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.

A method to determine the probability of a turbine missile striking a specified region of a nuclear power plant uses the concept of geometrical probability of a missile trajectory to intersect a target area. The geometrical probability is derived as a function of the missile exit parameters and the plant geometry. The method is general and can be applied to two- or three-dimensional problems. A computer code, TURBMSL, has been developed by the United Engineers & Constructors to obtain the numerical results. The effectiveness and the reliability of the present method has been demonstrated.
