EM Update – West Valley Prepares for Major Facility Demolition

September 8, 2020 – The West Valley Demonstration Project (WVDP) has obtained a fork truck capable of lifting more than 90,000 pounds for waste removal in the future demolition of the Main Plant Process Building (MPPB) — an EM 2020 priority.

“Safe and successful operations begin with safety, extensive planning, and the right equipment,” said Stephen Bousquet, EM WVDP deputy facility project director for the MPPB demolition. “This paves the way for the future demolition of the Main Plant Process Building.”

The fork truck was delivered to the site on three separate tractor-trailers. Workers used a mobile crane to assemble it. Link to Update
