DOE Selects Amentum-Fluor-Cavendish Team for $5.87B Portsmouth Site Cleanup Contract

A limited liability company formed by Amentum, Fluor (NYSE: FLR) and Babcock International Group’s Cavendish Nuclear subsidiary has won a potential 10-year, $5.87 billion contract to perform decontamination and decommissioning work on a gaseous diffusion plant site in Portsmouth, Ohio.

Southern Ohio Cleanup Company will demolish and dispose of GDP process equipment and related facilities, remediate contaminated soils and groundwater and dispose of uranium material, according to an award notice posted Thursday on SAM.gov.

In a separate announcement, DOE said it received two bids for the new PORTS D&D indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, which was awarded under the “end-state contracting model.”

Fluor’s separate joint venture with BWX Technologies (NYSE: BWXT) has performed the work since the initial five-year contract was awarded in March 2011.

DOE noted that efforts under the original PORTS D&D contract will transition to the upcoming $1.89 billion Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office Operations and Site Mission Support or PPPO OSMS contract.
