Closure of the Yankee Rowe Site

These guiding principles were applied during the site closure process:
  • Complete safe and thorough clean up the site
  • Uphold secure stewardship of the spent fuel
  • Obtain full public participation
  • Evaluate beneficial site reuse alternatives

The following goals were accomplished in the Site Closure Project:
  • Completed decommissioning and physical site closure activities.
  • Achieved radiological and non-radiological site closure in a safe, responsible, reliable and beneficial manner.
  • Integrated stakeholder requirements and interests into the project planning and implementation process.
  • Restored the site to environmental-quality standards that will enable future unrestricted use of the majority of the 1,800-acre site.
  • Established an organization, facilities and administrative controls to safely manage the spent nuclear fuel on site until the Department of Energy satisfies its legal obligation to remove the fuel.
