Laboratory personnel can expect increased heavy truck traffic near Technical Area 50 for several weeks while construction of a new tank farm is completed.
The tank farm is being built at TA-50 for the Radioactive Liquid Waste Treatment Facility. While work is under way, up to 30 concrete trucks will be traveling on a weekly basis near TA-50 along Pajarito Road, according to Rick Alexander of Radioactive Liquid Waste (NWIS-RLW).
Lab personnel should be aware of the increased heavy vehicle traffic and use caution when driving, walking, running or cycling in the area.
Weather permitting, concrete work should be completed in May.
