Design scope of the Z Plant Metal Control Facility, Project CGC-944

Description: The steadily increasing plutonium production rates in the 234-5 Building has resulted in a large increase in the number of PR cans that are now being handled in the building. This has resulted in the available receiving and storage places for PR cans being taxed beyond their full capacity thereby necessitating the storage of PR cans within the building corridors. Accordingly, the ten-year business plan for the 234-5 Building, as documented in HW-65000, included a program for providing new recei… more
