Although recent media reporting describing evidence of recurring leakage from the Pyongsan Uranium Mill’s waste tailings pipeline is accurate, the headlines associated with that reporting have been overly sensationalistic. The observed leakage is less extensive than those headlines suggest. Perhaps even more important than the environmental impact, operation of the facility is another indication that Pyongyang is continuing and prioritizing its program to produce highly enriched uranium for nuclear weapons.
