Project Overview
Client is a global engineering, construction and project management company that has "built the world" for more than 120 years, having constructed Hoover Dam, the English Channel Tunnel, entire cities in the Middle East, the second-largest solar thermal power project in the world, and millions of miles of roads and pipelines.
We produce a lasting, positive legacy by creating jobs, growing economies, connecting communities to resources, shoring up and expanding infrastructure, and making the world a cleaner, greener, safer place.
Join us as we make history at the Hanford Vit Plant, known as the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant.
