The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Enterprise Assessments (EA) conducted an independent assessment of the all-hazards planning basis for transuranic waste operations at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory from November to December 2023. This assessment evaluated the effectiveness of both the DOE Oak Ridge Office of Environmental Management and its management and operating contractor, United Cleanup Oak Ridge, LLC (UCOR), in developing and maintaining the all-hazards planning basis for transuranic waste operations at the Transuranic Waste Processing Center (TWPC).
