Sun, 05 Feb 2012 00:00:00 GMT c.cfm/video/v.cfm?VideoId=a3a6ff1b-b202-4215-85bd-262f38a57160 In Sept. 2011, Washington River Protection Solutions completed more than 130 ARRA-funded projects while meeting 100 percent of its key milestones safely, on time and on budget. This video provides a brief overview of some of the projects completed that leave the tank farms better prepared to retrieve and treat the 56 million gallons of radioactive waste stored in Hanford's 177 underground tanks Sun, 01 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT c.cfm/video/v.cfm?VideoId=00fdbae6-61a4-4819-ac26-6d72d3ffc502 Vit Plant receives and sets key air-filtration equipment for Low-Activity Waste Facility WTP lifted a nearly 100-ton carbon bed adsorber into the Low-Activity Waste Facility. This key piece of air-filtration equipment will remove mercury and acidic gases before air is channeled through the thermal catalytic oxidizer, which will remove organics and nitrous oxide.

However, he soon realizes that the history runs even deeper at Hanford as he meets with members of local tribes whose ancestors inhabited the region thousands of years before settlers began moving into the area in the 1860s. Eventually the government would take the land from both the Native Americans and the settlers for war purposes in the 1940s. Today some of the best-educated scientists and engineers in the country are working together to clean up what remains after 45 years of plutonium production in an effort to restore the land. Join Cameron as he explores the history and issues of Hanford as he interviews local tribal members, a citizen advisory board member, former and current workers, Hanford management, regulators and more.

Chemical technologists use complex electro-mechanical manipulators to remotely handle the samples from outside the hot cell. The 222-S Laboratory plays many roles, including testing of waste compatibility and physical characteristics to support tank-to-tank waste transfers, performing corrosion rate studies and chemical testing to support tank corrosion inhibition, and providing input to the engineering specifications for evaporator campaigns. The laboratory also studies the physical and chemical characteristics of waste necessary to enable waste retrievals and provides data to support tank closure requirements.

With the help of the Mobile Arm Retrieval System (MARS), workers have retrieved 8,790 gallons of waste from C-107.

Poneman delivered this speech to about 1,000 site employees at Howard Amon Park in Richland, Wash.
