Radioactive nuclear waste burial ground in Pennsylvania to be cleaned up

But now after decades of lawsuits and public outcry, the federal government is getting ready to finally clean it up.

uhh... careful with that train... please? not like last time...

Agree with residents that removal and transport adds risk. Digging it all up and then dumping it in Utah isn't solving the problem, but just shifting it elsewhere. Also, what's being gained? Are they planning to build homes there? Sure, hope not. Leaving it undeveloped would be better, but it's already that way now. Seems to be another jobs creation program to keep people busy.

More to come like this in the future. Removal and Transport is not a solution. Claims of transmutation ???

Tell Israel to clean up their mess. They built their nuclear weapons program on the backs of pa residents

Wow. She is a 71 year old cancer survivor who with others cancer survivor, or maybe not currently survivors. have been fighting to make this have a better outcome. Does your rude comment make you feel better? A superior person. Well I'm here to tell you it's not true. You look petty, mean, and small.

Why not jettison the radioactive nuclear waste on a rocket into outer space off the earth where it would keep drifting further and further away from earth? or send it to France for disposal in France? SpaceX will take the nuclear waste.
