Fenwal Information

Location

Ashland, Massachusetts

In 1967 and 1968, National Lead of Ohio (Fernald) asked Fenwal to conduct tests aimed at determining the capabilities of Fenwal’s fire extinguishing equipment for suppressing fires originating in uranium contaminated magnesium. The tests were conducted at Fenwal facilities and involved small amounts of uranium. Some Fenwal employees later traveled to Fernald to service fire suppression equipment.
