Do you know about the Hanford Nuclear site? This region was established in the early 1940s as a location to develop weapons grade nuclear material for the atomic bombs used in World War II. It continued operation until the 1960s where it was converted into an electrical nuclear plant generating power for the PNW. #wa #washingtonstate #pnw #history #discoverwa #fyp #local #hanford | Pretty Gritty Tours
