Springville Journal, June 13, 2024 — CH2M HILL BWXT West Valley celebrated more than 10 years of safe and compliant cleanup activities at the West Valley Demonstration Project. Since August 2011, CHBWV, the Department of Energy’s cleanup contractor, has continued to accelerate cleanup, eliminate potential environmental hazards and reduce the footprint and life-cycle costs at the site.
Jason Casper, CHBWV President and General Manager stated, “The work performed since 2011 has changed the landscape of the site forever; and is an important accomplishment in the progress to decommission the site. This effort shows that robust engineering controls coupled with state-of-the-science monitoring can accomplish the safe removal of
