Hanford's Future: 

The Manhattan Project National Historical Park

A New National Park

In December 2014, the President signed into law the 

Manhattan Project National Historical Park Act, which directs 

the Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Park Service 

(NPS) to work together to establish a new co-managed National 

Park in the three original Manhattan Project locations – Oak 

Ridge, TN, Los Alamos, NM and the Hanford Site in Washington 

State. The park was established December 19th, 2014.

With the coming of the National Park, DOE will need to reevaluate its long term strategy for roads and services to ensure safety and 

public access to the historic facilities in the Park. Decisions about which roads are needed, and the condition in which the roads 

should be kept for the National Park, may be made in 2016, as one example. Other affected systems include utilities, 

communications and emergency services. 

Integration and Alignment

5

An initial boundary map indicating which eligible facilities will eventually be in the Park will be established by December 2015, 

along with a Memorandum of Agreement outlining roles and responsibilities for DOE and NPS. The law directs DOE to expand 

public access to Park facilities and to undertake historic preservation and maintenance work to ensure the longevity of the 

historic facilities. DOE welcomes and embraces this new mission for the Hanford Site, and is already working closely with NPS to 

prioritize preservation work and evaluate options for public access to proposed Park facilities.

` DFLAW infrastructure projects for electrical, water, sanitary sewer and roads
Over the past six years, significant progress has been made by Hanford contractors in realizing the 2015 Vision, 

allowing active cleanup at the Hanford Site to focus on the Central Plateau and the River Protection Project made 

up of the 200E and 200W Tank Farms and the WTP. 

The 2015 Infrastructure and Services Alignment Plan (ISAP) and the 2015 Washington River Protection Solutions 

(WRPS) Infrastructure Upgrade Plan reflect a changing landscape by outlining future states of infrastructure and 

the support needed to complete mission requirements. Both identify the scope and timing of the key activities 

needed to reach those future states.

The ISAP document works in conjunction with baseline operations and maintenance of the infrastructure to assure 

that reliable, on time, and cost effective services are provided at the required capacities for the Hanford 

stakeholders.

Reliable Service and Needed Capacity 

for Reduced Cost at Hanford

SEWER: Protect

System modifications are predominately influenced by population changes on the Central Plateau 

coupled with degraded conditions of several drain fields needed for long term mission requirements. 

While short-term mitigation strategies are in place to pump the failing drain fields, as needed, long term 

projects have been defined to eliminate the workarounds:

` Install pumping systems to route septage from 

the failing W-1 and W-16 drain fields to the 200W 

sewer lagoon and abandon the drain fields

` Replace the failing E-12 drain field in 200E to 

support long-term tank farm needs

` Sewer capability to support LAWPS

ROADS: Right-size

Transformation of the Hanford road system is characterized by completion of the River Corridor cleanup 

and the focus of resources on the arterial and core roads serving the Central Plateau. This strategy will 

eliminate maintenance costs associated with a significant portion of the 100 Area roads while 

establishing restricted access. Key activities include:

` Apply asphalt overlays of arterial access roads to 

the Central Plateau (Rte 3, Rte 4S, and Rte 11A 

west of 200 East)

` Chip seal repairs to Central Plateau core roads

` 1st St/Canton Ave upgrade to support DFLAW

` Establish restricted access program for nonmaintained roads

` Pavement condition assessment including 300 Area

` Widening and overlay of several Central Plateau 

core roads for safety improvements (Dayton Ave, 

Akron Ave, 12th Street, and 23rd Street)

` Evaluate which existing roads will be needed to 

support the Manhattan Project National Historical 

Park as well as whether any upgrades are needed.

HAMMER: Serve

While HAMMER’s future remains rooted in its mission to serve the training needs of Hanford personnel, 

it is also being driven by business development opportunities with other stakeholders and the need to 

improve and modernize the training environment to sustain high quality training. Key areas of focus 

over the next 5–10 years include:

` Establish long-term business partnerships with 

other federal agencies and support existing 

agency agreements with federal and non-federal 

customers 

` Invest in upgrades to curriculum, facilities and 

technology to improve quality of training 

` Maintain core business of training the Hanford 

Site workers

` Develop strategies for supporting future training 

needs of the WTP 

SAFEGUARDS & SECURITY/PATROL: Protect

The posture of the site security program will continue to be driven by the need to protect against theft 

of special nuclear material and unauthorized access to facilities and classified information. While those 

requirements will remain effectively unchanged over the planning period, land transfers and aging 

facilities at the Patrol Training Academy (PTA) need to be addressed. 

` Replace the weapons cleaning trailer 

` Upgrade Buildings 662 and 662A 

(PTA classrooms) 

` New Live Fire Shoot House

` Evaluate potential scenarios for broad public 

access to the Manhattan Project National 

Historical Park as well as associated upgrades 

or changes.

WATER: Modernize

Raw/Export

Modifications and maintenance to the site export and raw water distribution systems are strongly 

influenced by the need for reliable raw water delivery to the Central Plateau for fire protection and 

process cooling water to the River Protection Project facilities (e.g., 242-A Evaporator; LAW). Long-term 

projects are also defined for right-sizing the export water system while taking advantage of variable 

speed pumping technology for energy savings.

