New Contract Will Help Shut Down Russian Reactors

Overview As part of its effort to permanently shut down the last three weapons-grade plutonium production reactors in Russia, NNSA has signed a $285 million contract with the Washington Group International, Inc. (WGI) to refurbish electric power generating facilities in the closed city of Seversk, Russia. The refurbishment of these facilities will allow for the permanent shutdown of the two reactors located at Seversk. The agreement is a major milestone in the NNSA Elimination of Weapons Grade Plutonium Production (EWGPP) Program and a key element to NNSA's nonproliferation program.
