GAITHERSBURG, MARYLAND- Advanced Technologies & Laboratories International, Inc. (ATL), is pleased to announce it was recently awarded a new task as part of their Independent Nuclear Consulting contract with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Center for Nuclear Research (NCNR).
The NCNR is a national center for research that provides the advanced measurement capability of thermal and cold neutrons to researchers from industry, universities and government agencies. It plays a key role in fulfilling the NIST mission- “To promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness by advancing measurement science, standards, and technology in ways that enhance economic security and improve our quality of life.”
In February of 2021 the heavy water-moderated nuclear test reactor at the NCNR NIST
facility shut down automatically because of higher-than-normal levels of radiation detected. The event had no significant radiological consequences for NIST workers, the public, or the environment.
ATL’s work involves serving as an independent nuclear consultant to conduct comprehensive independent third-party assessments and training so that an event like this doesn’t happen again. The recent Task awarded to ATL will assess the safety culture of current workers.
“This TO reflects our commitment to delivering excellence and continuously improving performance. The positive feedback from the NRC validates our efforts in maintaining the highest standards of safety and efficiency.” said Bill Niemeyer, Chief Operations Officer, ATL International.
