[edit] Some people claiming that the Moab tailings are not radioactive

I hear people claim all the time that the Moab tailings are not radioactive. Most of the time it is people that have never even been to the area. I can contest that. My dad works for the construction company in Moab that worked on preparing the area for the movement of the tailings. Over the phone he was telling me that the other day he drove an inch across a pre-set line and they would not let the truck move until they checked it for radiation. As well, they walk across that thing every day with measurement tools every day and turn up an astonishingly large amount of radiation. I do realize that this can not be put in the article because it is controversial and has no verifiable source so I said it on the discussion page instead of putting it in the article.
