PIKETON, Ohio — The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management has awarded the Portsmouth Infrastructure Support Services contract to AIS Technical Services LLC, a small business based in Tempe, Arizona, the department announced Friday.
Under the contract, AIS Technical Services will perform infrastructure support services at the Portsmouth Site, including the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in Piketon, according to the department.
