North Anna Nuclear Plant

Built to withstand ANYTHING? That's absurd. They're not designed to withstand various terrorist attack scenarios. The steel and/or concrete of which they are built will eventually corrode and crumble away. Brand new casks
...have even proven d...efective, sometimes dangerously so, as at Palisades, and Point Beach, WI. Palisades' casks also violate earthquake safety regulations. The 8/23/11 quake in Mineral, VA, epicentered 11 miles from North Anna nuclear plant, damaged dry casks there.

The researchers found a way to make an “optical battery,” said Stephen Rand, a professor in the departments of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Physics and Applied Physics. In the process, they overturned a century-old tenet of physics. “You could stare at the equations of motion all day and you will not see this possibility. We’ve all been taught that this doesn’t happen,” said Rand, an author of a paper on the work published in the Journal of Applied Physics. “It’s a very odd interaction. That’s why it’s been overlooked for more than 100 years.” Light has electric and magnetic components. Until now, scientists thought the effects of the magnetic field were so weak that they could be ignored. What Rand and his colleagues found is that at the right intensity, when light is traveling through a material that does not conduct electricity, the light field can generate magnetic effects that are 100 million times stronger than previously expected. Under these circumstances, the magnetic effects develop strength equivalent to a strong electric effect. “This could lead to a new kind of solar cell without semiconductors and without absorption to produce charge separation,” Rand said. “In solar cells, the light goes into a material, gets absorbed and creates heat. Here, we expect to have a very low heat load. Instead of the light being absorbed, energy is stored in the magnetic moment. Intense magnetization can be induced by intense light and then it is ultimately capable of providing a capacitive power source.” What makes this possible is a previously undetected brand of “optical rectification,” says William Fisher, a doctoral student in applied physics. In traditional optical rectification, light’s electric field causes a charge separation, or a pulling apart of the positive and negative charges in a material. This sets up a voltage, similar to that in a battery. This electric effect had previously been detected only in crystalline materials that possessed a certain symmetry.

The President who told the Truth about illuminati

 John F. Kennedy



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20KDBELD20I

1957 - Albert Schweitzer Declaration


"The awareness that we are all human beings together has become lost in war and through politics."

"We are constantly being told about a 'permissible amount of radiation.' Who permitted it? Who has any right to permit it? This propaganda [about the safety of nuclear tests] will continue to set the tone in certain newspapers. But beside it the truth about the danger of nuclear tests marches imperturbably along, influencing an ever-increasing section of public opinion. In the long run, even the most efficiently organized propaganda can do nothing against the truth."

Many friends and well-known scientists, headed by his friend Albert Einstein, urged Dr. Albert Schweitzer to protest in public against nuclear bombs and the atomic tests. Renowned scientists had the idea that the reputation of Albert Schweitzer could help to awaken the public to the problem of nuclear pollution and the consequent danger to human beings.

On the 4th of November 1954, in his acceptance speech in Oslo for the Nobel Peace Prize of 1952, Schweitzer spoke of the danger of nuclear weapons.Albert Schweitzer's Nobel Peace Prize Lecture

Schweitzer wrote a letter to the American President Dwight Eisenhower: "In my heart I carry the hope I may somehow be able to contribute to the peace of the world. This I know has always been our deepest wish. We both share the conviction that humanity must find a way to control the weapons which now menace the very existence of life on earth. May it be given to us both to see the day when the world's people will realize that the fate of all humanity is now at stake, and that it is urgently necessary to make the bold decisions that can deal adequately with the agonizing situation in which the world now find itself."

In 1957 Schweitzer published 'A Declaration of Conscience', his public appeal against the development of nuclear weapons. Radio Oslo broadcast Schweitzer's "Declaration of Conscience". The manuscripts were read by Gunnar Jahn, the president of the Norwegian Nobel Prize Committee. The broadcasts were made by radio Oslo on the 28th, 29th and 30th of April 1958. There were various echoes around the world. The declaration was transmitted by 140 other radio stations all around the world. Many broadcast services - in the east and west - were forbidden by their governments to broadcast it.

