Atomic Cleanup Program By JoAnne Castagna, Ed.D. The hot cup of coffee you sipped this morning was made possible in large part because of the scientific advances made during the Atomic Age in the 1940’s. These innovations included the plastic parts on your coffee maker, the paper packets holding your sugar, the plumbing carrying your water, the microwave reheating your cup, and the electrical power running everything. Society has benefited in so many ways from the work performed by Atomic Age innovators that included The Manhattan Project and the Atomic Energy Commission, predecessor of the U.S. Department of Energy, but unfortunately where this work was performed created waste that contaminated the land.  Soon, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District will be cleaning up one of these properties and applying an innovative soil sorting system that will save tax-payer money, reduce air pollution, and most importantly return the land back to the communi...
