Nuclear waste to be dumped into Cape Cod and turn ocean radioactive
Story by Lauren Acton-Taylor For Dailymail.Com • 20h

The pristine waters off Cape Cod could become radioactive for as long as a month after a new study found that nuclear waste being dumped from the tony peninsula has a 'high probability' of lingering.

The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution conducted the study to find out how likely it would be that discharged wastewater from the Pilgrim Nuclear PowerStation in Plymouth, Massachusetts would spread into Cape Cod Bay, whose surrounding communities include multimillion-dollar mansions.
 
'Our numerical simulations suggest it is unlikely that the bulk of plume waters will leave the Bay in less than a month,' said the study's leader Irina Rypina.

The dumping comes as part of the power station's decommissioning, and the study found that its wastewaters could drift near the shores and coastal waters of Dennis, Wellfleet, and Provincetown.

Why aren't the green terrorists howling and gnashing their teeth over this?  They've got to get active.  The governor is too busy protecting illegal immigrants to take time for this.

Why would one dump nuclear waste off Cape Cod? 

The place to dump nuclear waste is in a mid-ocean subduction zone, in a form made solid, non-water soluble, and heavy, so that it will sink to the bottom and over the course of geological time be dragged into the earth's crust by plate techtonics.

We dumped Obama off Cape Cod so why not nuclear waste?
