November 14 -- The design of a pilot plant that will destroy chemical weapons at the Blue Grass Army Depot in Richmond, Ky., includes all the steps required for safe and effective destruction of the weapons, but the steps need to be integrated and tested, says a new report from the National Research Council. Also, large amounts of uncontaminated secondary wastes from the plant should be disposed of off-site at qualified waste-disposal facilities.
