ANL is one of the nation's oldest scientific research laboratories, established in 1946 to develop nuclear reactors for peaceful purposes. ANL was sponsored by the Atomic Energy Commission (predecessor agency to DOE), but operated by the University of Chicago. Today, ANL is funded by the Department of Energy's Office of Science and managed by the University of Chicago Argonne LLC. Cleanup plans have been established to decommission and demolish a former fuel component research building and two former research reactors. Moreover, plans are also in place to remove and dispose of irradiated fuel specimens from the Alpha Gamma Hot Cell Facility and any associated radioactive transuranic waste (TRU). Funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) have helped further this cleanup project. The cleanup project will be managed by representatives at the Argonne National Laboratory.
