$730 million for a concrete job on a "radioactive" reactor from 1961...Hahahaha. They took the nuclear fuel out 20 years ago but now they are "saving" the environment. This is a deindustrialization project due to Peak Oil.

USA's Experimental Breeder Reactor-II now permanently entombed

CH2M-WG, Idaho, LLC (CWI) said yesterday that crews with the Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) Program recently completed pouring more than 3400 cubic yards of concrete grout into the basement of the Experimental Breeder Reactor-II (EBR-II) building to fill in any remaining void spaces and effectively entomb the reactor.

EBR-II began operations in 1961 at the former Argonne National Laboratory-West site

The three-year, $730 million project, funded through the DOE's Office of Environmental Management, focuses on early risk reduction and protection of the Snake River Plain Aquifer
