Emergency Response (24/7)

1-877-RAD-PROS

Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the people at the other end of this number (1-877-723-7767) are ready to respond to radiological emergencies across the country.

EnergySolutions' multi-company Rapid Radiological Mitigation Team (RRMT) can be on location within hours to organize, control and manage the clean up of a radiological emergency. Created in May 2004, EnergySolutions' RRMT is comprised of 11 companies representing a broad range of specialties needed in a radiological emergency:

• health and safety specialists with radiological and industry safety and health instrumentation,
• dosimetry technicians,
• health physics technicians,
• laboratory technicians,
• protective equipment and supplies, and
• decontamination experts.

Additional companies are in the process of being added to the group to further expand the resource base.

Under EnergySolutions' leadership, the group is prepared to respond quickly to incidents of radiological contamination, wherever they may occur nationwide.

EnergySolutions' goal is to have at least two companies representing each specialty on the team, and to have its team members strategically located throughout the country so that all areas of the U.S. are covered. Pre-placed contracts have been established with each company to expedite the activation process. The pre-placed contract terms also avoid price gouging during times of crisis for the client. Due to pre-planning and established communication links we can activate multiple resources in minutes.

EnergySolutions' 200 trained radiation protection and radioactive waste specialists form the core of the team. They have at their disposal a multi-million dollar inventory of equipment:

• A fully equipped mobile laboratory, that conducts radiological testing in the field
• $5 million in radiological instrumentation inventory
• $3 million in decontamination equipment and protective clothing inventory
• Mapping and Radiation Survey System (MARSS)
• Shielded containers and drums that minimize personnel exposure on site
• Shielded transport casks
• Its own fleet of tractors and trailers

EnergySolutions brings to the team more than 14 years of experience providing emergency response services to customers in a wide range of situations, including:

• Providing radiological emergency support during a vaporized source recovery at a major petroleum refinery
• Mobilizing a rapid response team to recover contaminated metal mistakenly sent to an industrial metal recycling facility
• Providing responses to alarms and detection of radioactive material in railcars, scrap metal yards, and melting and casting facilities
• Securing radioactive sources and material at DoD sites

MYTH: EnergySolutions is secretive.

REALITY: EnergySolutions is a publicly traded company with information widely available to the general public. We also offer free tours of our Clive facility to anyone that’s interested. The truth is, we’d like to tell more about what we do, not less.
