Hanford burial ground cleanup coming near Columbia River

Well this ought to keep people up at night
"The 618-11 Burial Ground is adjacent to the parking lot of Energy Northwest's Columbia Generating Station, the commercial nuclear power plant on leased Hanford land north of Richland."
Hope the burial grounds are not as unstable as some of the tanks.

@lilly.. the Hanford site has such a long long history and the cleanup, dismantling etc has been going on forever. we could spend a whole period just on Hanford
by dean 2/4/2012 3:02:31 AM

@dean I didn't realize the waste sites were so close to the NPP by the river
by lillymunster 2/4/2012 3:03:34 AM

www.hanford.gov the areas seem rather small in comparison but it will take years to perform the tasks
by dean 2/4/2012 3:04:50 AM

@lilly.. take a look at the list of links for other areas on the left side of that linnk
by dean 2/4/2012 3:05:19 AM

@dean bo was talking about the mix of things in the tanks, solids, liquids, chemicals and nuclear material.
by lillymunster 2/4/2012 3:06:03 AM

Are there tanks within those two sites or are they just burial pits?
by lillymunster 2/4/2012 3:08:32 AM

www.energy-northwest.com article on the site.. back in the early 80's I went up to the then "wipps FACILITIES" there were originally more than one under construction. I was going to work at one of the plants that was a PWR but it was never finished .... huge mess..
by dean 2/4/2012 3:10:12 AM

I believe they are just buried waste @lilly

www.hanford.gov the N reactor article is interesting.. chernobyl was similar design only with no safety features like the containment building

how do they cocoon a reactor? Ah you posted that while I was reading

@Majj why ,when concerned citizens raise an issue in the public domain , so they get labelled 'activists'

Per Ron's post below, is there any way to find out if this same model of steam generator has been installed anywhere else?

skimmer tank at 4 leaking again
fukushima-diary.comby lillymunster 2/4/2012 2:47:53 PM

Have a bunch of tweets from Happy, trying to compile them
by lillymunster 2/4/2012 3:05:49 PM

Happy Tweets - these follow tweets posted days before in the fukushimadiary link talking about unit 4's leaking pipes
But I still can not identify the location of the other like a water leak in Unit 4 (^ O ^) Yappa ~Tsu now. So I do not have clearly grasp the cause was when the water level of the Sukimasaji but until now has dropped. I did not go down or down ... or unstable. Will not leak from?
Perhaps there is a place that contains the cracks in the pipe under the influence of salinity seawater was placed first aftershock and until now: a continued. If you do not look for a place may not be found, including leaking in the PCV, but I think from the first pedestal, Or did the study ... again.
Now I'm coming out full of tank water leak still continues after water treatment and pollution does not properly measure 2: Continued. What 's not mistake stance to support anti-leakage when in the first place. From the way it should be done is fundamentally any number of measures can not be helped first because I took an emergency.
I think I would do a collection tank that initially not in time for the manufacture of the tank tank specification, should have been to design and fabricate properly from the middle: three followed. Joint of 2m height position'm welded structures should be at least from the bottom tank.
If you feel so far away will expect you to check bolt tank located on the campus of the total number from now ...: 4 more. Difficult because it contained contaminated water even during welding to it ... from now. I can not keep contaminated water is a long period of time that I was muttering 's tank before.
I think I'm the dose after, 2000mSv / h of the line β is field work is in the presentation I'm not surprised because I knew from before, it is true, and some more because the upper limit of the measuring instrument 5: Continued. I'm afraid I do not know what we have or how much dose it there.
Followed by six lines: β is the workers I've been working under the mask or goggles entirely, or to protect the eyes from the top of the mask wearing dark side because there is impact to the skin and eyes. S now much more anti-ahead was when leakage anyway.
7 continued: I have to say white TEPCO to report teaching degree or NISA also leak, the scene I'm have not been solved fundamentally only are exchanging each other ... but the paper of the sentence. I think that was laughed at by people ... who sandbag gain increases and tightening measures even after a time leak forever.
