Session 077 - Panel: Wednesday US DOE Featured Site: Lexington, KY Office (Portsmouth and Paducah Sites) (R1.14)

This panel featured the DoE's Portsmouth Paducah Project Office (PPPO), which is responsible for the management and cleanup of at the Portsmouth, Ohio and Paducah, Kentucky former Gaseous Diffusion Plant sites. Portsmouth is primed for the first major skyline change at the site the upcoming demolition of the X-326 process building and initial operations of the Onsite Waste Disposal Facility. The Paducah site is working on the C-400 city block initiative allowing DOE to tackle the main source of groundwater contamination at the site, in conjunction with deactivation and demolition of the C-400 Cleaning Building. PPPO's DUF6 conversion plants have 7 lines in continuous operation at both sites providing the opportunity to ramp up cylinder processing. Panelists with presentations: DOE PPO Update (Robert Edwards, Joel Bradburne); Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office (PPPO) (Joel Bradburne, Robert Edwards); PADUCAH (Jennifer Woodard, Myrna Espinosa Redfield); Depleted Uranium Hexafluoride Conversion Project (Reinhard Knerr, Zack Smith); Paducah Deactivation and Remediation Project (Myrna Espinosa Redfield); Mid-America Conversion Services - Seven Lines One Project (Zack Smith)
