The Hanford Site is a decommissioned nuclear production complex located in south-central Washington State, along the Columbia River. Established during World War II as part of the Manhattan Project, the site was primarily used for the production of plutonium for nuclear weapons. The most notable product was the plutonium used in the "Fat Man" bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan.
