Hanford Nuclear Reservation Leaking Radiation...NRC Says NOPE !
Friends and Associates:
This eBlast tags along with (our) discussions about CHEMTRAILS and "are they trying to kill us?"
Another
looming disaster, one after an another, is on the verge of seriously
injuring millions of Americans. America's nuclear power plants are old
and breaking-down and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) say's
"no....just minor problems, therefore...move along there's nothing to
see here!"
Over 150 incidents since 2001, and rarely do we hear anything about them.....
They
built nuclear power plants on faults, next to rivers and oceans, and
area residents are in extreme risk of radiation poisoning, some analysts
say..."will exceed Fukushima or Chernobyl." At the very least, power
grid shutdown(s). A majority of Nuclear Plants are now flawed.
The
latest event near Spokane Washington should raise a few eyebrows, and
again....the NRC says there's nothing wrong. (see article below). The
problem with nuclear waste, radiation is never going away in our
lifetime....it just keeps accumulating.
The bottom line is money with most everything that is dangerous and life threatening to the population.
Those
involved directly with failing nuclear plants, chemical geo-engineering
weather modification, vaccines, GMO crops, fluoride toxic waste in the
drinking water, sub-standard bridges, railroads, and huge pot holes on
many interstates, we have a problem that will burst like a balloon.
Do
THEY care about your death, or your child's autism and grandpa's lost
memory? Hell no !! Are THEY neglecting our safety over their bottom
line? You betchya !
Those
we call THEY...are the same ones that keep us in wars with a bogus enemy
in-order to save the dollar from collapse by being the largest arms
dealing nation in the world. You can't sell death unless there is a war,
and you can't save toilet paper money unless you "strong-arm" nations
into accepting the fiat dollar (only) backed by debt and threats. Note:
Recent financial events around the world will force the dollar to
collapse....say hello to WWIII ?
The
bureaucratic stupidity to keep the population dumbed-down, concerning
the seriousness of what we face (with the help of mainstream media),
will continue in-order to assure retirement pensions of those that will
die anyway from what THEY fail to fix now...or acknowledge. Billions and
billions of dollars spent on wars could solve America's death grip on
the population.
That's why
there has been a big push to make "whistle blowing" illegal, followed by
shutting down alternative media and political bloggers. THEY don't want
you and me talking-down foreign policy in-order to persuade Congress to
stop the Muslim-in-Chief from launching our men and women into a death
trap overseas.
One of the
most damaging events that continues to taint our seafood, crops and
cattle with radiation, is Fukushima. As the radiation levels climb over
one third of the western states, the "normal amount" keeps rising in
unison....and people don't care, especially when half the population
believe the "official government reports" and SNOPES as their truth.
THEY
are deceiving us.... and health hazards are written-off by the medical
industrial complex and this rogue government as non-related to the
actual source. Before the internet and rapid information, THEY had us by
the cahones.
"An
analysis of individual plant risks released in 2003 by the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission shows that for 39 of the 104 nuclear reactors, the
risk of core damage from a blackout was greater than 1 in 100,000. At
45 other plants the risk is greater than 1 in 1 million, the threshold
NRC is using to determine which severe accidents should be evaluated in
its latest analysis. According to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the
Beaver Valley Power Station, Unit 1, in Pennsylvania has the greatest
risk of experiencing a core meltdown, 6.5 in 100,000, according to the
analysis. These odds don’t sound like much until you consider that we
have 124 nuclear power generating plants in the US and Canada and when
we consider each individual facility, the odds of failure climb. How
many meltdowns would it take in this country before our citizens would
be condemned to the hellish nightmare, or worse, being experienced by
the Japanese?"

Officials
for the Hanford Nuclear Reservation are trying to determine if a second
giant tank containing radioactive waste from the production of
plutonium for nuclear weapons is leaking
By NICHOLAS K. GERANIOS Associated Press
SPOKANE,
Washington — Officials for the Hanford Nuclear Reservation are trying
to determine if a second giant underground tank containing radioactive
waste from the production of plutonium for nuclear weapons is leaking,
the U.S. Department of Energy revealed on Tuesday.
Air
monitors attached to an aging tank known as AY-101 recently found
radiation at higher than normal background levels, the agency said.
A
video inspection of the underground tank found no evidence that
radioactive waste had leaked from the primary tank into the space
between the two walls, Hanford officials said. While a new leak is a
possibility, they have found no evidence of one.
"We
want to discredit that potential before we make any statement," said
Tom Fletcher, the U.S. Department of Energy's tank farms manager at
Hanford.
A Hanford watchdog group on Tuesday
contended the higher radiation found by the air monitors was evidence
of a leak in a second tank. Hanford Challenge is based in Seattle.
"The
presence of these radioactive materials in the outer shell of the tank,
known as the annulus, is a solid indicator that the primary shell of
the tank has failed and is leaking high-level nuclear waste into the
outer shell," said Mike Geffre, a former Hanford worker now on the board
of Hanford Challenge.
Earlier this month,
Hanford officials revealed that a tank known as AY-102 had leaked
several thousand gallons of radioactive waste from its primary tank into
the annulus.
It was the first of the 28
double-walled tanks at Hanford to be found to have leaked. That waste is
being pumped back into the primary tank.
The
sprawling Hanford site is located near Richland, Washington, and was
constructed during World War II to make plutonium, a key ingredient in
nuclear weapons. The site is now engaged in cleaning up the leftover
waste at a cost of more than $2 billion per year.

The most dangerous wastes
are stored in 177 underground tanks, most of them old, single-walled
tanks, some of which have leaked. The double-walled tanks were presumed
to be much safer.
U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Oregon, a frequent Hanford critic, said the situation there was urgent.
"In
light of today's developments, I will also be asking the U.S.
Government Accountability Office to examine what and when DOE knew about
the leaks in these tanks, the adequacy of the department's tank safety
efforts and responses to the deteriorating condition of all of the
high-level waste tanks," Wyden said.
Fletcher,
in a telephone interview with The Associated Press, said air samples
checked on April 6 and April 14 showed some elevated levels of
radioactivity within the annulus of tank AY-101, which is more than 40
years old and contains about 578,000 gallons of waste.
They did a video inspection of the annulus and found no evidence of a leak, Fletcher said.
"There
are a number of potential sources this could come from," Fletcher said,
including a leak that might have so far escaped detection.
Fletcher said Hanford officials will continue to study the problem, but he could offer no deadline for solving the riddle.
Hanford
Challenge, quoting unnamed sources inside Hanford, said the air monitor
recorded above-background levels of Cesium-137 and plutonium in the
annulus.
The possible failure of a second
double-shell tank at Hanford is serious because Hanford is running out
of space to store waste from leaking tanks, said Tom Carpenter, director
of Hanford Challenge.
"There is no other
realistic option but to begin building new tanks immediately," Carpenter
said. Those tanks would take several years to build, the group said.
Hanford
stores about two-thirds of the nation's high-level nuclear waste,
Hanford Challenge said. Dealing with that waste is expected to take
decades and cost billions of dollars.
