Federal health officials agree radioactive waste in St. Louis area may be linked to cancer
RT's Ashlee Banks interviewed Beyond Nuclear's Kevin Kamps about this news.
After the ATSDR report was published, Beyond Nuclear did a post going into more detail on the Cold Water Creek and West Lake Landfill radioactive contamination disaster in metro St. Louis, MO.
These radioactive wastes are among the very oldest of the Atomic Age, generated by the processing of Belgian Congo uranium ore in the earliest days of the Manhattan Project, in the early 1940s.