The statements, 'The Renunciation of Nuclear Tests', 'The Danger of an Atomic War', and 'Negotiations at the Highest Level' call for the abandonment of both nuclear tests and the production of nuclear weapons, and are published in book form under the title 'Peace or Atomic War?'.

"我們不斷被告知有關 '的輻射容許量'。誰允許它?誰有任何權利,以允許它?這種宣傳 [關於核子試驗的安全] 將繼續在某些報紙上定下了基調。但在它旁邊的核危險的真相測試謙和沿,影響公眾輿論日益節遊行。長遠來說,即使是最高效地組織的宣傳可以做什麼對真理。

許多朋友和知名科學家,率領他的朋友亞伯特 · 愛因斯坦,敦促哲醫生,抗議在公眾免受核炸彈和原子的測試。著名科學家們的史懷哲的聲譽可能有助於喚醒公眾對問題的核污染和對人類造成危險的想法。

在 1954 年 11 月 4 日,在演說中在奧斯陸舉行的諾貝爾和平獎的 1952 年史懷哲談到核武器的危險。史懷哲的諾貝爾和平獎演講

史懷哲寫信給美國總統德懷特 · 艾森豪的一封信:"我的心我帶的希望,我不知怎麼可能能夠對世界的和平作出貢獻。我知道這一直是我們最深切的願望。我們這兩個共用人類必須找到辦法,以控制武器現在威脅著地球上的生命的生存的信念。它會為我們兩人,有朝一日當世界人民將實現全人類的命運現在處於危險之中,並且會很迫切需要做出大膽的決定,可以充分處理的世界現在發現自己的痛苦狀況。"

1957 年史懷哲發表 ' A 宣言的良心 ',他公開呼籲反對發展核武器。奧斯陸無線電廣播史懷哲的"良心宣言"。手稿由甘納爾 · Jahn,挪威諾貝爾獎委員會主席被讀取。無線電奧斯陸第 28、 29 和的 1958 年 4 月 30 號發了廣播節目。有世界各地的各種回聲。宣言 》 轉交了 140 其他世界各地的廣播電臺。許多廣播的服務-東和西-由其政府被禁止播放它。

Revealed: Army scientists secretly sprayed St Louis with 'radioactive'particles for YEARS to test chemical warfare technology


By EMILY ANNE EPSTEIN

PUBLISHED: 29 September 2012


The United States Military conducted top secret experiments on the citizens of St. Louis, Missouri, for years, exposing them to radioactive compounds, a researcher has claimed.

While it was known that the government sprayed 'harmless' zinc cadmium silfide particles over the general population in St Louis, Professor Lisa Martino-Taylor, a sociologist at St. Louis Community College, claims that a radioactive additive was also mixed with the compound.

She has accrued detailed descriptions as well as photographs of the spraying which exposed the unwitting public, predominantly in low-income and minority communities, to radioactive particles.

Japanese Activists Deported from India

A Nuclear-Free Future is Our Common Dream: Letter from the Japanese Activists Deported from India
LATEST

To our friends who struggle for nuclear free future,

A historic movement is underway in Tamil Nadu State against Koodankulam nuclear power station. People across the world are moved by the resistance and want to express solidarity

We tried to visit India to show our solidarity on September 25 but were denied access at Chennai airport. After an hour-long interrogation, we had our paper written as “Inadmissible person” ,which denied our entrance to India. It is unforgivable for the government, which invites countless nuclear merchants from Western countries, to deny such small citizens like us. We are writing this letter because we would like you to know what we experienced.

Fukushima Shadow: Question about any medical issues in Koriyama-city:

Excerpts from the Fukushima Collective Evacuation Trial gathering held in Tokyo on September 14, 2012

http://twitcasting.tv/matudaira/movie/6403938

Question about any medical issues in Koriyama-city:

A man’s comment

“I am here from Yokohama.  I was diagnosed with arrhythmia one year ago at a check-up.  This spring I was told my EKG was abnormal.  Also my red blood cell and white blood cell count was abnormal, but the doctor told me it was no big deal and I was working too much.  I actually don’t work.  Also my right little fingernail split in half recently.  Something like this has never happened to me before, and I don’t feel good about it at all.  One more thing is that my tooth cracked when eating something hard.  I realize I can’t blame everything on radiation, but I don’t feel comfortable with any of these (symptoms).  How is it in Koriyama?  Are there abnormalities such as arrhythmia?”

