As part of its ongoing monitoring of underground waste-storage tanks, Hanford Site tank operations contractor Washington River Protection Solutions looks inside each one of Hanford’s single-shell tanks. These visual inspections are just one of the tools used to monitor the radioactive and chemical waste stored in the tanks.

Did you know radiological control technicians perform routine surveys in an effort to protect the environment and workers from potential contamination? Take a look at this video that shows how a Plutonium Finishing Plant radiological control technician performs surveys in a high-traffic office area, and the tools he uses. You can also find updates on Plutonium Finishing Plant activities on the Hanford website. New information is posted regularly: https://www.hanford.gov/page.cfm/Updates_on_Pluto

The Hanford Site is fascinating. We covered Ecology’s role in part 1, but it’s time we share more. People rushed to the area following ads for work, and soon, the site expanded. Housing and amenities were offered on site for workers. It was important to keep them all happy. But what was all of this for?

🔥Ever seen something pulled out of a 2,100°F furnace? Crews at the Hanford Vit Plant safely replaced red-hot melter bubblers—equipment that stirs molten glass inside the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant. Each of the plant's two melters hold 18 bubblers, which inject air into the molten glass to keep it moving and evenly heated. To safely replace the bubblers, crews used a metal tube called a consumable changeout box, which contains any potential contamination during removal. | Hanford S
