Oh man, that stuff would make GREAT fertalizer for crops, don't let it go to waste!!! Move it out and let it rot somewhere until you have a great big mulch pile.

The failure is something that occours due to neglegence, something that might be a problem if there is only one person left. The cooling and safety systems are run on computers that are operated by trained technicians. If there's no one there to monitor the cooling systems, the core could (would) overheat and melt. This could potentially release highly radioactive fission products to the environment. That stuff sucks.
Removing radioactive materials from water can be tricky. I would suggest anion exchange resins combined with reverse osmosis, but I'm just a layman.
