Senators back plan to reclassify nuclear waste sludge
A Senate Armed Services Committee provision would let the Energy Department reclassify about 34 million gallons of sludge at Savannah River and other tanks in Washington and Idaho as low level waste. The move, part of a defense bill, aims to keep sludge in tanks by grouting it, potentially saving billions and speeding cleanup, amid objections from Washington and Idaho senators.
