Говорят, что в Хэнфорде обвалился какой-то туннель в котором хранили отходы от переработки ОЯТ:

Hanford tunnel breach confirmed in emergency at Hanford nuclear reservation

One of two tunnels used to store highly radioactively contaminated waste at the defunct Purex processing plant may have collapsed.
An aerial survey midmorning Tuesday showed an opening about 20 feet by 20 feet into the tunnel, which had been covered with about eight feet of soil.
The breach could expose the highly radioactive material disposed of in the tunnel to the atmosphere.
No airborne radiation had been detected as of about 10:30 a.m. Radiological surveys were continuing.
...
Railcars full of highly contaminated materials and equipment from the plant were backed into waste disposal tunnels at the plant and left there as a disposal method. ... The last radioactive material was placed in the tunnels in the early 1990s. ...

TUNNEL WITH NUCLEAR WASTE COLLAPSES IN WASHINGTON STATE

A portion of a storage tunnel that contains rail cars full of radioactive waste collapsed Tuesday morning, forcing an emergency declaration at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in southeastern Washington state.
Officials detected no release of radiation and no workers were injured, said Randy Bradbury, a spokesman for the Washington state Department of Ecology.
...
The accident occurred at a facility known as PUREX, located in the middle of the sprawling Hanford site, which is half the size of Rhode Island, Bradbury said.
...
Hanford for decades made plutonium for nuclear weapons and is now the largest depository of radioactive defense waste that must be cleaned.
It contains about 56 million gallons of radioactive waste, most of it in 177 underground tanks.
Bradbury said the collapse occurred at one of two rail tunnels under the PUREX site.

В прошлом году оценивалось, что тоннель обрушится в течение ближайших 30 лет.

Ну, не ошиблись

Ну, не ошиблись

С одной стороны, да.
С другой - речь шла всё-таки о значительном обрушении, после которого последует выброс.
Так что ещё всё впереди.
