RICHLAND — A meeting on the new Manhattan Project National Historical Park is scheduled in Kennewick on Thursday.
Federal officials on Tuesday will have a signing ceremony in Washington, D.C., to establish the new national park, which will include Hanford’s historic B Reactor.
The Tri-City Herald says the park will also include Manhattan Project facilities at Los Alamos, New Mexico, and Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
The Manhattan Project National Historical Park will be part of a small percentage of national parks focusing on science and technology.
