Wastren Advantage, Inc., which operates the Oak Ridge Transuranic Waste Processing Center, earned almost all of the available fee for its last evaluation period of Aug. 1, 2011, to Jan. 31, 2012, according to an April 2 Department of Energy fee evaluation letter. For the period, WAI was awarded $1,208,003 out of an available $1,281,021. The earned fee consisted of $735,947 for TRU Waste Processing Center Facility Operations; $194,716 for Environmental, Safety, Health and Quality Assurance performance; $206,245 for Cost and Project Management performance; and $71,097 for Business Management and Stakeholder Relations performance, the brief letter says. In a written response, WAI President and CEO Steve Moore said, “WAI is pleased with our most recent award fee score at TWPC and believe it demonstrates the hard work put forth by both WAI and DOE personnel at the project. We are focused on continuing to challenge ourselves and the team on being able to more safely and cost effectively execute this vital project to support the EM clean-up efforts of the Oak Ridge Reservation.”
