About this map

The Hanford Site (DOE) dominates this landscape along the Columbia River, revealing the specialized infrastructure of the Cold War era. At the center of the industrial footprint sits the Fast Flux Test Facility, supported by a network of substations, towers, and specialized installations like the Weather Station. This 1990s revision captures a transition point where high-tech energy research facilities and a Radioactive Waste Dump exist in immediate proximity to the Mc Nary National Wildlife Refuge. While the western bank is defined by technical sites like Geneva Junction and the 300 Area, the eastern side of the river remains dominated by natural and agricultural features such as Taylor Flat and Savage Island. The contrast between the rigid, fenced Hanford Site Boundary and the shifting Sand Dunes highlights the unique dual nature of this high-security river corridor.
