In 1999, Oregon shipped a 1,000-ton nuclear reactor vessel 270 miles up the Columbia river, then buried it in Washington

Oregon's Trojan Nuclear Power Plant reactor vessel traveled 270 miles up the Columbia River. This massive 907-metric-ton vessel was then transported overland to Hanford. Engineers planned this intact removal to reduce handling and radioactive shipments. Regulators approved the unusual transportation package for shallow-land burial. The vessel remains buried at Hanford as part of radioactive waste operations.
