This four-minute video provides a visual overview of the Waste Treatment Plant's progress to-date.

A 50-ton shield door was installed April 22, 2010 at the High-Level Waste Facility. The shield door is in a key area of the facility and was installed to extremely tight tolerances, down to five-thousandths of an inch, or less than the diameter of a human hair.

The door stands 15 feet tall and 18 feet wide.

In October, 2009, the Hanford Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) Project celebrated surpassing the 50-percent-complete mark. In celebration, each employee received a copy of this video, commemorating our progress through the years.
