Hanford 300 Area

Hanford’s 300 Area was home to the fuel manufacturing operations at the Site as well as the experimental and laboratory facilities. At one time, six small scale nuclear reactors were located in the 300 Area which is only a few miles from the city of Richland. The 300 Area is adjacent to the Columbia River and is also right next to the main north-south road that takes many Hanford employees from their Tri-Cities homes to their work locations at the Site.
