The Hanford cleanup is costing taxpayers billions each year. We regularly hear about radioactive leaks and delays in processing waste. What’s the rest of the story? Ginger Wireman’s presentation, ‘What’s Up with Hanford Cleanup?’ will explain the current status of Hanford cleanup and the State of Washington’s role in cleanup oversight. Wireman has been a community outreach and environmental education specialist with the Washington Dept. of Ecology’s Nuclear Waste Program since 2001. She has an MS in Environmental Studies and has written and illustrated a children’s book, ‘If Wishes Had Wings’, which explores the animals and habitats of the Washington shrub steppe and Cascade Mountains through a child’s imagination. This presentation will be at 7 p.m., Tuesday, November 12, at the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Palouse, 420 E. Second St., Moscow. Sponsored by Palouse Group of the Sierra Club and Palouse Environmental Sustainability Coalition. For further information, contact Al Poplawsky.