` Refurbish/replace aging export water supply lines 

to maintain high reliability of export water to the 

Central Plateau

` Eliminate the 100D and 100B export water 

reservoirs and upgrade the pumping system 

to the Central Plateau

` Water loop and connection to serve LAWPS 

` Refurbish/replace aging raw water supply lines 

at A Tank Farm, T-Plant, and ETF

` Implement improvements to the preventative 

and predictive maintenance program that focuses 

resources on critical system components needed 

for continuity of water delivery

Potable

While capacity of the potable water system on the Central Plateau appears to be adequate to support 

the future mission needs of the WTP, the safety and reliability requirements of the drinking water 

supply are driving several key projects:

` Install a redundant filter backwash pump at the 

200W Water Treatment Plant to eliminate a single 

point vulnerability, and prevent a shutdown

` Install 200W Water Treatment Plant improvements to include system control valves, 

monitoring instrumentation, Programmable 

Logic Controller software, and the alum 

mixing system 

` Replace the existing chlorine gas injection system 

with a liquid sodium hypochlorite injection system 

to eliminate the risks and associated costs with 

storing and handling chlorine gas

` Refurbish/replace aging potable water supply 

lines at 222-S Lab, B Plant, Waste Receiving and 

Processing (WRAP), 2101M warehouse, and the 

200E/W cross-tie

Reliable Service and Needed Capacity 

for Reduced Cost at Hanford

NATURAL GAS PIPELINE: Transform

In 2012, DOE issued a Notice of Intent in the Federal Register to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for the 

Acquisition of a Natural Gas Pipeline and Natural Gas Utility Service at the Hanford Site, Richland, Washington (NGP 

EIS) under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). In the Notice of Intent, DOE proposed to make natural gas 

utility service available to the DOE’s Waste Treatment Plant (WTP), currently under construction, and the 242-A 

Evaporator in the Central Plateau 200-East Area of the Hanford Site. The proposed action would involve entering 

into a contract with a licensed natural gas supplier to construct, operate, and maintain a natural gas pipeline, 

approximately 30 miles long, running from an interconnect near Pasco, Washington, westerly across non-DOE lands 

beneath the Columbia River to the Hanford Site, and terminating in the 200 East Area of the Central Plateau. The 

Department remains supportive of completing the analyses necessary to consider bringing natural gas onto the 

Hanford Site. However, given current cleanup priorities and schedules, DOE intends to better align the completion 

of the Natural Gas Pipeline EIS and the decision to enter into a supplier agreement with planned future operations 

of facilities on Hanford’s Central Plateau. DOE intends to resume work and complete the EIS in the future and will 

continue to work closely with the community and other key stakeholders regarding the proposal for bringing 

natural gas onto the Hanford Site. 

FIRE/EMERGENCY SERVICES: Protect

The fire/emergency services planning horizon is driven by changes in site demographics and aging 

facilities and systems.

` Replace the Radio Fire Alert and Reporting (RFAR) 

system to address aging and obsolescence

` Upgrade the Hanford emergency siren system 

` Upgrade Station 92 (between 200E and 200W)

` Construct new vehicle storage building to consolidate 

personnel and equipment from the 100 Area and 300 

Area stations

` Close 100 Area and 300 Area Stations

` Migrate to a Central Dispatching emergency response 

system 

` Construct new fire station in 200E to support WTP 

operations and eliminate the 400 Area fire station

` Evaluate appropriate coverage aligned with planning for 

the Manhattan Project National Historical Park as well 

as associated upgrades 

or changes

FACILITIES: Modernize

The transformation of facilities across the site is being driven by multiple factors, including demographic 

shifts, energy savings initiatives, facility aging, and consolidation. With facilities aging, routine building 

maintenance will be supplemented to address significant roof and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) 

replacements. Other key projects include: 

` Installation of electric vehicle charging stations in 200E 

to support electric vehicle fleet expansion

` Renovation and expansion of the 200E Vehicle Fleet 

Maintenance Shop 

` Consolidation of warehousing activities

` Relocation of fire systems maintenance into new or 

repurposed facilities

` Upgrade and reconfigure existing A/AX/AY 

Tank Farm facilities west of Buffalo, south 

of 7th and north of 4th

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT): Integrate

IT infrastructure continues to be fueled by technology advances and the need for more accessibility 

of electronic information across organizations supporting the Hanford missions. Cyber security threats 

and capacity are also driving changes in the IT arena over the next decade. Key activities include: 

` Upgrades to network hardware to address cyber 

security requirements and new internet protocols

` Consolidation from 29 to 11 IT facilities to shrink the 

footprint, improve services delivery, and reduce 

operating costs

` Leveraging Hanford Federal Cloud hosted applications 

for Other Hanford Contractors (OHCs) as well as across 

the Emergency Management (EM) Complex to maximize 

use of DOE investments

` Continue to deploy Thin Client workstations to lower life 

cycle costs, reduce power consumption, advance 

solutions delivery and strengthen cyber security 

posture

` Continue expansion and commercialization 

of broadband wireless services to support mobilization 

of workforce leveraging 

tablet/iPad platforms

` Develop strategies for supporting future WTP IT needs

` Work with National Park Service agency to ensure 

capabilities are with the National Park Service 

interpretation best practices as well as associated 

upgrades or changes

ELECTRICAL: Transform

The Hanford electrical distribution system will continue to shrink in response to cleanup completion, 

while customer requirements on the Central Plateau will drive system upgrades for capacity and 

reliability. Projects and programs to support these changes include:

` Upgrade the current capacity of the 200 Area 

substation to support forecasted infrastructure loads at 

the Tank Farms and LAWPS

` Increase capacity and balance loads on 200E 13.8kV 

distribution lines to support new loads within the Tank 

Farms and LAWPS

` Start-up the A6 substation and electrical supply 

to WTP

` Address 230kV line vulnerabilities in order to assure 

service to LAWPS

` Eliminate one of the two southern area substations as 

loads continue to decrease from cleanup efforts

` Execute a prioritized program to replace the site’s aging 

power poles to assure continued high availability of 

power to operating facilities

` Deactivate the A9 substation as 100K Area cleanup is 

completed

` Evaluate current and future needs for hosting broad 

public access to the Manhattan Project National 

Historical Park as well as associated upgrades or 

changes
