The Defense-Related Uranium Mines (DRUM) program searches for and safeguards Cold War-era excavations. It’s a partnership between the Department of Energy and various federal and state land agencies. Their focus? Mines on public lands. Today on the news, we go out with a DRUM team to check on the status of an abandoned mine in southeastern Utah. Plus, the Telluride Bluegrass Festival is back. Our radio partners speak with some festivalgoers about what they’re excited about for this first ‘full’ event in three years.
