It has been raining in Northern New Mexico this week, providing many blessings
of moisture and delaying the proposed venting of radioactive tritium from Los Alamos
National Laboratory (LANL), at least for now. Importantly, the New Mexico Environment
Department continues its review of LANL’s application for “temporary authorization” to
vent up to 30,000 curies of tritium into the air from four Flanged Tritium Waste
Containers, or FTWCs.
