Lab workers turn out in force to clean up

Richard Trout, left, Larry Bays, of Facilities and Waste Operations (FWO) Division, and Francis Humbertson of KSL Services, pick up litter during the lunch hour last week on East Jemez Road near the Royal Crest Mobile Home park. The three, along with Kate Salazar, of FWO, background right, are participating in the Great Garbage Grab (at the Lab) beautification event. More than 300 Lab workers have signed up for the clean-up event, which continues through Friday. The litter clean-up and beautification is being held in conjunction with National Volunteer Week and the Lab's celebration of Earth Day. The events are sponsored by the Risk Reduction and Environmental Stewardship (RRES), Facilities and Waste Operations (FWO) and Communications and External Relations (CER) divisions.

Facilities and Waste Operations (FWO) Division Leader Tony Stanford, right, joined other FWO employees in picking up trash from around Technical Area 63 last week. FWO is one of the co-sponsors of the Great Garbage Grab (at the Lab). With Stanford is Debbie Lewis of Integrated Business Systems (FWO-IBS). As of this morning, five Lab organizations and KSL Services had reported to FWO picking up more than 110 bags of litter. Lab personnel can still sign up to participate in the clean-up event by calling Debbi Wersonick of CRO at 7-7870, or they can print out a Great Garbage Grab (at the Lab) sign up sheet from the FWO Web page, complete it and send to Wersonick. A Great Garbage Grab at the Lab Web page can be found at http://fwo.lanl.gov/ online. For more information, also see the April 19 Daily Newsbulletin. Photo by Michelle Roybal, FWO
