3-hour power outage planned Thursday morning in part of Savannah
Savannah residents and commuters along 37th Street near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard can expect some power disruptions Thursday. Georgia Power Company crews will be removing tree limbs that have been impacting overhead power lines and causing service disruptions near West 38th Street, according to a Georgia Power Press release.

"As part of the regular maintenance work of our electric grid system, Georgia Power maintains and protects vegetation in the right-of-way both under and over-head power lines," the press release said. "This maintenance work requires the regular pruning of trees and limbs. Vegetation management is crucial to limiting outages and quickly restoring service when they occur." The outages will impact customers and traffic lights where 37th Street intersects with MLK Jr. Boulevard, Montgomery Street and Barnard Street, the press release said.

Savannah River Site builds final nuclear waste vault for cleanup
Savannah River Site workers are building a storage space the size of a four-story building to contain the last of the site's Cold War-era nuclear waste. Being built with concrete and steel, Saltstone Disposal Unit 12 is expected to be the last large storage container for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management to safely dispose of the waste, according to Savannah River Mission Completion. Cleanup: SRS cuts 300 waste canisters to speed nuclear waste disposal "Legacy waste cleanup is a priority for EM, and the SDUs play a key role in the SRS cleanup mission, especially now that the Salt Waste Processing Facility is treating waste at record levels," said Chuck Comeau, the DOE Savannah River Operations Office's federal project director. "SWPF has greatly accelerated processing the waste, which means the SDUs must be ready to store the final product." Salt waste processing scrubs the most radioactive parts of the liquid waste, which is then mixed with inert materials to form a grout. The grout is poured into an SDU, making it easier to store when it hardens. SRS has stored nuclear waste on-site since the 1950s, when the site's chief mission was to produce nuclear materials
