Another key Hanford subcontractor proved the efficacy of the Hanford Concerns Council by allowing employee safety concern cases to be heard and meditated by members of the Hanford community. The council, developed in 2005 partially by GAP, provides a forum for arbitration of employee concerns about safety, health and the environment. GAP’s Hanford program has since split off to form its own organization, Hanford Challenge.
Currently Hanford Challenge is taking part in a series of meeting across the Columbia River Valley to discuss clean up issues with the Department of Energy, the EPA, and the Washington State Department of Ecology.
