PADUCAH, Ky. – A2RGC, JV (A2RGC) will provide staff augmentation services to Four Rivers Nuclear Partnership (FRNP), in support of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The three-year contract will assist the DOE’s cleanup efforts at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP) in Paducah, Kentucky, protecting public health and improving the local environment.

Built in the 1950s to manufacture enriched uranium for military nuclear reactors and weapons development, PGDP ceased operation in 2013.

The Paducah site is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Superfund Site. As such, the EPA works in conjunction with the DOE to maintain functionality and efficiency of its long-term response to cleanup of hazardous materials contaminations.

A2RGC is a joint venture between ARS Aleut Remediation, LLC (Aleut) and Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. (Geosyntec), formed under their Small Business Administration (SBA) approved Mentor-Protégé Agreement.

A2RGC will provide professional and technical support staff for the Paducah site, addressing the project’s evolving needs. Using internal recruitment capabilities, A2RGC will source niche skill sets ranging across a wide variety of tasks, such as Scientists, Nuclear Waste Management Specialists, Laboratory Technicians, Waste Shipping, Non-Destructive Assay Technicians and Engineers, and Human Resources.

A2RGC will operate as a prime subcontractor to FRNP, a collaboration led by Jacobs and joint venture partners, Fluor and BWXT. FRNP was recently awarded a three-year extension to continue deactivation and environmental remediation work at the Paducah site.

“We are proud to partner with FRNP, expanding our footprint in Paducah, as it begins an additional three-year partnership with the DOE,” said Aleut’s General Manager, Mark Gragg. “Our team’s robust recruitment functionality for staff augmentation will help grow this project and improve the future of the Paducah region and its residents.”
