"Cleaning up the Hanford site is risky business. Many of the cleanup challenges we face are unknown, which means protecting the health and safety of our workers is our first priority. Offering this additional avenue to our employees when they feel their concerns may not be adequately addressed through normal channels is a positive step for everyone.”
- Chuck Spencer, President, Washington River Protection Solutions |
