RE: Radioactive waste near New Mexico water supply not a health risk, officials say
If a more pre-active role was taken by the residents with careful inclusion of broadcast businesses, internet exposure of photo's perhaps the DOE will step up to the plate and move more quickly to clean up the mess. However, it still has to GO somewhere. Idealy, it would be put into no corroding contianers, iron cylilnders covered with copper jackets and buried wa-a-ay down in the Carslbad Caverns. 1944 was a different world and I'm sure they knew about the prpblems and dangers but they really didn;t have the capabioity to store the waste the way they do now. It does serve to illustrate that Nuclear trash is a problem for then and now. Gov-Nuclear pllans include waste recycling on a large basis, but will it be enough? Remains to be seen, no pun intended. boino
