That’s about six or seven gasoline tank trucks worth, to put it in perspective.

Thanks for adding perspective - that doesn't seem like such a 'small' spill anymore...

Compared to the volume of groundwater under that site, it IS a small spill.

A gasoline trailer holds about 8,000 gallons. So a 400,000 gallon spill is about 50 gasoline trucks.

NOTE! The writers NEVER identified the contamination levels (concentration of the tritium NOR total amount of millicuries NOR any other units) - “contaminated radioactive water” also occurs when banana pulp solutions - radioactive with K40 are released into the commercial sewage centers.

Yes - that is an extreme example. But a real one. This water may be meaningless - we can't tell without the numbers, not the flow rate (seepage rate through the rock) until it gets diluted by the spring Mississippi flood runoffs.)

Then New Orleans racists will complain and sue about minority neighborhoods getting radiated from colonialist whites waste disposal!
