    Few seek nuclear ailment compensation By Annette Cary
    A program to compensate Hanford workers for ailments related to working at the nuclear reservation is finding far fewer takers than expected.

    U.S. Department of Labor officials are mystified by the low number of applications for a program that pays $150,000 in compensation to those who developed cancer or certain lung diseases from working at the nuclear reservation. Current and former workers and surviving family members are eligible.
