A radioactive wasp nest with radiation levels ten times the regulatory limit was found at the Savannah River Site, a former US nuclear weapons facility, but officials confirmed there was no environmental or public health impact, attributing the contamination to legacy radioactive residues from Cold War activities.
A radioactive wasp nest was discovered at the Savannah River nuclear waste site in South Carolina, containing radiation levels over ten times the legal limit. The nest was safely disposed of, and no contamination was found in the surrounding area, though the origin of the radioactive waste remains unclear. The site, historically involved in nuclear weapons production, is now focused on environmental cleanup and research.
Workers at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina discovered a wasp nest with radiation levels ten times above federal limits, likely contaminated by residual radioactive material from the site's historical nuclear weapons production. The nest was removed and disposed of as radioactive waste, with officials assuring no current leak or danger outside the facility. However, watchdog groups express concern over the lack of detailed information about the contamination source and potential risks.
Workers at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, a former nuclear weapons manufacturing facility, discovered a wasp nest with radiation levels ten times above federal limits. The nest was removed and disposed of as radioactive waste, likely contaminated by residual site radioactivity. Officials assure there is no current leak or danger outside the facility, but watchdog groups call for more transparency about the contamination source and potential risks.
