Problems in the disposal of low-level radioactive wastes are discussed. Due to the closing of the disposal site at Hanford, Washington, radioactive wastes from medical research at various universities and medical centers around the country have begun to stockpile. The reason given for the closing is that the wastes had been carelessly packaged.
