The SRS Community Reuse Organization (SRSCRO) was established by Congress in 1993 for the purpose of mitigating the impact of downsizing of the Department of Energy's Savannah River Site through support of regional adjustment planning and promotion of area economic diversification. The overall mission is to create an environment conducive to technology-based start-ups, business expansion, and the attraction of new ventures to the SRSCRO region. SRSCRO's region of responsibility covers the five counties of Richmond and Columbia in Georgia, and Aiken, Allendale, and Barnwell in South Carolina. SRSCRO serves as the community interface organization for DOE-SR with respect to DOE supported area economic development initiatives.

SRSCRO has a community based Board of Directors which includes community leaders from education, industry, business, banking, area economic development organizations, and state and local governments. The Board members are selected equally from the states of Georgia and South Carolina.

SRSCRO also serves as the DOE public/community interface for the review of proposals for the use of excess DOE-SR equipment to create local community jobs and/or enhance area economic development opportunities. Proposals for use of excess DOE equipment for area economic development are submitted through SRSCRO for review and approval and further processing through DOE.
