RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES - Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) / Safety Professional - Construction/Industrial Hygiene (KIEWIT202609IH104)

Serve as a Contract Certified Industrial Hygienist (CIH) / Safety Professional to support construction activities at the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site (SRS) near Aiken, South Carolina. This client-facing role is with ProSidian and supports Kiewit within its Contractor-Controlled Construction Zone. It is not a direct employment position with Kiewit, and the work area is not a standalone Kiewit facility.

This role is for a remote CIH who can review and supplement the IH Work and critique the approach to an issue or problem on the Kiewit Savannah River construction site.

Kiewit’s responsibilities include demolition; interior and exterior modifications; ventilation, gas, and electrical systems; labs; utility systems; and installation of production equipment. The subproject, scheduled for 2028, includes establishing an SRNS presence in 2024 via Task Order No. 1, supporting the plutonium-processing project.

This helps build the High-Fidelity Training and Operations Center (HFTOC), a 103,000-square-foot non-nuclear facility for training future operators using surrogate materials, like-for-like equipment, and simulated radiological controls before SRPPF begins operations.

The project involves demolishing and replacing concrete floors, structural modifications, and installing ventilation, process-gas, electrical systems, high-fidelity production lines, labs for material characterization, receipt inspection, salt-processing training, and utilities.

• The project involves demolishing and replacing concrete flooring, modifying the building's interior and exterior, and installing ventilation, process-gas, and electrical systems. It also includes procuring, installing, integrating, testing, and commissioning a high-fidelity production line, along with a material-characterization laboratory, receipt-inspection laboratory, salt-processing training line, balance-of-plant systems, and supporting utilities.
• The CIH will combine expertise in occupational health science, construction safety leadership, regulatory adherence, contractor oversight, and risk management to prevent injuries, illnesses, releases, property damage, and operational incidents. The role demands regular on-site presence, meticulous documentation, sound technical judgment, and strong coordination with ProSidian, Kiewit, Savannah River Nuclear Solutions (SRNS), DOE/NNSA representatives, subcontractors, occupational medicine, and site industrial hygiene, safety, emergency management, and radiological control teams.
