Y-12 National Security Complex

In 2007, Phoenix was awarded the contract to construct two, 2,000,000-gallon Composite Elevated Tanks (CET) for the Y-12 National Security Complex in Oak Ridge, TN, in partnership with URS (formerly Washington Group International). The project afforded Phoenix the opportunity to showcase full capabilities in the CET market, adhering to stringent quality assurance and quality control measures as well as the intensive security demanded by a project of this magnitude.

Both tanks were completed on time and solidified Phoenix’s reputation for total construction capabilities for large Composite Elevated Tank on the most demanding stage. They have been online since 2010, proudly serving a facility largely responsible for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Nuclear Security Enterprise.
