Environmental benefits from regulatory compliance at the Durango, Colorado UMTRA project site
Description
Radioactivity contaminated uranium mill wastes located in Durango, Colorado are slated for cleanup and stabilization in the near future. As part of this cleanup action, at least 18 permits/approvals must be obtained. Compliance with these permits/approvals has provided unanticipated benefits. For this remedial action, compliance will enhance wildlife habitat and improve its availability to the public at large, enhance riparian habitat, and has already yielded exciting new archaeological finds
