March 28, 2018
The Department of Energy has officially given the go-ahead to construct the last three buildings that will make up Y-12 National Security Complex’s long-awaited Uranium Processing Facility.
The $6.5 billion project will be the largest construction project the state has ever seen and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) expects the project to create more than 2,000 jobs during peak construction.
