# Jay Keck from the South Carolina Wildlife Federation

 May 15, 2026 by [Westinghouse Electric Company](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/columbia-community-news/author/westinghouse)

Westinghouse recently welcomed Jay Keck from the South Carolina Wildlife Federation to our Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility in Hopkins as part of our partnership with the Wildlife and Industry Together (W.A.I.T.) program. Our environmental engineers had the opportunity to connect on ongoing initiatives across the site.

As part of this effort, bird boxes were donated and will be installed to help protect local endangered species and support wildlife habitats in the area.
