Why Northern Ontario ended in radioactive garbage Koruna – started in July

The Transport Ministry of Ontario says that some Radioactive waste from an old mill near Lake Nipping It has already made its way in the Sarnia region.

The material was sitting in the mill for 70 years and should have been sent to Sudbari originally. This resulted in a one-year public outrage from members of the Naren and Hyiman community-a settlement of 400 people.

Tailing contains low-level radiation from the small amount of uranium contained in the ore.

On Wednesday, it was announced that the province had already transferred its plans, where the waste would be finished.

According to the province, Korunna, located in St. Clair Township within the Lambton County, has a clean harvested facility.

In a statement by the Ministry of Transport, Julia Cassin said in a statement, “A stockpile of Nyobium Rock Telings was taken for a private licensed settlement facility being run by a clean port near Sarnia in July, according to all regulatory requirements.”

CBC News did not hear back from the clean port by publication.

Casin says that when it comes to transporting all mining materials, the ministry increased the “strict security and environmental stand” while transferring Naibium rock tailing.

According to the province, nyobium rock tailing is not classified as a dangerous substance, and their movement is considered a low -risk operation.

Nipissing First Nation Chief Cathy Stevens first told the work of CBC News that it is expected to be completed by the end of the year to remove the tailing.
