The Yakama Nation, including its government and members, will continue to seek restoration and management solutions that will serve in the best interests of the land, the community, and the knowledge held within the Hanford area.

Oregon remains committed to ensuring that Hanford cleanup moves forward swiftly and safely. But speed cannot come at the cost of transparency, public trust and environmental responsibility. 

Despite the significant challenges that remain, the treatment of Hanford’s tank waste and its solidification in glass finally seem within reach. The momentum is palpable, but so are the very real threats to this progress.

Since assuming responsibilities on Jan. 1, 2024, IHA has delivered a comprehensive range of medical services to the workforce of more than 9,000 people.

By modernizing the 222-S Laboratory’s analytical capabilities and developing a high-quality workforce, Navarro-ATL ensures the lab’s ability to perform radioactive sample analysis at the Hanford site for decades to come.

With more than 250 unique services and infrastructure responsibilities, HMIS’ work is pivotal to the Hanford cleanup mission. 

We will make history in the grandest sense: fully treating Hanford’s tank waste for disposal and removal from the state of Washington. There is nothing in the DOE complex more environmentally significant.

We have reset our sights on the next phase of our strategic cleanup mission, which includes both new and ongoing scopes of work. 

Our work is more than a technical achievement – it is a commitment to environmental stewardship, community support, and a legacy of safety and innovation. 

We’re at a crucial inflection point in cleaning up one of the world’s most complex environmental cleanup sites at Hanford.
