Navarro Nevada Environmental Services: Same Faces, Sharpened Vision

November 17, 2009

The environmental cleanup contract at the U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration Nevada Site Office recently underwent a changing of the guard. On October 1, 2009, Navarro Nevada Environmental Services, LLC (NNES) officially succeeded the Stoller-Navarro Joint Venture (SNJV) in taking responsibility for environmental characterization and remediation at contaminated sites on the Nevada Test Site and portions of the Nevada Test and Training Range, to include the Tonopah Test Range.

NNES is comprised of two companies, Navarro Research and Engineering and INTERA Incorporated, both of which were a part of the SNJV contract. “We are very grateful to the Nevada Site Office for the opportunity to see the work through and to keep looking for ways to work smarter and add more value to the site’s missions,” said Dave Taylor, NNES program manager. Since the work force remained intact, NNES management and staff have an opportunity with the new contract to sharpen the vision of successfully completing major portions of environmental management work at the test site.

“The NNES vision, To be the company and employer of choice for environmental services to the Nevada Site Office, is possible thanks to the dedicated professionals who we are so very fortunate are part of this program. Our commitment to each other is to hold ourselves accountable for delivering excellence in everything we do,” Taylor said.
