safely accomplished significant high-hazard work this
year. A record number of readiness assessments
were completed to do important nonproliferation and
remediation missions in H Canyon, L Basin, K Area and
F Area. We watched proudly as the little New Horizons
space probe—powered by plutonium-238 oxide produced
in H Canyon and HB Line—visited the erstwhile planet Pluto.
And we marked H Canyon’s 60th anniversary with employees,
retirees, and federal and legislative officials in attendance.

We share one goal: to make the world safer.

In September, we had a procedural non-compliance in
HB Line, one of our nuclear facilities. We voluntarily took
an operational pause, conducted a period of “Deliberate
Operations” and implemented a rigorous sustainment plan.
These steps have enhanced our employees’ knowledge of
management expectations, improved our performance and
reinforced our commitment to providing the finest service
possible to our customer and to the nation. With these
positive actions, SRNS is a stronger company. And
with that strength, we make the world safer.

We continued our long-standing support of the National
Nuclear Security Administration’s tritium and nuclear
nonproliferation missions. We’ve faithfully met our
deliverables and progressed in modernizing our SRS
tritium facilities. Ensuring our nation’s defense into
the future makes the world safer.
