It amperes to me that the dreadful puns still have some mileage.

Bits and pieces of the aircraft have been picked up, trees and soiled material and soil will be removed, then the house will be decontaminated and rebuilt.
Expected to take 5-6 months.

Don't know, but they say they will uproot all the trees in the property and nearby field, and scrap the soil several inches deep.
They found an inert missile nose cone in the house.

Although Hydrazine is a pretty nasty carcinogenic chemical monofuel, the important chemical loss processes for it in the atmosphere mean that its overall lifetime in the atmosphere is only a few hours.

But if it's absorbed into the ground...???
