Welcome

to the July 2021 edition of
SRNS Today

Stuart MacVean This month, the Department of Energy exercised the option to extend the SRNS
SRNS President and CEO contract through September 30, 2022. I congratulate the workforce on earning the
extension and for safely and securely delivering results for our customers. These
results are evident in some of the successes we celebrated this month, including
being named one of the “Best Places to Work in South Carolina” by an independent
assessment organization.

Recently, the Plutonium Downblend program in K Area moved to four shift glovebox
operations ahead of schedule, increasing downblending rates and furthering our
nation’s nonproliferation objectives. This is just a part of overall optimization activities,
and I am pleased with the progress they have made.
SRNS also surpassed a major environmental restoration milestone with the deactivation
and decommissioning of 50 buildings at SRS, covering over one million square feet.
This helps to steadily reduce the Site’s footprint and prepare for future missions.
In July, three of SRNS’ young professionals were named as the Aiken Standard’s Young
Professionals 2 Follow 2021 award winners; Education Outreach continued their work
with the community; and the SRNS Receiving Inspection organization closed the last
item on the discrepant condition list that exceeded 180 days, a heavy lift requiring
coordination from departments across the Site.
When we put our minds to it, we accomplish great things.
