SRS Pioneers Waste Cleanup and Safety Drive Worldwide
The Savannah River Site outlines major advances in nuclear waste stabilization and safety. Highlights include 250 canisters of high level waste produced, over 2 million pounds stabilized, and the site’s low radiation exposure near zero. The report cites cost savings of about 78 million through fiscal year 1998 and a 1.3 billion potential taxpayer saving from backlog storage efforts. SRS also notes rapid deactivation of facilities, transfer of missions from Mound Ohio, and job creation through new cleanup technologies and community programs. The focus remains on nonproliferation, environmental cleanup, and cost effectiveness with broad regional impacts including support to Aiken and partnerships with the United Way.
