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.
