Washington River Protection Solutions (WRPS) is
reducing the risk to the environment posed by Hanford’s 56 million gallons of radioactive and chemical waste stored in 158 underground tanks.

Two groups of Washington State University Material Science majors recently received guidance from WRPS engineers while working on senior capstone projects. A group from WSU Tri-Cities conceptualized then created a mobile radar unit which could help detect tank waste levels. Meanwhile, a group from WSU Pullman developed a simulant and waste sampler to characterize floating crust layers in tanks. The team toured the Cold Test Facility (CTF) early in the spring semester and returned later to test their final product.
Wishing everyone a safe Memorial Day weekend. More than a kick-off to the unofficial start of summer, Memorial Day is an opportunity to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