Koriyama-city woman’s response

“Thank you for being here, everyone.  I would like to talk about what has been happening around me.  Last May, an aunt of my daughter’s friend, a woman in her early 40’s, was found dead of heart failure while waiting in a car for about 15 minutes when her husband went into a store to pick up something for their restaurant business located in front of the station:  They had gone to the neighboring Ibaraki Prefecture for an errand.

Last May or June, a woman in her early 40’s, an evacuee from Tomioka-machi living in a temporary housing in Koriyama-city, dropped dead when she touched a door.  She was taken to Southern General Tohoku Hospital in Koriyama-city, but she died.

Also you might have heard that two to three Fukushima high school students have died.  The one that died in July is a friend of a son of my acquaintance.  They went to the same elementary school, but they are in different high schools.  When the mother went to wake up the child, the child was already dead.

There is a place called Shinobuyama (in Fukushima-city) where an ambient radiation level is very high. (Note: 1.484 μSv/h on September 18, 2012)  Fukushima high school students go there to do sports without wearing masks and also commute to schools on bicycles without wearing masks.

Also it might be from aging process, but my acquaintance’s huband died last May, which I didn’t know until the end of the year.  I went to the altar shop 

near my house to buy incense sticks and candles.  The old man at the shop came out and said, “I just went to a funeral and I am totally astonished.  A 48-year-old son of the greengrocers across the street suddenly died of heart failure.”  Also it might be the aging process or the stress, but since the earthquake up to the end of last year, seven people died on this particular shopping street.  This May my acquaintance’s husband died at age 74.  That’s all that happened around me.” (keep reading http://fukushimavoice-eng.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/excerpts-from-fukushima-collective.html0

Uranium Mining India, The Story of Jadugoda

The Story of Jadugoda, the chief source of India's Uranium





Overview

Jadugoda, located in the mineral-rich Singhbum district of Jharkhand, is the chief source of Uranium in India, providing fuel for  the nuclear reactors. However, the uranium comes at a colossal human cost. In this case, those paying the price are adivasis (indigenous population), the Santhal, Munda and Ho tribes. Due to the proximity of the mine, a large number of villagers suffer from cancer, skin diseases, physical deformities, blindness, brain damage, disruption of menstrual cycle or loss of fertility. Villagers, evicted from their lands, work as miners and are exposed to a heavy dose of radiation. Uranium Corporation of India Limited (UCIL), responsible for operating the mine refutes the allegations and refuses to acknowledge the problems. However, independent researchers believe that it is difficult to conceive of any reason, other than radiation, for the human and environmental catastrophe. This site has been created to provide a window to outside world to Jadugoda and its problems, a creation of our own. In the hope that those responsible for creating problems can also work towards addressing them. http://www.jadugoda.net/

Kolsefan/Justice Kolse Patil


Jutice Kolse Patil who left the exalted chair of a judge from the Bombay high court in 1990 to work among the people is committed to free this country from the cannibal capitalists and thereby achieve complete independent from the evil forces. He is a man of great strength and vision. He completed his schooling in Ahmednagar and then transferred to the Poona Law College where he completed his LLB. Justice Kolse Patil specialized in criminal law. He was District Government Pleader and Public Prosecutor in Poona from 1980 to 1985. From 1985 to 90 he served as a Judge of the High Court. In 1990 he resigned from the High Court to serve social causes on a full time basis. He does not believe in being out of touch with people. Instead he travels around the country to uplift the downtrodden masses of the nation. He is a man of the people. Indians have great admiration for him. He truly believed that he could not rest until the last unfortunate human being has been helped. His personal desire for freedom from Capitalism and Brahmanism has restored a sense of pride among farmers, Dalits and minorities. He believes the exploitation and domination of one community over another can have no place in a multicultural and multilingual country.

