My Last Days as a DOE Intern
Wow, this summer really has gone by fast! I started the month of June as an intern for the Department of Energy Office of Legacy Management in Grand Junction, CO. And now it is over already. I was able to visit some really cool sites that are managed by DOE-LM and by DOE-EM. All in all, I went to 10 different sites in 5 states. Now that is a lot of traveling! A lot of those were day trips though and were relatively close to GJ. Some of the longer trips were to Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico. Here is a complete list of my site visits in chronological order:
–Green River, UT
–Grand Junction Disposal Cell
–Central Nevada Test Area
–Shoal Site, NV
–Monticello, UT
–Rifle, CO
–Uranium Leasing Program Sites
–Shiprock, NM
–Monument Valley, AZ
–Moab, UT
Yesterday I completed my research project about compliance issues of uranium in the underlying aquifer at the Old Rifle Processing site and I gave a PowerPoint presentation to my mentor and most of the other federal staff here. After my talk, my mentor asked me “Have you considered working for the federal government?”
That made me happy! Now I must bid you adieu. Good-bye!


It sounds like you had a great time! Congratulations on being done!
this looks like a sweet internship.. who did you contact about it???
