As the largest environmental cleanup program in the world, EM has been charged with the responsibility of cleaning up 107 sites across the country whose area is equal to the combined area of Rhode Island and Delaware. To date, EM has made substantial progress in nearly every area of nuclear waste cleanup and completed cleanup at 91 of these sites.
The "active" sites continue to have ongoing cleanup projects under EM's purview. Use the interactive map above to see states that still have cleanup activities associated with them. The tooltip in the upper-right corner shows site data for each state, and each marker gives site information as well as links to the site fact sheets here on the EM website and each site's full website.
