Any nuclear contamination site should receive priority.

I am sure Senator Brown of Ohio can provide help in continuity with employment of workers and accomplish completion of this important mission.

...“We recently received correspondence from workers (click here) at the site and local community leaders expressing concern with the funding situation for the project,” the senators wrote. “They indicated they have been told that WARN Act notices could shortly be issued to employees at the site due to a lack of funds. We find these rumors incredibly disturbing because Congress provided DOE the funds it requested for Fiscal Year 2014.”...

With the understanding there will be a completed mission to remove nuclear contamination, the reclamation of the land depends on the level of radiation that may still be evident even after the clean up. My concern is the clean up is driven by reclamation and not safety. Reclamation should not be the first promise regarding these sites.
