Summary[edit]

Description

Efforts to clean up waste from the Manhattan Project and the Cold War are under way at the Y-12 National Security Complex. The seven projects there funded by $216 million from the Recovery Act are providing work for more than 1,500 Americans, many of whom had struggled in the recent recession.

In addition to the work at Alpha 5 and Beta 4, Recovery Act projects at Y-12 include the West End Mercury Area storm sewer cleanup project, removal of soil contaminated with mercury, and the cleanup of a 7-acre scrap yard. In January 2011, Recovery Act workers completed the demolition of Building 9211 at Y-12, which reduced the footprint of the Cold War legacy by more than 83,000 square feet.