He exhorts Muslims to come out of an illusionary world. The former judge attacks the well-entrenched Brahminism in India. He is not against any religion or its practices, he says: "When I say Brahmins I mean the mentality which has ruled this country for years. You have Brahmins among Muslims too. They don't want the underprivileged to get their fair share in the economy, he says. 


He unearthed the Hindu terrorists plans in Nanded and Malegaon. He was accompanied with the rights activists Teesta Setalvad, Arvind Deshmukh and others.


About Muslim Terrorism, he says Its complete injustice to one community, because whenever you catch any Muslim youth without any proof you start calling him terrorist but in the case of Hindutva militants BJP and other saffron fundamentalists openly support them despite the proof of their involvement in the bomb blasts in Nanded, Malegaon and other places. Also, he says covering up the incidents points to the deeper conspiracy. 


He says, Hindutva militants justify their terrorist activities with the help of the saffron press. They always accuse the government is anti-Hindu. Muslims killed in Gujarat, Sikhs killed in Delhi, Christian killed in Orrisa, is this anti-Hindu government? If it would be anti-Hindu government, then these acts would not have been perpetrated. In fact it is an anti-Minority government. Instead of implementing Sri Krishna Commission the government is diverting the attention of minorities by Sachar Commision. If the secular government is really serious to bring the goons of 1993 riots to the book, why the

implementation of the Sri Krishna commission is being delayed. He says, we can never believe BJP as it is controlled by RSS who have the honor of killing Gandhi.

Strong supply chain supports new build



13 September 2012
With nuclear new-build investment set to top some $1.5 trillion by 2030, the World Nuclear Association (WNA) has launched an in-depth report assessing the role and development of a robust and reliable supply chain to support the growing nuclear power sector over the next two decades.
Juan Molina (WNA)_200
Juan Molina presents the report at the WNA Symposium
The World Nuclear Supply Chain: Outlook 2030 looks at the challenges and opportunities presented by plans for a total of 160 new units to enter service by 2030. It builds on work from the WNA's biennial Global Fuel Market Report, taking three scenarios for nuclear generating capacity to illustrate the range in size of the potential market for nuclear power plants.
The 154-page report was unveiled at the WNA's 37th annual symposium in London by Juan Molina, who chairs the WNA's Supply Chain Working Group as well as being chief procurement officer for Westinghouse.
Over $500 billion will be spent globally on international procurement to support nuclear new build over the next two decades, WNA estimates. Nine consolidated vendors today offer much of the technology and services that support the entire nuclear fuel sector, alongside a handful of other significant players, mostly engineering companies. Emerging industrial economies, such as China and India, are open to international procurement (albeit with governments keen to maximize locally manufactured content), and the supply chain that is evolving to support nuclear plant construction is an internationally diverse one.
A new reactor requires around 200 complex or heavy forgings, and only a few presses in the world have the capacity to accept ingots of the necessary size. But a nuclear plant also requires millions of other components: a modern light water reactor requires over 2000 km of cabling, 210 km of piping, 5000 valves and 200 pumps. Further, in addition to those components that must be of 'nuclear' grade, a nuclear plant requires a host of so-called commercial grade components and structures, ranging from the turbogenerator systems to the staff canteen. There is plenty of scope for competition, although new suppliers of nuclear-grade components must gain the necessary accreditation before they can enter the market, especially if they are manufacturing safety-critical components.
There is currently ample capacity in the supply chain, documented comprehensively in the WNA report. As Molina explained, a reliable, robust and international supply chain can work to reduce cost pressures, in part by reducing supplier bottlenecks, while a large global market will boost investment, and a diverse range of players in the market will encourage innovation.

The report makes a considered analysis of the multifaceted nuclear industry supply chain, including areas in which developments can work to strengthen not only the supply chain but the whole nuclear industry: standardization of reactor designs and consistent safety requirements, harmonization to a more coordinated system of supplier certification and monitoring of nuclear grade component manufacturers, harmonization of trade and export/import regulations, and developing the supplier base are some of the supply chain strengthening measures highlighted in the report.

