Aerial video of nuclear production facility

Trex 450 RC helicopter flies around the old sinister looking buildings of Cameco in Port Hope Ontario, the facility from where the ingredients of the bomb used on Hiroshima originated. This uranium conversion plant is one of only four in the western hemisphere and today produces the rods that fuel nuclear power stations. Drums intended for the storage of waste can be seen and the hump covered in black tarp is contaminated earth that was recently excavated from the town's harbor, where waste used to be dumped in the old days. Many areas of the town were built on nuclear waste and a ten year plan, so far allocated 280 million dollars is in the works to remove the earth around town containing waste, but, they don't know what to do with it! There were some plans to dig caverns under Lake Ontario for dumping but that has been now deemed impractical..... Even more sadly, the little town is full of turn of the century architecture designated as a Heritage Conservation District, boasting some of the best preserved 19th century streetscapes in Ontario, many of which will also be effected by a clean-up if it ever happens. The flight is brief and stays long ways away from the plant's airspace for obvious reasons.
