Congratulations to Department of Energy (DOE) Oak Ridge Environmental Management and United Cleanup of Oak Ridge, LLC (UCOR) on breaking ground on the Environmental Management Disposal Facility (EMDF)! The EMDF is an engineered onsite disposal facility for waste generated from deteriorated buildings on the Oak Ridge Reservation (ORR). The EMDF will enable environmental cleanup across the ORR so that the DOE Office of Science and National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) can reuse the land in support of innovative research and national security missions.
Strata-G President John Patterson has served UCOR as the EMDF Project Manager since June 2020: “The EMDF Team is an awesome group of seasoned professionals that have supported all phases of the project all while working in collaboration with our UCOR colleagues, DOE customers, and TDEC and EPA regulators.” The EMDF Team L to R: Steve Kenworthy, Bobby McClure, Greg Pickerel, Todd Bergener, Joe Aylor, Sean Dunagan, Stephanie Miller, Mason Eschenberg, Doug Hanahan, John Patterson, Doug Reynolds, Mary Magleby, and Karl Chance (missing Jennifer Linton, Annette Primrose, and Robin Manning).
Excellent work to all supporting this effort!
