Graveyard for Nuclear Debris Expands

Publication Date: 19-NOV-08
Author: Peter Reina
Format: HTML

    
Description:
More than 250 trucks, troop carriers, excavators and even helicopters lie rusting in a corner of the Buriakovka low- and intermediate-radioactive solid-waste site in the empty countryside some 25 kilometerss from Chernobyl. Used in the emergency after the accident, the vehicles will lie for de­cades in the field until they, or their rust, cease to radiate harmfully. The fate of the vehicles' drivers is not hard to guess.
