Montgomery (left) and Bev Frasch (right) have improved remediation planning strategies at the 618-10 Burial Ground, one of Hanford’s most hazardous cleanup sites.
