 The Hanford site
AREVA NC Inc. (Richland Office)

We created AREVA NC Inc.'s Richland Office by integrating COGEMA Engineering Corporation into its parent company. The new company, which benefits from a broader and deeper pool of resources, continues to supply state-of-the-art engineering services and technical support in the fields of waste management and environmental protection.

AREVA NC Inc. (Richland Office) will continue to support Hanford's two major contractors -- Fluor Hanford, Inc. and CH2M HILL Hanford Group, Inc.-- with engineering and project expertise in the following areas:
Process engineering environmental systems
Remote sensing and robotics
Non-destructive examination (NDE)
Project management, support and tracking
Design support

Hose-in-Hose Technology for Hanford Tank Farms
AREVA NC Inc. provides engineering management for the successful transfer of high-level waste from single-shell tanks to double-shell tanks, using Hose-in-Hose Technology.

As of January 2005, twenty-four tanks had been pumped using hose-in-hose transfer lines measuring more than one mile in length.
