Ron -- 

If your landfill was built according to current standards, there wouldn't be
anything to worry about.  

New landfills are required to have a waterproof membrane under them.  It
also has a drainage sytem that collects any moisture that might percolate
through the waste, preventing it from getting into the surrounding soils and
contaminating the local water wells.

Well that's good to know Orrin. But it now looks like we will not be getting
the stuff. After the land fill was awarded the bid, they resinded it from
what they say was because of the consern of the people. I'll bet if the
truth were to be known, it was not because of the consern of the people but
because of the liability and aditional costs to the land fill company. I
don't think they give a hood about the people.

Whenever we refueled the Advanced Test Reactor, we'd carry the new uranium
fuel elements around slung over our shoulder. 

On the other hand, we kept the spent ones under about 20-feet of water.

Would like to ask a couple questions about uranium contaminated waste and it
habbiets and hazzards in a landfill. Seems like one of you guys is or was
involved with this stuff. There is a possibility of some of it being dumped
in out local landfill.
Thanks
