A former examiner with the Department of Labor program to compensate ill Hanford workers plans to bring her concerns to the Tri-Cities today.

Attorney Anne Block formerly worked in Seattle for the federal Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program and now is teaming with Hanford Challenge to help workers and their survivors receive compensation.

As a federal employee she witnessed arbitrary and capricious agency actions that she believes led to inappropriate delay or denial of claims, she said in a statement from Hanford Challenge.

She plans to be at the Hanford State of the Site meeting at 7 p.m. today at the Red Lion Hotel in Kennewick.
