Summary

[edit]
Description

A debris pile in an East Tennessee Technology Park scrap yard before cleanup.

Project Wipeout is an effort to locate, identify, and remove legacy waste scattered throughout the site.

In August 2011, EM’s contractor in Oak Ridge, URS | CH2M Oak Ridge (UCOR), began using available workers and other resources for the mission to eliminate primarily non-radioactive construction debris at locations across the site. Some of these areas are small with a few pallets and recyclable metal. Others cover thousands of square feet in debris. All of them require active surveillance and maintenance to account for the material and ensure they are stable and secure.

Although personnel and resources are fully deployed most of the time, the initiative maximizes efficiency during occasional slower periods between peak work demands.
