Fluor is an industry leader in nuclear remediation at government facilities throughout the United States. By completing the Fernald Closure Project 12 years ahead of schedule and $7.8 billion under budget, Fluor is positioned to bring its expertise to the Savannah River Site, to similar U.S. Department of Energy sites, and to nuclear-remediation projects in the United Kingdom, Russia, and throughout the world.

Soon after the Fernald award in 1992, the company recognized the need to accelerate the remediation of this site. Fluor developed the methodology and processes to accelerate closure of the Fernald site.

The company’s approach to remediation is to group facilities and waste sites into zones so that large cost savings can be realized from economies of scale inherent in such key activities as regulatory approvals, utility isolation, and contracting.

Fluor understands that the key to successful remediation of nuclear sites is to transition quickly from an operations culture to a closure culture. This focus allows all parties to do only what needs to be done to reach Decontamination and Demolition and site closure as quickly as possible. Fluor delivers proven leadership teams and the commercial practices that enable rapid transition to a closure mentality.
