CINCINNATI — Today, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Environmental Management (EM) awarded a new task order contract to Aptim Federal Services, LLC, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, under the Nationwide Deactivation, Decommissioning, and Removal (DD&R) program to perform DD&R at the Kesselring Site and Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory, in West Milton and Niskayuna, New York, respectively. Additional work may be negotiated to expand services to the Bettis Atomic Power Laboratory in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania. This task order was competed amongst the nine firms that were awarded Nationwide DD&R Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity contracts. 

The DD&R services include demolishing excess facilities and cleanup of ancillary structures. 

The task order period of performance is 10 years in duration, with an expected maximum value of approximately $630 million.

For more than 30 years, EM has remained focused on addressing the environmental legacy of nuclear weapons development and nuclear energy research that helped end World War II, win the Cold War, and position the United States as a leader in clean nuclear energy. Collectively, EM is delivering results that are protecting the environment, supporting communities, and enabling a concerted focus on safely completing the mission sooner and more efficiently.
