MEWS FROM THE NORTHWEST
Northwest town has decided to use
radioactive waste for fill dirt in St. Louis

decides to charge tee for
disposing nuclear waste
ST LOUIS (AP) The tiny
farming community of Ford.
Wash . may St Louis dis
pose of radioactive waste left
over at various sites from the
making of the alomit twmb
Four resident# of Ford toured
the St Louis area ia-st week At
the end of the tour they were
encouraged St. Louis wants to
get rid of its radioactive waste,
and Ford. located about 20 miles
northwest of Spokane, has a
hunker it needs to fill
"We’re looking fora win-win
situation and St fouls may be
it." said Lois Hoglin. leader of
the group from Ford "You've
got sites you want cleaned of
radioactive material We've got a
site that is Hi eased to take this
waste as part of our cleanup
effort,”
Ford ts home to the Dawn
Mining Co, and its uranium pro
cessing mill When the mill
closed in 1981. it left behind a
giant hole that was a I Knit 10 per
cent filled with low-level
radioae! tvo wastes.
The hole is t»5 feet deep and
covers i!H acres ft is lined with
black plastic, and has filled par
tially with water Residents fear
contamination may leak from
the hole into ground water
"Dawn dicin'! have any
money lo i lean H up." said
fteglin There was always the
possibility they could walk and
lease us with nothing ”
Instead, the company and
community came up with an
innovative solution They
would fill the hole with more
low-level waste, charging a fee
to those who had waste to get
rid of. and then c ap is All the
money would go into a trust
fund to be used to clean up the
Dawn Mining property
But Ford is he
about what kind of waste* it
accept*
VVe don't want hoes v metals,
we don't want pesticides, we
don't want H its." Hegiin said
St Louis has about a million
cubic yards of radioactive waste
at the three sites and on some
roadways linking them The
Energy Department estimates
the waste would fill Busch Sta
dium, although the radioactive
‘
pressed into a block the size of a
hot dog stand.
The waste originated at the

The Department of Energy ini
tially was leaning toward build

some waste from residential
properties this year, and sending
it to Envirocare, a landfill in the

new peispec live to the work
"Now there‘s t oinpetition on
the marketplace." said Adler.
Sending all the St bouts
waste to I m irncnre could cost
as much as a billion dollars, the
Energy Department estimates

The residents of Ford say they
could take the waste off St.
I.ouis' hands cheaper than Envi

"We could clean up two sites
for the price of one. ' tleglin

sitting here for the rest of your
life. We could give you hack
