Perma-Fix Environmental Services Inc. has received a final Dangerous Mixed Waste Permit Renewal for its Perma-Fix Northwest (PFNW) Mixed Waste Facility in Richland, Washington. Issued by the Washington Department of Ecology and effective January 1, 2026, the permit significantly expands PFNW’s permitted capacity, approximately tripling its ability to process liquid mixed waste. The renewal updates the facility’s original 1999 permit to reflect current treatment units, safety systems, and operational practices. This regulatory milestone enables PFNW to better support long-term nuclear cleanup objectives, including work at the Hanford site, and positions it as the only permitted mixed waste treatment facility near Hanford. The approval follows an extensive review process, including a 64-day public comment period and the issuance of a Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement.
