A massive, DOE-led environmental remediation project is now underway to clean up the contaminated soil and demolish the original source of waste at the Hanford Site along the Columbia River in Washington. Bechtel, one of the most respected global engineering, construction, and project companies in the world is leading the way. Click here to watch this interactive feature tell the full story of how this incredibly complex technical challenge is being solved by unprecedented engineering and construction feats.
