During World War II and the Cold War period the government built and operated nine nuclear reactors for the production of plutonium and other nuclear materials. \n  \nSeveral active nuclear facilities remain on the Hanford Site to support the ongoing environmental restoration mission\, and new facilities are being constructed to treat the radioactive waste still held in underground tanks. \n  \nBoth the existing and new nuclear facilities must be designed to withstand natural phenomena (earthquakes\, floods\, high winds\, etc.) to ensure the facilities continue to serve their safety functions during such events. \nDr. McDuffie has a B.A. in Geology from Whitman College; M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Earth and Planetary Sciences from Johns Hopkins University\, and an MBA degree from Washington State University Tri-Cities with a focus on decision sciences and revenue management. \n  URL:/event/doe-lecture-series-natural-hazards-and-their-mitigation-at-doe-nuclear-sites/ LOCATION:East Auditorium\, 2710 Crimson Way\, Richland\, WA\, 99354 ORGANIZER;CN="Tish Christman":MAILTO:Letitia Christman <tish.christman@tricity.wsu.edu> END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
