"Govt says Army lab in NH violated has waste laws

HANOVER, N.H. --The Army's Cold Regions Research Lab in Hanover, N.H., may face fines of more than $100,000 for alleged hazardous waste violations. The Environmental Protection Agency says the lab improperly handled, stored and labeled hazardous waste containers. The Cold Regions facility conducts research on the impacts of human activity on the environment in colder regions, as well as the effects of the cold on equipment, operations and facility maintenance. Researchers there also test materials used in cold environments and research the nature of snow, ice and frozen ground (AP)."
