Hanford's battle with nuclear waste tank SY-101
bubbles, toils, and troubles
by Stewart, Chuck
"The nuclear reactors and separation plants at the Hanford Site in Washington State made the plutonium for the bombs dropped on Japan in 1945. Plutonium production expanded during the Cold War and continued into the late 1980s leaving Hanford with a majority of the national inventory of high-level radioactive waste stored in its underground tanks. This book deals with one specific tank; the million-gallon double-shell tank 241-SY-101 in Hanford's 200-West Area.".
"This narrative presents the whole SY-101 story from the viewpoint of those who lived through it. If it makes people who work in nuclear waste management pause and worry a little when funding, scheduling, or political pressures curtail creativity and prudence, the book will have served its purpose."--BOOK JACKET.
