    I know there was a fire and it was the most expensive industrial clean up until then. They also had some sort of large leak of radioactive material outside that became aerosolized when the wind blew the dirt. If our snowy mountains can turn pink from a dust storm in Mongolia i am sure anywhere east of the flats got a fair amount of radioactive material dust.

    Is this book about FBI/EPA raid and what happen afterward with the cover up?
