Bukit Merah Refinery Cleanup

Mitsubishi Chemical has voluntarily spent over 100 million dollars to clean up radioactive waste their former rare earth metals refinery in Malaysia, located in Bukit Merah Malaysia. The refinery was operated by the Mitsubishi subsidiary Asian Rare Earths Sdn Bhd. [6]

According to the New York Times, "Residents blamed a rare earth refinery for birth defects and eight leukemia cases within five years in a community of 11,000 — after many years with no leukemia cases." Seven of the leukemia victims died. After having accomplished the hilltop entombment of 11,000 truckloads of radioactively contaminated material, the project is expected to entail in summer, 2011, the removal of "more than 80,000 steel barrels of radioactive waste to the hilltop repository."
