RICHLAND, Wash. – With demolition of the Plutonium Finishing Plant (PFP) on the Hanford Site rapidly approaching, crews are busy preparing the site surrounding the facility. EM’s Richland Operations Office and contractor CH2M HILL Plateau Remediation Company recently demolished a small, empty non-radiological warehouse. A time-lapse video of the demolition can be viewed here. They will demolish another warehouse in the coming weeks. Removal of these small buildings immediately adjacent to PFP is needed to make room for the heavy equipment, waste load-out cans, dust suppression equipment and other equipment that will be used to demolish PFP. Of the 91 buildings that make up the PFP complex, 68 have been demolished.
