National Nuclear Security Administration ends Oak Ridge Y-12 contract.

The National Nuclear Security Administration is terminating its contract with Nuclear Production One, the company it selected to manage the Y-12 National Security Complex in Oak Ridge.

The agency intends to hold a new bidding process to find a company to manage the highly specialized site. 

Y-12 was built as part of the Manhattan Project and the facility maintains the U.S. nuclear stockpile, secures nuclear materials and provides enriched uranium to the U.S. Navy. It spans 811 acres and supports a workforce of 6,200. 

Nuclear Production One was supposed to begin managing Y-12 and its sister site, the Pantex Plant in Texas, last year during a transition period where the current contractor, Consolidated Nuclear Security, would gradually step down.
