GAO report describes cleanup progress at Moab Mill Site
A new report released by the U.S. Government Accountability Office states that the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management (EM) has disposed of more than 16 million tons of radioactive and hazardous waste from the Moab Mill Site. While cleanup continues at the Cold War–era uranium ore processing site in southeastern Utah, a plan for the next phase of groundwater remediation is still needed, according to the GAO.

Using well-established nuclear engineering methods, an interesting new radiation imaging technique has been developed. Scattered neutrons and photons have been found to carry detailed information about the dynamics of the internal structure of an opaque object. Employing coded apertures and systems of collimators, scattered radiation fields have been examined to determine the extent and quality of the image information carried on these fields. A medical application of the results of this research has shown that movements of the myocardial surface can be detailed for diagnostic purposes. The success of this research effort substantiates the belief that nuclear engineering educational groups should more fully explore their own potential for growth and contribution in neighboring disciplines.
