The U.S. Department of Energy's Hanford Site represents one of the nation's largest environmental cleanup efforts. The potential risks associated with hazardous and radioactive wastes contaminating the nearby Columbia River have been greatly reduced by deploying a range of science-based technologies. PNNL's technologies include those for characterizing, monitoring and remediating contaminants in the vadose zone and groundwater, all which may have application beyond the Hanford Site.
