The Department of Energy will hold its Clean Energy Project Information Day for the Nevada National Security Site Feb. 13 in Las Vegas, the department said this week.

The session will be held at the National Atomic Testing Museum at 755 East Flamingo Road in Las Vegas, Nevada on Feb. 13, at a time to be determined, DOE said in an update to a request for information issued earlier this week.

The session will allow interested parties to learn more about this potential project for carbon-free solar energy projects at the Nevada National Security Site, DOE said.

Oak Ridge, Tenn.-based Boston Government Services this month announced a pair of management moves, appointing a vice president for energy and environmental work as well as a head of cybersecurity.

Longtime Boston Government executive Karen Harris, who was chief executive of a small technical services business for a decade and has 25 years of experience in planning and administration, has been promoted to energy and environmental vice president, the company said in a press release.

Also, Rocky Campione, a former executive with both the Department of Energy and an Amazon Web Services entity, joined Boston Government Services this month as its vice president of cybersecurity and technology solutions, according to a separate press release.

S&K Logistics, a tribally-owned government contractor, has won a potential three-year, $24-million award for support services at the Department of Energy’s Savannah River Site in South Carolina.

The Department of Energy’s Savannah River Site in South Carolina has inked a three-year cyber security and information technology contract, potentially worth up to $24 million, with a company based out of Oklahoma City, according to a Thursday press release.
