Hanford's New Waste Grouting Plan

The Department of Energy proposes a new plan to expedite cleanup at Hanford nuclear site. They aim to transform low-level radioactive waste from the vitrification plant into grout offsite for disposal, allowing the plant to process more waste and save money. Recent tests show this waste is less radioactive than expected, making this approach efficient and safe. Public input is open until late April for the state permit on vit plant waste grouting.
