Holliday replaces Pete Miner, who has been named as Regulatory Manager for Advanced Technology’s Lead Cascade Project. Miner will report to Jim Morgan, Manager, Lead Cascade Project.

The Lead Cascade Project is being undertaken to demonstrate the performance and reliability of gaseous centrifuge technology, while reducing cost, schedule and regulatory risks. Contingent upon USEC reaching agreement with the Department of Energy on the rights of centrifuge technology and the use of DOE facilities, the Project will build, test and operate centrifuge machines in a Lead Cascade to determine the reliability and cost for potential future plant operations.

Va. He is a member of the American Nuclear Society.
