STRUCTURES MARKING AN AREA USED TO BURY RADIOACTIVE WASTES
AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. THE RADIOACTIVE WASTES AND HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS ARE BURIED WITHIN AN AREA THAT IS 660 METER BY 810 METERS.
THE WASTE IS BURIED 655 METERS DEEP. THIS PLACE WAS CHOSEN TO PUT
THIS DANGEROUS MATERIAL FAR AWAY FROM PEOPLE AND OTHER LIVING

FROM OTHER LIVING THINGS, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE 41 SQUARE
KILOMETER AREA NOT BE DISTURBED. DO NOT DRILL OR CONDUCT ANY
MINING OPERATIONS WITHIN THE CONTROLLED AREA. DOING SO COULD
CHANGE THE WATER HYDROLOGY AND AFFECT THE ISOLATION OF THE
RADIOACTIVE WASTES AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS FROM LIVING THINGS.


DO NOT DRILL HERE. DO NOT DIG HERE OR CONDUCT MINING OPERATIONS
WITHIN THE 41 KILOMETER CONTROLLED AREA. DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT
MIGHT DISTURB THE WATER HYDROLOGY WITHIN THE CONTROLLED AREA.
DO NOT DESTROY THIS OR ANY OTHER MARKER. THIS MARKING SYSTEM HAS
