Comment on Long Island's decommissioned nuclear power plant

Comments

sorry but five MILLION pounds of nuclear waste?

how does that work? sounds like a lot.

I would assume that it's not just the fuel, but also the construction materials etc. It's in the article that they had to grind down the surfaces of the spent fuel pool, the residue from that would probably weigh a lot on its own!