The nuclear industry is already taking action, Molina noted. Two WNA working groups - the Supply Chain working group and the working group on Cooperation in Reactor Design Evaluation and Licensing (CORDEL) - are actively working on areas including defining a common vendor approach to supplier certification, convergence in mechanical design codes and standards, and contributing to the development of guidance and best practice on licensing and permitting.
"We need to find a way to make it easier for our suppliers, and ourselves, to do what needs to be done," Molina said. "We can make things easier for the industry and the world."

US bank finances UAE project

 10 September 2012

The Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) is to lend the Barakah One Company $2 billion to underwrite the export of US components and services for the construction of the the United Arab Emirates' (UAE's) first nuclear power plant.

The Barakah nuclear power plant will comprise four Korean-designed APR-1400 pressurised water reactors, but the bank says the $2 billion credit line will support some 5000 jobs in the USA. US company Westinghouse is a member of the Korea Electric Power Company (Kepco)-led consortium which was selected to build the plant, and will provide a range of components and services including reactor coolant pumps, controls, engineering services and training.

The Ex-Im Bank is a federal agency which helps to support US manufacturing jobs by filling gaps in private export financing. Before approving the loan, the bank conducted a "detailed and extensive" risk assessment of the Barakah project.

The loan is the bank's largest ever transaction in the UAE as well as its first financing of a 'greenfield' nuclear plant in over a decade. It has the support of the US National Security Council and the US departments of state and energy. Noting the importance of the transaction to the US economy, Ex-Im Bank chairman and president Fred Hochberg said the bank would also "make history" by backing the construction of the first nuclear power plant in the region.

Construction officially began at Barakah in July, and the first unit is scheduled to enter service in 2017.

Beyond Nuclear Fact Sheet Catastrophic Risks of GE BWR Mark I

High-Level Radioactive Waste Storage Pools

High-Level Radioactive Waste Storage Pool Fire at Fukushima Daiichi



The Fukushima Nuclear Catastrophe has clearly shown just how risky General Electric Boiling Water Reactors of the Mark I design are, including their high-level radioactive waste (HLRW) storage pools. Although the U.S. nuclear power establishment is still trying to deny it, evidence has mounted that Fukushima Daiichi Unit 4’s pool boiled dry to the point that highly radioactive irradiated nuclear fuel assemblies were exposed to air overheated, caught fire, and discharged catastrophic amounts of radioactive cesium-137 directly into the environment. This is because GE BWR Mark I pools – as with most pools at nuclear plants – are not locate within a primary radiological containment structure. Also, at Fukushima the reactor meltdowns and explosions damaged or destroyed the secondary containment structures (referred to as reactor buildings), at Units 1, 3 and 4, leaving those pools open to the sky. Unit 1 has since been covered with a tent. Unit 2 did suffer relatively small hole in its reactor building, as well.

As Stohl et al. have reported: “Our results indicate that 137Cs emissions peaked on 14–15 March but were
generally high from 12 until 19 March, when they suddenly dropped by orders of magnitude exactly when
spraying of water on the spent-fuel pool of unit 4 started. This indicates that emissions were not only coming
from the damaged reactor cores, but also from the spent-fuel pool of unit 4 and confirms that the spraying wa an effective countermeasure.”1 Thus, the HLRW fire in the Unit 4 storage pool caused some of the worst
radioactive Cs-137 releases during the catastrophic first week at Fukushima. It was his concern that the Unit 4 pool had boiled dry that prompted U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Chairman Gregory Jaczko, in the very first days of the catastrophe, to order an emergency warning to Americans in Japan to evacuate to at least 50 miles away from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

The Reactor No. 4 pool contained 135 tons of irradiated nuclear fuel; Reactor No. 1’s pool had 50 tons, No. 2’ 81 tons, and No. 3’s 88 tons. It took months for Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) and emergency responders to restore regular cooling water flow to certain of the pools. Some may still lack it. To restore water to the pools, as the thermally hot irradiated nuclear fuel boiled it away, ad hoc cooling efforts have include attempts to drop water by helicopter, as well as water spraying by fire truck, concrete pump truck, and even rio control water cannons. The Unit 4 reactor building is severely listing; its pool floor is supported by steel jacks for fear that it could fall out. A large aftershock could collapse the pool, instantly drain its cooling water, an reignite a radioactive waste fire. Unit 3’s pool appears filled with debris, so the condition of its irradiated fuel i unclear. Given the dangers on-site, including high radiation dose rates, when and how TEPCO and/or th Japanese federal government will be able to remove the HLRW to a safer location is yet to be determined Also, it is unclear when, or even if, a close examination of the four pools will occur, to determine what exactly happened where, why, and how bad the radioactivity releases have been.
What are the risks?

