Hanford demolition work could restart later this year.
RICHLAND, WA – Work to tear down one of Hanford’s most radiologically contaminated buildings could restart in October under new plans to do the work more carefully and deliberately.
The plant could be torn down to the ground by June 2019, completing a lengthy and sometimes troubled project at the nuclear reservation.
Work at the Plutonium Finishing Plant was stopped in December when radioactive particles spread, leaving 11 workers with small amounts of contamination radioactively decaying inside their bodies from inhaling or ingesting the particles.
