Err Now Pay Later: West Valley Waste Debacle
Congress revisits the West Valley plutonium and uranium reprocessing plant disaster. The privately run facility operated 1966-1972 and closed in 1976. 600000 gallons of high level waste remain uncatalogued and in tanks likely to corrode. Disposal costs could reach 600 million and liability is disputed among NFL New York State and the federal government.