While all nuclear power plant HLRW storage pools are risky, GE BWR Mark I pools are especially vulnerable to accidents or attacks. A boil down or drain down of the cooling water could spark a fire in the irradiated fuel, as seen at Fukushima. GE BWR Mark I pools are elevated four to six stories high, above the reactor as well as outside the primary containment structure. The reactor building is not robust, as shown by the explosions at Fukushima. The design made it easier for the plants to remove irradiated fuel from the reactor core directly into the pool, but puts the pools at increased risk of heavy load drops, attacks by airplanes, etc. Emergency response is complicated by the pools’ high elevation above ground. NRC has not required pools to have emergency backup power connected to cooling systems, nor emergency make up water. Thus, they...(Keep reading http://www.beyondnuclear.org/storage/catastrophic%20risks%20of%20GE%20BWR%20Mark%20I%20HLRW%20storage%20pools.pdf )

Stop Kudankulam Nuclear Plant! Help Save The Indian Ocean!

Signatures: 51 (Goal: 500)


Petitioning: Chief Justice of India.

Petitioner: Ignatius Fernando started on September 4, 2012
 
We, ardent lovers of humanity and marine life, request the Chief Justice of India to persuade the Govt. of India to keep the Indian Ocean free of nuclear discharges, and convert the Koodankulam Nuclear Plant into an alternative source of energy. Let us present a safer world for our generations to follow.

The Indian and Russian authorities have been adamantly going ahead with the project without respect for the apprehensions of the local villagers.

Nuclear waste from Koodankulam is to be discharged into the Indian Ocean and the local villagers have been engaged in peaceful protests like hunger-strike. The Indian Government has to be persuaded to convert this facility into an alternative source of energy.

Everyone agrees that nuclear waste will remain radioactive forever in the Ocean. ( keep reading & sign the petition Indian Voice )

Iran's first nuclear power reactor Bushehr reaches full capacity

Bushehr reaches full capacity

03 September 2012
Power output from Iran's first nuclear power reactor at Bushehr has reached 100%, the Russian supplier AtomStroyExport (ASE) announced. The unit was connected to the grid almost a year ago.
Bushehr (AtomStroyExport)
Unit 1 of the Bushehr plant (Image: ASE)
The reactor reached full power at 6.47pm on 30 August, ASE said. This is the final stage in commissioning the unit, during which its equipment and systems will be test at full capacity.
German constructor Siemens KWU began work on two pressurized water reactors at the Bushehr site on the Persian Gulf in 1975, but work was abandoned in 1979. At the time, one unit was substantially complete and the second unit was around 50% complete, but the site was damaged by air strikes during the war between Iran and Iraq in 1984-1988.
However, in 1994, Minatom of Russia agreed with the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) to complete Bushehr unit 1 as a VVER-1000 unit, using mostly the infrastructure already in place. This plan also necessitated major changes, including fabrication of all the main reactor components in Russia under a construction contract with AtomStroyExport. 

The world doesn't need any more nuclear power plants...

Tens of thousands of dead fish stink up Lake Erie shore

 September 5th, 2012 

Tens of thousands of dead fish stink up Lake Erie shore
Tens of thousands of dead fish are stinking up a 25-mile stretch of Lake Erie shoreline.














Tens of thousands of dead fish have washed up on a 25-mile stretch of Lake Erie's northern shore, and Ontario environmental officials say they could be victims of a natural phenomenon called a lake inversion.
The inversion brings cold water, which has lower oxygen levels, to the lake's surface and fish suffocate.

