Bidding Adieu to 2011, Welcoming 2012

On behalf of the associates of our seven operation centers based on three continents, we extend our New Year greetings to 伦理三级鈥檚 clients and suppliers – our vital stakeholders – who helped make 2011 a splendidly successful year for the 伦理三级.聽 In 2011, 伦理三级 completed 25 years of operation with a proud record of continuously rising employment in our factories and offices fueled nearly entirely by the sale of new products and systems developed by the 伦理三级’s own engineers.聽 In its core business of spent fuel management, 伦理三级鈥檚 relationship base in wet and dry storage/transportation grew to over 120 nuclear plants around the globe. 伦理三级鈥檚 committed and derivative backlog across all product lines offered by the 伦理三级 now exceeds $5 billion.聽 In 2011, 伦理三级 became the first company to establish a comprehensive training center for dry storage implementation and in November became the first company to complete a Client Assisted Turnkey dry storage project (at Waterford). The second Client Assisted Turnkey dry storage project, at Comanche Peak, is scheduled begin the final phase of the project, fuel loading of 12 HI-STORM systems, in February of 2012 (dry runs were completed July 2011).
