Los Alamos Lab to let go of 80 contract workers

Los Alamos National Laboratory is letting go of some of its workers. The Los Alamos Monitor reports lab director Charlie McMillan said 80 contractor positions would be eliminated. McMillan made the announcement Wednesday in a memo sent to all employees.

The lab terminated 60 employees in April and 557 others left the lab in March as part of a voluntary separation program. McMillan has scheduled a meeting on June 27 to discuss the lab's workforce with all employees.
