The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Richland Operations Office (RL) and the Office of River Protection (ORP) have released the 2012 Hanford Lifecycle Scope, Schedule and Cost Report.  The Lifecycle Report is a milestone requirement (M-036-01) under the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order, or Tri-Party Agreement (TPA).

The Lifecycle Report serves as an agreed upon foundation for preparing budget requests and for informational briefings to affected Tribal Governments, and Hanford stakeholders.  The report shall also serve as the basis for annual discussions with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Washington State Department of Ecology on how and when DOE-RL and DOE-ORP will complete cleanup, and how TPA milestone changes and adjustments will affect lifecycle scope, schedule and cost.

The 2012 Lifecycle Report information reflects scope, schedule and cost status that is current as of August 31, 2011, and the costs shown have been escalated for inflation. 

Public feedback will be an ongoing part of the annual report preparation process.  All feedback on the 2012 Lifecycle Report need to be in writing and submitted by April 13, 2012 to:
