Does no one ever read the article?

The first two paragraphs:

A gaping hole was left on a small island in the Pacific Ocean when the United States military released an 18-kiloton nuclear blast in 1958, known as the 'Cactus' test.

After the blast took place on the Marshall Island's Runit Island, the military filled it in with contaminated soil and debris, creating a 'tomb' of nuclear waste known now as the Runit Dome.

Bikini atoll? They scraped all the top dirt off the island as well as anything else they thought was remotely nuclear and threw it into a big hole, then capped it with cement.

Now folks are worried the waves are getting into it and leaching all sorts of nasty into the ocean and island water table.
