Fernald's K-65 Silos are Gone.
Two of Fernald's most recognizable landmarks fell to the ground April 16-17 as Fluor Fernald demolition workers knocked down the K-65 Silos. For nearly 50 years the two concrete structures were home to 8,900 cubic yards of radioactive waste, the byproduct of uranium metal extraction. The waste is now in holding tanks awaiting treatment and off-site disposal.
