The Runit Dome on one the Enewetak Atoll islands is a 6 cm (18 in) thick dome of concrete at sea level, which is placed in the crater created by the “Cactus” nuclear weapons test in 1958.
It is used in the late 70s as a burial pit to encapsulating an estimated 73,000 cubic meters (95,000 cu yd) of radioactive debris and soil (including some plutonium-239), scraped from the various contaminated islands. 4,000 US servicemen were involved in the cleanup and it took three years to complete. The dome was built to cover the material.
A report of the US Department of Energy in 2013 found that radioactive materials were leeching out, threatening the already tenuous existence of Enewetak locals.
