DuPont to build and operate a nuclear facility near the Savannah River in South Carolina. Surplus plutonium is currently stored there and in the K-Area Complex.ġ950-1951: The federal government asked E.I. In 2000, the K-Reactor building was converted to K-Area Materials Storage (KAMS) Facility. Unirradiated fuel assemblies will continue to be handled, transported, and stored in the assembly area in the same manner and locations as before.

Additionally, the equipment and systems of K Reactor required to ensure environmental compliance will be maintained operable, as well as the equipment and systems required by the K Reactor technical specifications.Īlthough the K Reactor has been placed in cold standby, the assembly area will continue to store unirradiated fuel assemblies, the disassembly basin will continue to store and handle irradiated components prior to shipment to the separations facilities or the burial grounds, the moderator storage areas will continue to store contaminated moderator, and the purification area will continue to treat contaminated moderator until the site inventory has been processed. The six functions are to (1) provide property protection of government-owned equipment and facilities, (2) maintain facility habitability, (3) prevent the facility from becoming immediately unrecoverable, (4) store and process contaminated moderator, (5) handle and temporarily store irradiated fissile and hazardous material in the disassembly basin, and (6) store unirradiated reactor fuel and other highly enriched uranium (HEU) in the assembly area. Six major functions of the K Reactor were maintained operable during cold standby, and the equipment and components of K Reactor necessary to support the six functions was maintained operable. The mission for the K Reactor changed from demonstrating and maintaining tritium production capability to placing it in cold standby with no planned provision for restart. The K Reactor facilities were shut down in 1996, with some of the support facilities kept in operation.

When operational, the MOX facility will convert legacy weapons-grade plutonium into fuel suitable for commercial power reactors. And, the nation's only mixed oxide fuel (MOX) manufacturing plant is being constructed at SRS. Its Tritium facilities are also the United States' only source of tritium, an essential component in nuclear weapons. It covers 310 square miles (800 km2) and employs more than 10,000 people. The site was built during the 1950s to refine nuclear materials for deployment in nuclear weapons. Savannah River Site (SRS) is a nuclear reservation in the United States in the state of South Carolina, located on land in Aiken, Allendale and Barnwell Counties adjacent to the Savannah River, 25 miles (40 km) southeast of Augusta, Georgia.

Default into program route cycle, now arriving Savannah River Tritium K Reactor.' Various scientists have commented that HAARP is an attractive target for conspiracy theorists because according to computer scientist David Naiditch, 'its purpose seems deeply mysterious to the scientifically uninformed'.įor more information on H.A.A.R.P, including in-game Zombie Facts, go to this linkĪ Zombie Apocalypse - A Tesla Revolution!!! HAARP has been blamed by conspiracy theorists for a range of events, including numerous natural disasters. The HAARP program operates a major sub-arctic facility, named the HAARP Research Station, on an Air Force–owned site near Gakona, Alaska. Navy, the University of Alaska, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)īuilt by BAE Advanced Technologies (BAEAT), its purpose is to analyze the ionosphere and investigate the potential for developing ionospheric enhancement technology for radio communications and surveillance. The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) is an ionospheric research program jointly funded by the U.S. Please secure all personal belongings and take your seat, now departing for the H.A.A.R.P.
