Nuclear Plant Waste Found in Landfill
LCG, March 14, 2002- Bags containing radioactive waste were found in Pennsylvania's Pottstown Landfill in Montgomery County. Although these bags emitted only a very low level of radiation and posed no real health risk, waste from the Limerick nuclear plant should never have made it into the landfill at all.The five yellow bags were found to contain low-level radioactive garbage like plastic tape and gloves, reaching at most 0.35 millirem per hour of emitted radiation, which is about four percent that of a normal chest x-ray. A landfill employee noticed the bags, color-coded to show their radioactive nature, and prevented the dumping.Even low-level radioactive waste cannot be stored in regular landfills, and the bags were sent back to the Limerick plant, which is subsequently changing its waste procedure. The plant will check all trash twice, and only allowed scheduled and signed-for trash collection. With the full cooperation of the Limerick plant, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission are investigating how the waste could have made it to the landfill in the first place.