"Essentially it's a rolling over of the lake," Ontario Ministry of the Environment spokeswoman Kate Jordan told The Chatham Daily News. "Something whether it be a storm, or cooler temperatures at night, or strong winds triggers a temperature change in the lake."

Jordan said it was windy and choppy on the lake Friday night, according to a report in The Windsor Star. The fish kill was reported Saturday. (Keep reading http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2012/09/05/tens-of-thousands-of-dead-fish-stink-up-lake-erie-shore/?hpt=hp_t3)

Posted: Jan 14, 2012 11:31 AM ET 

Ottawa says it will spend $1.28 billion over 10 years to clean up low-level radioactive waste in the Port Hope area east of Toronto.
The waste came from radium and uranium refining operations of the former Crown corporation Eldorado Nuclear and its private sector predecessors from 1933 to 1988.
The federal government says about 1.7 million cubic metres of the waste is located at sites in Port Hope and Clarington, about 100 kilometres east of Toronto.
The initiative will be carried out as two projects — one for Port Hope and the other for the Clarington site known as Port Granby. (Keep reading...http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/story/2012/01/14/toronto-port-hope.html )

Port Hope's nuclear past pits economic interests against health


In mid-November, when the weather was still gorgeous and tourists were still meandering through its picturesque downtown streets, Helen Caldicott sentenced Port Hope to death.

“It's a disaster,” the renowned doctor and anti-nuclear activist told a gathering of Port Hopers and a crush of reporters crammed into a hotel in Oshawa.

The mess can't be cleaned up, Caldicott said flatly of the low-level radioactive waste sprinkled around Port Hope.

“The entire town should be relocated and the Cameco refinery should be shut down.”
As she finished speaking, some 200 people who had listened attentively for an hour applauded loudly.
Back in Port Hope, residents sighed with frustration, gearing up for yet another fight to save the reputation of their town.

“Caldicott didn't even come here ... she said all those things from Oshawa and left,” says Liz Stewart, 61, a longtime resident. “We are tired of people doing this to Port Hope without knowing the facts. The town is safe and can absolutely be cleaned up.”

And just like that, Port Hope was back in the spotlight.

The town's nuclear past is its legacy and its curse. Eldorado Nuclear Ltd., which refined radium used for treating cancer, and uranium that helped the Manhattan Project develop the first atomic bombs, provided employment to hundreds in the town. But it also left Port Hope riddled with low-level radioactivity — and rancour.

The two have permeated every aspect of life in this town, pitting economic and social interests against health concerns. Friends have become foes. Tourism has taken a beating. Real estate deals have fallen through. Threats have become commonplace.

Uncertainty has become the great dividing line between those on opposing sides of Port Hope's ongoing debate. There is, simply, no middle ground.

The largest cleanup of radioactive waste in Canadian history will begin here later this year, as trucks and mechanical diggers move in to remove contaminated soil from numerous sites around town.
The project may eradicate the dark stain on the town, but it won't tackle the most important questions, some residents say.

“There is low-level radioactive waste everywhere in town . . . but the government has continuously refused to do an extensive health study,” says Andy Johncox, who worked at Eldorado for 14 years, until 1982.
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission says there is no danger to health in Port Hope; that more than 40 studies indicate residents have low levels of exposure to all types of contaminants.

There is, in fact, no undisputed evidence that radioactive materials released into the environment have harmed a single person in Port Hope.

But if the town is so safe, Johncox wonders: Why are millions of dollars being spent to clean it?
“I am all for the cleanup, but there are too many lingering questions,” says Johncox. “I'd really like to know the truth about Port Hope.” (Keep reading....http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/article/968112--port-hope-s-nuclear-past-pits-economic-interests-against-health

‘Inside sources’ being investigated

By Joyce Cassin, Northumberland Today
PORT HOPE - A seemingly innocent e-mail sent to local media outlets is a cause for investigation by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL).

Last week, someone named ‘Michael Strong’ sent an e-mail stating: Families in the vicinity of St. Mary's School (10 Pine St. South) in Port Hope should be worried. Their children have been playing on a load of buried toxic radioactive waste in the playground for years. It’s publicly known that the school building was cleaned up, but “inside sources at the Port Hope Area Initiative” say there are almost 20,000 cubic meters of waste in the school yard also that isn't being talked about.

