Take Hanford Virtual Tour
I was supposed to write a blog post about vitrification this week; but after writing it, scrapping it, and then re-writing it, several times over—I’ve decided that topic can wait. Vitrifying waste is cool and is an accomplishment worth discussing and celebrating—which is why that will be the next blog post. This week, I want to change course a little bit.
The River Corridor, a sprawling 220-square-mile expanse within the US Department of Energy’s Hanford site just north of Richland, rivals the size of Chicago. Today, this majestic river continues to be a lifeline for thousands of residents in cities and towns downstream from Hanford, propelling modern energy, agriculture, transportation, recreation, and commerce.
Hanford Communities is pleased to share Hanford-related news and updates through the Summer 2022 Newsletter (July – September).
Hanford Communities wants to share the insightful Let’s Talk About Hanford series from our community partners at Washington State Department of Ecology. What started as a way to connect with community members during the pandemic turned into a fascinating series covering topics like Hanford’s nuclear history to the geological surroundings of the Hanford site and beyond.
