What about the underground issues with radioactive fluids washing under the

They attempted freezing the soil a la Fukushima, gave up on that and
resorted to filling in the lower levels of the plant with concrete.
That included a chamber dug under the plant by miners for refrigeration
equipment.

They're constantly damping down the inside of the existing sarcophagus
with water spray to prevent radioactive dust rising, and that
contaminated water is finding its way into the ground.

Yawn.
