Inspection finds 7 leaks in Hanford tank

摘要

At least seven leaks have been found in the Hanford Nuclear Reservation's oldest doublewalled radioactive waste storage tank, according to inspectors. The tank at the Washington state facility has had a slow leak since at least 2012 from its inner shell that has been contained by the outer walls. A recent inspection done with video cameras found seven leaks, according to Glyn Trenchard, a tank manager for the Department of Energy.
