Amentum is part of a consortium that won the Hanford Integrated Tank Disposition Contract with the Energy Department.
As part of the team, Amentum will bring advanced environmental capabilities to safely clean up the Hanford site near Richland, Washington, the company said.
The contract was awarded to Hanford Tank Waste Operations & Closure, LLC, a joint venture led by BWXT Technical Services Group Inc., and includes Amentum and Fluor Federal Services Inc.
“Our long history and extensive experience bringing advanced technical solutions to safely manage legacy liquid waste at the Hanford Site makes us the best partner for the Department of Energy,” said Amentum CEO John Heller. “We look forward to partnering with our DOE client, regulators, and community stakeholders to further advance the cleanup mission near Richland, Washington.”
The contract includes operation of tank farm facilities including single-shell tank waste remediation and closure, design, construction and operation of waste receiving facilities and pretreatment capabilities.
“Amentum and our partners have a tremendous track record of treating waste and managing nuclear operations around the DOE complex,” said Mark Whitney, president of Amentum’s National Security Group. “We will bring the most advanced technologies and experienced team to help solve one of our nation’s most important environmental challenges.”
The end-state closure, single-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract is valued at a maximum of $45 billion over a 10-year ordering period.
