The year 2015 was a major milestone year for the Blue Grass Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant. In October, project employees officially shifted from building the plant as part of the construction phase, to testing the equipment and systems that will operate this facility as part of the systemization phase. Work also progressed on the Explosive Destruction Technology site, which will house the Static Detonation Chamber. Throughout the year, safety remained a top priority, surpassing more than 5 million hours without a lost time accident.