A call to Judy Herod, acting manager of stakeholder relations and communications, said that it’s well-known that high levels of radon gas were detected back in 1976/77 but that it was “cleaned up.” (Keep reading......http://www.northumberlandtoday.com/2012/09/03/inside-sources-being-investigated)

NUCLEAR GENOCIDE IN CANADA

Part 1

In the Beginning - Port Radium Mine

 
The Port Radium mine opened in 1932 in the North West Territories. Radium is a radioactive material that is part of the decay chain of uranium. In the 1930s, radium was trumpeted as the new wonder drug to cure cancer and as a 'glow-in-the-dark' paint. It was the most expensive material on Earth at the time, commanding prices up to $125,000 per gram.
Canada's Department of Mines warned the Canadian Government in its 1932 'Blood Studies on Port Radium Miners' about the dangers of radiation and radon gas in particular. The report stated "that a hazard may exist in the breathing of air containing even small amounts of radon." No warning was given to the white miners or to the First Nations people from Deline who were hired as porters. The mine shut down and the radium industry collapsed in 1940 when its lethal health effects became known to the public.


One of the main uses for radium at the time was as a paint for the numbers on clock faces so they could be seen in the dark. The painting was done by hand, almost exclusively by women. To get a fine point on the brushes, the women would twirl the brush in their lips, thereby ingesting some of the radium. The health of the women deteriorated quickly; their jaws literally disintegrating.


The Canadian Government expropriated the mine in 1942 and created a company called 'Eldorado Nuclear Ltd' to supply uranium to the American nuclear weapons program. A Federal research team from Montreal sent to monitor the mine in 1945 reported "the radon content seems to be so high as to be definitely dangerous to the health of those working in the mine." Once again, no warning was given to the miners or to the First Nations people who transported the uranium ore.

Village of Widows
The First Nations people of Deline, North West Territories were hired to carry burlap sacks of uranium ore from the mine to the barges on Great Bear Lake. The bags of radioactive ore had to be handled several times on their journey. The workers slept on the bags of uranium all the way to Fort McMurray where they were transferred for shipment to the Port Hope Refinery.


In 1960, cancer claimed its first victim in Deline. They didn't know what it was because there had never been cancer there before. Over the next few years, most of an entire generation of men in the community died as a result of their exposure to the radioactive material. So many men died that Deline has become known as 'The Village of Widows.'


Cindy Kenny-Gilday from Deline wrote:
"Deline is practically a village of widows, most of the men who worked as labourers have died of some form of cancer. The widows, who are traditional women were left to raise their families with no breadwinners, supporters. They were left to depend on welfare and other young men for their traditional food source. This village of young men are the first generation of men in the history of Dene on this lake to grow up without guidance from their grandfathers, fathers and uncles. This cultural, economic, spiritual, emotional deprivation impact on the community is a threat to the survival of the one and only tribe on Great Bear Lake. It's the most vicious example of cultural genocide I have ever seen and its in my own home." 


The people of Deline did not know what was causing it. They contacted the Canadian Government for help. The Canadian Government did nothing despite illness rates twice as high as any other First Nations community in Canada. The Canadian Government waited until 1998 to inform Deline that it was their exposure to radiation that was killing them. They did not make this admission until after the people of Deline had identified the cause through their own research. Andy Orkin, an Ontario lawyer who worked on behalf of the Deline First Nations people said it best:
"We left them to die and hoped they would never ask any questions."

 .......

Summary
The Canadian government was repeatedly warned about the dangers from exposure to radiation from 1931 until 1976 by their own ministries and the American Government. Yet there is not a recorded instance in the 50 year period covered by this paper where the workers were warned of the danger. This is completely unacceptable behaviour from the Canadian government.
The other point to note is that First Nations people paid a much steeper price as a result of their exposure to the nuclear industry than the whites did. Deline, Serpent River and Blind River First Nations have paid a very high price to keep the lights on in Ontario.
