FILE--In this July 15, 2004, file photo a worker sprays water to keep down the dust as a giant claw on an excavator rips apart Building 771 at the former Rocky Flats nuclear weapons plant near Golden, Colo. Attorneys say they reached a $375 million settlement late Wednesday, May 18, 2016, in a legal battle between the operators of the former nuclear weapons plant outside Denver and thousands of homeowners who said plutonium releases from the plant hurt their property values. It must still be approved by a federal judge, and it could take months to set up a process for homeowners to file claims. (AP Photo/Ed Andrieski, file) (AP)
