Bomb's Away, Millions A Day
To obtain information about Hanford, citizens must confront a continuing culture of secrecy.
For a half century, Hanford produced plutonium in reactors that pulled Columbia River water through intakes such as this to cool the core. For decades, the water was dumped back in the river laden with radionuclides.
WPSR educates the public on Hanford issues through programs that include boat tours down the Columbia Reach.
