Fluor Wins Contract to Clean Up Uranium Site
Fluor Corp., a construction and engineering company based in Aliso Viejo, said it won a $2.4-billion, 10-year contract from the Energy Department to help complete the cleanup of a former uranium processing facility.
Fluor has been the main cleanup contractor at the Fernald Environmental Management Project based near Cincinnati since 1992. The company said it has already cut more than a decade from the original cleanup schedule and reduced taxpayer costs for the project by $3.1 billion.
To complete the cleanup, Fluor is working with Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. and other companies, including Nuclear Fuel Services and Waste Management Federal Services.
