    Bumpass cove is not a nuclear waste dump site. However, there is a chemical dump site there.

      That’s not just what the teenagers call it? Bumpass Cove is it’s actual, legal name?

      Wow, that’s certainly a… choice.

        Well, it was changed to “Bumpus Cove”. Which is more in line with how the locals pronounced it.

      I’m not the most familiar with the story, so many I’m remembering wrong. But I googled it to make sure before I posted that.

        Yes, the lawsuits by the community collations belived nuclear waste was being dumped from the nearby NFS, but the NRC would have been all over their ass for doing so.

        The NRC clearly states there is no nuclear waste there. https://web.archive.org/web/20170325023938/https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML0930/ML093010711.pdf

        Now there may be chemical dumped from the deenrichment processing, but when I researched into this topic a while back, all my sources lead all the chemicals was coming from the chem plants in Kingsport, mainly eastman.
