"Bechtel National and AECOM have agreed to pay $125 million to resolve allegations that the companies falsely represented and charged the Department of Energy for goods and services that may not have met high standards for nuclear facilities. Bechtel and subcontractor AECOM are building the Hanford nuclear reservation Waste Treatment Plant, or vit plant."

I wonder if the LANS and LLNS Presidents will have "all hands" meetings on this $125 million "False Claims Act" lawsuit settlement since it involves Bechtel and URS, both of which are LANS and LLNS corporate members. It is a "lessons learned" event, and undermines public confidence in DOE Contractors.
