#1 "In 2001 CIEMAT detected higher levels of plutonium, uranium and americium than average over 24 acres of Palomares."
Higher than average -- not exactly alarming.
Over 24 acres -- not much of a clean-up as things go.

#2 Just the usual Scamming for Big Bux gig. It was cleaned up and they were paid for the imagined "losses" back when it happened. There's a bull market in Golden Guilt and State Dept Stupidity, so they're looking for a return engagement. Just the usual EU-Thimk.

#3 The village is still there, they seem to still be a farming village, ergo I surmise that there's bugger all to cleanup.

#4 We should pay the extra bucks to ship in all of our own crew and not create a single extra job for the locals.
