Yikes! Best do some research on this to see what the consequences may be! Are we safe, I wonder?

The incident occurred in the 200 East Area near the PUREX (Plutonium Uranium Extracation Plant) Facility... Washington state.

Pretty sure after the feds step in we won’t hear anymore about it. Time to buy a geiger counter...

Thanks for posting. This doesn’t say definitively that there has been a collapse but I guess the ground subsiding may be indicative of a likely collapse.

It is reported on that Hanford alert as though soil subsidence above and along the location of a buried rail tunnel (used to transport plutonium during its production process) has indicated the tunnel collapsed. Therefore, it is assumed for safety sake, that dangerous pollutants in the tunnel, may have been expelled as dust, prompting the lock-down indoors.
Plutonium dust is about as deadly a material as humans can come in contact with in such a situation. A single one micron dust particle lodged in a lung will kill you.

Is it true Hanford operated for years (forever?) without a containment building? And that it's the filthiest nuclear site in the country?

“Hot radioactive trains”?
Must have put some super chargers on them.
I had a “hot car” when I was young.
Didn’t have a garage and it sat out in the sun all day.
