The Energy Communities Alliance (ECA) in cooperation with DOE and the Energy Facilities Contractor Group (EFCOG) is set to hold the first DOE National Cleanup Workshop Sept. 29-30 in Washington, D.C. The workshop will bring together senior DOE executives, officials from DOE sites, industry executives and other stakeholders to discuss the progress the DOE Office of Environmental Management is making addressing the environmental legacy of the Manhattan Project and Cold War-era U.S. nuclear weapons program. Topics set to be discussed at the workshop include major cleanup successes planned over the next two years, further improving contract and project management and efforts to develop new cleanup technologies, among others.

As the largest environmental cleanup program in the world, EM has been charged with the responsibility of cleaning up 107 sites across the country whose area is equal to the combined area of Rhode Island and Delaware. EM has made substantial progress in nearly every area of nuclear waste cleanup and, as of September 2012, has completed cleanup at 90 of these sites. A website with more information on the event will be available next week.
