Department of Energy - Hanford Site Emergency Preparedness Program
Overview The Hanford Site Emergency Preparedness Program includes emergency response and preparedness planning, training, and exercises. Potential emergency incidents at the Hanford Site could involve radioactive, non-radioactive, or mixed waste materials. A dedicated phone line among USDOE-RL, the state and affected local counties assures prompt notification of an emergency. The counties of Benton, Franklin, and Grant participate in this program. The state of Washington, affected local jurisdictions, and USDOE-RL have developed plans and continue to coordinate agency activities and exercise their ability to respond to an emergency at the Hanford Site. This preparedness proved invaluable in response to the fires of 2000.
