The scene in the original Ghostbusters with a rep from EPA is painfully close to the truth.
Did some work for a steel mill that melted down old stuff (to mostly make rebar). They had a huge amount of radioactive waste stored because of a medical device that was in their feed many years ago. EPA can fine you for not disposing of the material in a licensed facility, and at the same time, refuse to grant licenses to any facilities.

It’s all fun and games until someone from the EPA shows up and demands to see your license to dispose of nuclear material.

Which is when you hand him a container and say ‘You’re It!”. And run.
