Well it wont be there if its highly radioactive as it will have decayed.
If its not highly radioactive then what does it matter?

U235 is rather radioactive and has a half life of 704,000,000 years.

The sea which conrains 4bn tinnes of U238, so several hundred million
tionnes of U235, does not glow in the dark from radiation..
