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.

Measurements were made of the viscosity of Columbia River basalt and basalt-urania melts containing up to 18 wt% UO2 in the temperature range 1360 to 1960°C. A concentric cylinder-type viscometer was used. The combined data were fit by the equation, where η is viscosity in poise, T is temperature in degrees Kelvin, and X is the weight percent UO2 in the melt.
