| Event Description: | Registration is now open for the 2022 Savannah River Site (SRS) public tour program. The program is managed by Savannah River Nuclear Solutions (SRNS) for the U.S. Department of Energy-Savannah River Operations Office. The site tours provide the public with an opportunity to see many of the historic and operational facilities at SRS that were responsible for the production of plutonium and tritium during the Cold War with the Soviet Union. Tour participants also learn about the Site's current activities and enduring and future missions. Four historic tours will be offered featuring the former town of Dunbarton, C Reactor and the SRS Curation Facility. These are hosted in partnership with the Savannah River Archaeological Research Program and the SRS Cold War Historic Preservation Program. Tour participants arrive and depart from the SRS Badge Office on SRS Road 1, near New Ellenton. The public tours conclude at the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory where participants learn about the lab and see some of the animals indigenous to SRS. The historic tours conclude at the SRS Curation Facility. Both the historic and public tours are free to members of the public. To register and obtain directions, visit www.srs.gov/general/tour/public.htm. If you experience difficulty registering online, call (803) 952-8994.
