Not so!
The "waste" is the byproduct of producing Nuclear weapon grade Plutonium.
1 Ton of uranium produces 1 Pound of Plutonium and a whole lot of nasty stuff.
I live and worked 1/2 hours drive south of 570 square miles of contaminated
land, dotted with underground tanks containing 53 million U.S. gallons of
high-level radioactive waste waste.
The latest plan is to Vitrify the waste.
