Nuclear Safety?, Bribes, & DIY Radioactive Decontamination: Fukushima update 1/21/13
Channel: MsMilkytheclown1

Gist of new safety standards proposed for reactors
NOTE the fine text that NHK did NOT report: Part of the new standards will be used as criteria from July for restarting nuclear plants that are currently off-line.

Nuclear Operators reveal "payout" amounts.  Note to viewer: replace the word Payout or Donation with BRIBE.  The magic of words never ceases to amaze me.

Do it Yourself radioactive decontamination.  OMG... Seriously?  Seriously?!

The Games People Play
In this week's podcast, Fairewinds looks at how difficult it is for the public to meaningfully participate in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's licensing process.  Arnie Gundersen was retained by Friends of the Earth to assess major problems at the San Onofre nuclear plant in California that have caused a year long shutdown.  Arnie met with the NRC this week concerning  his analysis of what went wrong and how the problems were foreseeable.  In this podcast, Arnie discusses how the NRC and Southern California Edison deliberately withheld information to make his technical analysis more difficult to accomplish.  Fairewinds taped the meeting, so our podcast listeners can hear for themselves the difficulties Arnie encountered and the games the NRC and Southern California Edison played to prevent his participation.
