Brian Stickney as of this week is the new assistant manager for safety and environment for the Department of Energy Richland Operations Office at the Hanford Site in Washington state.
Stickney had been the deputy assistant manager for safety and environment since August 2016 and served as manager in an acting capacity for eight months, “providing exemplary leadership and critical mission expertise,” said DOE Hanford Manager Brian Vance in an announcement.
Stickney joined the Richland Operations Office in 2016 after serving for seven years as a facility representative and program manager for DOE at the Hanford tank farms and as health division director for the Hanford DOE Office of River Protection.
The Richland Operation Office oversees most cleanup operations at Hanford, minus radioactive tank waste activities managed by the Office of River Protection.
