2 Hanford whistleblowers sue. They say they lost their jobs for raising safety concerns, Tri City Herald, November 15, 2018 RICHLAND, WA 

The company building the Hanford vitrification plant is defending itself in federal court against two former employers who said they lost their jobs after raising concerns about the plant’s safety.

Bechtel National holds the Department of Energy contract to build and start up the $17 billion plant to turn about 56 million gallons of radioactive waste into a stable glass form for disposal.

The waste is left from the past production of plutonium at the nuclear reservation for the nation’s nuclear weapons program………Annette Cary; 509-582-1533; @HanfordNews  https://www.tri-cityherald.com/news/local/hanford/article221733825.html
