B&W Y-12 continued to shore up its management ranks yesterday, naming former B&W Shaw Remediation and Idaho National Laboratory executive David Richardson as its Deputy General Manager for Operations. Richardson replaces Bill Klemm, who retired in the wake of the July 28 Y-12 National Security Complex security breach, but has a slightly different job description. Richardson will focus on production; facilities, infrastructure and services; and engineering functions in his new role. Richardson joins Chief Operating Officer Joe Henry, Deputy General Manager for Safeguards and Security Rodney Johnson, and Deputy General Manager for Projects Jim Haynes as direct reports to B&W President and General Manager Chuck Spencer. Richardson most recently headed up B&W Shaw Remediation’s work to clean up parts of the Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory, Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory, and Idaho’s Naval Reactor Facility. He also held senior management spots at the Idaho National Laboratory, serving as the lab’s associate director for nuclear operations from 2005 to 2008.
