The Department of Energy has signed off on a $5.4-million task order for Four River Nuclear Partnership to build an emergency operations center at the Paducah Site in Kentucky, according to a procurement notice posted online Friday April 22.
Construction is scheduled to start this year, according to the DOE Office of Environmental Management budget justification for fiscal 2022. The fiscal 2020 budget earmarked up to $6 million for the emergency operations center.
Four Rivers, a joint venture made up of Jacobs, Fluor and BWX Technologies, has a potentially 10-year, $1.4-billion contract for Deactivation & Remediation work at the former gaseous diffusion plant in Paducah, Ky. The current five-year base period expires June 19, according to a DOE contract chart. The DOE still holds rights to option periods of three years and two years respectively.
The notice was published on the federal government procurement website, SAM.gov.
