Virginia Grants Pass for Two Nuclear Waste Trucks
Virginia officials issued permits for two of four trucks carrying radioactive waste to pass through the state after confirmation from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. A permit engineer said safety checks were ongoing, with two more trucks awaiting documentation from Chem Nuclear Inc. The company ships about 20 percent of East Coast radioactive waste and buries it near Barnwell. County evacuation plans cover growth to 53,000 residents and near the H B Robinson plant with routes tested for mock drills.
