Comment Title: to: SRNS gets the cash
what does that mean? SRNS could get approx $520,000.00 and the clean up project is no longer a project? Curious!

Comment Title: SRNS Gets the Cash
All these job fair show that they can't find enough qualified people, or people who only work until Sept, 20, 2011. If they can't come up with 2000 people ready to hit he ground all this will mean that the biggest benefactor is Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, which will skim a healthy administrative fee (like 20%) right ff the top of the $1.6 billion in "stimulus" money going to SRS. A sweet deal for them if there ever was one.
