First radioactive waste shipments leave Ohio for Texas
The first of about 2,000 shipments of Cold War era radioactive waste left the Fernald plant northwest of Cincinnati for Andrews Texas. Two canisters hold roughly 20 000 pounds each of radioactive material mixed with fly ash and concrete. The move ends years of local opposition and follows a bid by Waste Control Specialists to store the waste under a nine to ten month shipping plan.

She described being tied with a cord and robbed of her phone, and said Hall called another man who might return. Hall was arrested after a SWAT standoff in Dayton and gave conflicting statements about the assault and drug deal.
