Larry Cutlip, Centrus Energy Corp.’s senior vice president of field operations, last week said he would retire from the company in July, according to a Friday regulatory filing.
Cutlip gave his notice on Oct. 16, according to a form 8-K Centrus, Bethesda, Md., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Cutlip “will retire his position at the Company, effective July 31, 2025,” a Friday, reads the 8-K. Cutlip has been in his current role for about eight years.
Cutlip has spent a long career with Centrus and its predecessor company, U.S Enrichment Corporation, where he started working in 1981, according to a Centrus press release from 2008.
That 2008 release announced Cutlip hiring as director of centrifuge manufacturing at the American Centrifuge Plant, a decommissioned project located at a site where today the company enriches high assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) under contract to the Department of Energy. The new project uses a 16-machine cascade of AC-100M centrifuges, development of which Cutlip managed during his decade-spanning career with the company.
The company’s AC-100M technology could be the foundation of a future defense uranium enrichment plant that could be used for the National Nuclear Security Administration’s defense work.
“The search for [Cutlip’s] replacement is underway,” Centrus wrote in its 8-K.
