Environmental Assessments and Health Physics

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and other federal agencies spend billions of dollars cleaning up radioactively contaminated sites each year and need assurances that release criteria have been met. The ultimate safety of these buildings and lands is of paramount concern for the public and future stakeholders of these properties.

Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) is the nation’s leading provider of independent verification surveys of environmental cleanup, greatly enhancing public trust and instilling confidence in the decontamination and decommissioning of contaminated sites.

ORAU Provides Independent Surveillance of Environmental Cleanup Activities

Whether your project requires the cleanup of a site, a facility, or equipment contaminated with nuclear materials, your business needs to be able to rely on a respected, objective organization to ensure that remediation plans adequately assess radiological conditions.

ORAU has performed independent environmental assessments and verification for federal and state agencies for more than 25 years. We partner with cleanup agencies to provide objective, independent surveillance of decontamination and decommissioning efforts.

We are also nationally recognized for our radiation safety training and full range of health physics capabilities that can help you protect your workers, the public, and the environment from potential radiation dangers.
