BAUER TO HEAD UP FACILITIES, INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES AT B&W Y-12

Linda Bauer is set to take over as B&W Y-12’s Vice President of Facilities, Infrastructure and Services, B&W Y-12 President and General Manager Chuck Spencer said in a statement yesterday. Bauer, who takes over for Steve Little, joins B&W Y-12 after a stint at Los Alamos Technical Associates, where she worked on the Portsmouth Environmental Restoration Project and the Depleted Uranium Hexafluoride Conversion Project. She previously held several senior positions at Babcock & Wilcox, including management roles at BWXT Savannah River Company. “B&W Y-12 is fortunate to have someone with Linda’s experience and leadership join our team,” Spencer said. “Our ability to effectively complete facilities and maintenance work is critical to both our daily and long-term success. Linda has my full confidence as she leads her team in keeping Y-12 running in a safe, secure and compliant manner.” Little shifts to a role as senior director and will serve as a deputy to Bauer, while former deputy Scott Underwood moves to support the Uranium Processing Facility on special assignment.
