Does anyone suppose that serious nuclear waste would be left exposed to above ground fire?

If its the secondary 'medical' nuclear waste, I wouldn't be too concerned.

I’m not really sure of the difference, to be honest. It says the waste was from a meltdown. Do you think it could be the medical kind too?

I call BS.

Rocketdyne tested ROCKET engines at that site. I could see the glow of the static engine tests from my house in the SFV.
When it was a quiet night, I could hear the roar of the engines.

I knew people that worked there & NEVER was there any mention of a meltdown or nuclear items being there.
