Gephart, a geohydrologist with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Washington, has written a thorough history of the Hanford nuclear reservation in Hanford, Washington that's accessible to the non-specialist. The main issues discussed are the site's history and changing functions and the process involved in its cleanup. The latter is described in exacting detail, with examples from other sites; discussion of waste and nuclear materials; environmental regulations and cleanup agreement; the administration of the cleanup; and the science, economics, and risk involved.
