Nuclear Metals, Inc. Superfund Site Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study
Nuclear Metals, Inc. (NMI) used depleted uranium (DU) in the manufacture of penetrators for the US Army. From 1958 to 1985, process waste (DU, nitric acid, and lime) was disposed in an unlined holding basin at this Boston-area manufacturing facility now surrounded by residential neighborhoods. As a result, DU was released to soils and groundwater near the basin.
