On the edge of Washington state, just a few miles from the wonderful Columbia River, boiling radioactive sludge escapes from a massive underground reservoir called B-109. It has been polluting soil and groundwater ever since. The Department of Energy (DOE), the company in charge of this problem, is doing nothing about it. It keeps dripping. That's the activity of Hanford, home to the nation's largest high-level radioactive waste sink, worth 56 million gallons found in 177 large underground tanks that have exceeded their nearly six-decade lifespan.
