Houses of the workers construction buildings for the project. Trucks are driven on a highway. Railroad carries material to the Hanford site. An aerial view of the plant with three nuclear reactors. Reactor for the production of plutonium. A plant for the separation of pure metal. Workers work at the plant to convert uranium into plutonium. The workers wear protective gear work. A worker opens the door of the area where plutonium is stored. Two workers bring air tight containers of plutonium on a trolley. A worker makes a note of it and places the containers in a lock. The energy of plutonium is compared with other fuels. The plant for the separation of plutonium from uranium. A map shows different places from which fissionable uranium and plutonium for the production of bombs can be obtained. People read newspapers.

Contractors work on nuclear reactor and a plant for processing nuclear waste in Richland, Washington.

Activities of the Atomic Energy Commission on the Hanford Project in Richland, Washington. The Atomic Energy Commission at the Richland Headquarters for the Hanford work. A General Electric company worker works at machines and equipment. An aerial view of the Hanford plant shows nuclear reactors and separation plants. Workers work at the separation machinery to separate plutonium from uranium. Uranium rods in a wooden box are carried. An animation of a uranium rod shows fissionable uranium content and the process of conversion of non fissionable uranium to plutonium. Workers in an elevator are lowered. Workers at the reactor load the reactor with fuel. Water being used as a coolant in the reactor. A water purification plant. Other workers remove the used up uranium from the rear end of the reactor. The used up fuel is disposed in water tanks. More radioactive materials are carried in a railroad. Materials are taken to another plant. A worker operates a crane. The aluminum cladding is removed. The crane lowers the fuel. The fuel is changed to three useful products inside the plant. Workers at the plant process uranium for further use. Solid uranium is placed in a cylindrical containers. A machine lifts the containers and places it on a flat car. A chart shows injury free days in various plants.

Activities of the Atomic Energy Commission on the Hanford Project in Richland, Washington. A sign reads 'Welcome to N-Reactor Operated For The AEC By General Electric. Hanford Atomic Products Department'. General Electric members work in a communication room during the production of plutonium for any war and for the production of steam in 1959. Men speak over microphones. A man speaks into a telephone and moves towards a set of communication system. He presses a switch to raise an alarm. Many switches, dials, levers, blinking lights seen in the control room. In 1963 U.S. President John F Kennedy arrives at the Hanford nuclear power plant site to break ground for the construction of the nuclear power plant. He disembarks from a helicopter. He gives a speech. Other officials sit at the back on chairs and listen. People gathered in the front clap. An aerial view of the power plant. Interiors of the plant communication room and a generation area. Workers work in the plant. An aerial view of the nuclear power plant and the dual reactor facility.
