EQ, a USEcology company, made its determination as Gov. Rick Snyder announced plans to form a panel of experts to look at Michigan’s standards for disposing of low-level radioactive waste. EQ has accepted the waste — known as technologically enhanced, naturally occurring radioactive materials, or TENORM — from Michigan and other states at its Wayne Disposal landfill, located between Willow Run Airport and I-94 near Belleville. “We look forward to supporting this important review,” Simon Bell, EQ executive vice president of operations, said in a statement. “We take pride in our proven ability as one of the few companies with the expertise to safely manage this material.”
