Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On June 17, 2013, EnergySolutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) notified Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, that the Company’s Board of Directors decided to dismiss Ernst & Young as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective June 17, 2013.

Ernst & Young’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and neither such report was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

In connection with the audits of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 and in the subsequent interim period through June 17, 2013, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young would have caused Ernst & Young to make reference to the matter in its report.

The Company has provided Ernst & Young with a copy of the above disclosures. The Company has requested Ernst & Young to furnish it a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of Ernst & Young’s letter is included as Exhibit 16.1 to this Report.

(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Company’s Board of Directors decided to appoint Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on June 17, 2013. Deloitte will act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 and through June 17, 2013, the Company did not consult with Deloitte regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K).
