Text: The June 21, 1993 issue of Chemical and Engineering news,
published by the American Chemical Society, featured Hanford and the challenge
of cleaning up the mess out there. The article deals mainly with new
technologies being developed, but describes the various problems and
difficulties in finding solutions quite well. There are some pictures but to
me ground contaminated with carbon tetrachloride does not look much different
from normal ground. The pictures of some of the tanks full of waste are
interesting, however.
