The systems, which utilize 100% renewable energy, are used for security purposes including incident prevention.
They will be deployed at the Hanford Waste Treatment plant in Richland, where they will be used to provide surveillance within the nuclear tank farm waste retrieval area.
The four new remote monitoring units will be added to the 20 existing units already in place, the company said.
WRPS, owned by URS Corp and EnergySolutions, with integrated subcontractor Areva, is a prime contractor to the US Department of Energy’s Office of River Protection and is responsible for reducing the risk posed by the waste stored in Hanford’s aging underground tanks.
