"Chuck" Fleischmann F000459 fleischmann.house.gov fleischmann https://fleischmann.house.gov/media/press-releases scraper “Since I first came to Congress, I’ve vowed to the Oak Ridge community that cleanup of contaminated sites dating back to the Manhattan Project and Cold War eras would continue. I’m proud that with the groundbreaking of the new disposal cell at ORNL and Y-12, I have kept my promise. Because of the work now being done to construct a new disposal cell, legacy cleanup will continue in Oak Ridge until it’s complete”, said Congressman Fleischmann. “That means that ORNL will be able to take down excess facilities. That means that our friends at NNSA will be able to do the critical work on our nuclear arsenal to keep our country safe.” “In my role as Chairman of the Energy and Water Subcommittee of Appropriations and Co-Chair of the Nuclear Cleanup and National Lab Caucuses, I’ve long said that we have an obligation to communities nationwide to continue the important work of legacy nuclear cleanup. Too many communities, including Oak Ridge, are dealing with contaminated buildings, soil, and groundwater. The government has an obligation to clean up these sites and return them for localities to use.” 1 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z 2026-04-08T00:30:18Z
