Iconic Hanford Dome Removed
01.17.2011
Between Pacific Northwest storm systems, the dome of the 309 Building was removed Saturday, January 15, 2011. For more than 50 years, the 309 Building aka the Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor, served as a symbol of Hanford’s nuclear mission. On Saturday, Washington Closure took the first visible steps in dismantling the reactor, a process that will take more than two years to complete. (View the links below for more information.)
