Fukushima-WIPP-Radiation Fallout: More proof nuke attack coming from America’s backyard? Proof Fracking uses radioactive material! Utah company denies ‘green’ cat litter caused explosion at WIPP, then fires 115 employees! Idaho’s Mike Simpson tries to take retirement money from nuke workers!

“We are learning that the nuclear accident didn’t contaminate the entire ocean, but created spots that tend to have higher radioactive levels than others.”-Blair Thornton, University of Tokyo’s Institute of Industrial Science

“…the average concentration of cesium-137 was 90 becquerels. But of the locations charted 4 km offshore, 20 sites measured higher than 1,000 becquerels and some locations 6 km offshore registered levels as high as 2,000 becquerels.”-The Asahi Shimbum, Study shows muddy seabed off Fukushima coast has higher levels of contamination

In Japan, the Fukushima Medical University reporting thyroid problems in children are now 40 times what is considered normal. National government officials deny it.

In the backyard of the United States, Bahamian officials have asked for international help in conducting health screenings for people living around the Freeport Industrial Park.  Back in January it was revealed that some products being shipped from Japan, and arriving in Jamaican and Bahamian ports,  are radioactive.

The Bahamian government now admits there are higher than ‘normal’ cases of cancer, birth defects and other health problems among residents living in towns around Freeport Industrial Park.  The area is the industrial center of Bahamas, and is also a free trade zone.  For the past 25 years residents have been reporting massive amounts of pollutants from the Park.  Government officials now asking Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO) and the UN World Health Organisation (WHO) to investigate.

U.S. taxpayers have been paying for radiation detection at Caribbean ports since 2009, under a U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) program.  That’s because your exalted nuclear industries are not as secure as you think.   In 2013, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed 146 “incidents” in which nuclear material was in some way compromised.  In other words, there’s a lot of nuclear material out there in the hands of who knows!  But wait, there’s more!  From 1993-2013 there have been 2477 “incidents involving unauthorized acquisition…..supply, possession, use, transfer or disposal…..of nuclear and other radioactive material” reported to IAEA, and that’s just from the countries that participate in the reporting!

A recent International Relations and Security Network (ISN) article gives a warning about how easy it is to get contraband, including weapons of mass destruction, through the ports of the Caribbean.  My own article, Will new 9-11 attack come from the new money magnet of Bahamas?, suggests that U.S. elected officials know of a coming 9-11 style attack.

In the U.S. state of Alaska, the lower Cook Inlet is being tested for radiation from Fukushima.  Non-profit Cook Inletkeeper is getting social media crowd funding to conduct the testing: “We recognize how important safe seafood and clean water are to Alaskans, not only for personal consumption, but also marketability….We’re sampling water, the FDA is sampling fish so it’s a complementary sampling regime.”-Bob Shavelson

In Ohio, a company called Austin Master Services has been given a license to store nuclear materials used by the petroleum industry.  Local residents were concerned about the whole thing, and company officials revealed that a lot of that nuclear material they’ll be storing/disposing of is used in the fracking process for natural gas.

Austin Master Services specializes in “site decommissioning”.  They use In Situ Object Counting Systems to determine if the radiation waste they collect from the oil industry is ‘safe’ to be dumped into your local landfill!

In Washington, the DoE is finally going to clean up the site of a major incident at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation.  It happened in 1976, and one employee was so irradiated he was called The Atomic Man.

A hot reaction caused a sealed glove box to explode, exposing the operator to a massive dose of americium (500 times safe limits).  The victim was so hot that he had to be initially handled by remote control.  He spent five months in experimental treatments, including shots of zinc DTPA.  He continued to have radical medical problems until he died in 1987.  Government officials declared that he died of a heart attack!

The room where the explosion happened is now going to be cleaned up, as part of ongoing demolitions of the Plutonium Finishing Plant.

It’s been revealed that contractors at Hanford have spent at least $3.5 million USD in legal expenses, and a U.S. Senator discovered that taxpayers are actually paying for those legal fees: “The Department of Energy may be providing an incentive to contractors to engage in protracted litigation with whistleblowers by reimbursing the contractors’ legal expenses.”-Claire McCaskill, Senator from Missouri

A long time resident and real estate developer in Hanford has died at the age of 79.  He died of leukemia.

Utah based EnergySolutions, which packages waste at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), denies their ‘green’ cat litter caused the explosions in its nuke waste shipments to New Mexico‘s Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP).   DoE investigators suspect organic cat litter found in the mixed waste drums absorbed and concentrated certain chemicals, resulting in a chemical reaction explosion.

Miles Smith, of EnergySolutions, says they followed DoE packing instructions and that a hot reaction could not have occurred from inside the drums: “…we don’t think it has the ability to start burning on its own. It needs an outside source of ignition.”

Despite their denials, Energy Solutions has laid off 115 employees since the March WIPP explosions!  Some reports say it’s because their LANL contracted had ended, other reports say it’s because LANL has had to shift funds to the ongoing WIPP investigation.

The DoE has begun phase two of their WIPP investigation, which will include basically what they’ve been doing in phase one; a lot of observation.

It will include “restoring mine habitability”.  This implies the radiation levesl are too high for humans to remain long enough to conduct a proper investigation.  DoE admits they can’t even move the suspect mixed waste drums.

Meanwhile, U.S. Congressmen continue to screw around with funds for investigating the WIPP hot reactions.  This time employees of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) were seeing their  retirement funds whittled away.  Congress wants to take $120-million from the retirement fund to help pay for the WIPP fiasco.  Idaho’s dynastic Mike Simpson tried to lie to the NNSA employees: “It’s a high priority for me that WIPP is returned to full and safe operations as soon as possible. There are some misunderstandings regarding the funding source…concerns that it would adversely affect contributions made into the department’s contractor employee pension plans. I would like to assure members that this bill will meet all requirements for employees’ pensions, which are contractual obligations assumed by the department as part of its operations and maintenance contracts.”

Despite Simpson’s claims, an amendment was introduced to try and protect the NNSA retirement money, and it was adopted unanimously.

Fukushima-WIPP-Radiation Fallout: Fukushima reporting intentionally dumbed down, police fail to stop massive looting, radiation is hitting the U.S.! Reactor 2 full blown China Syndrome? WIPP explosion could kill jobs in Idaho, South Carolina and New Mexico! Cell phones are False Flag birth control?

In Sudan, a Chinese oil company evacuated their employees when a radioactive oil exploration device was left exposed at the oil drilling site.  The device was supposed to be “secured” underground.  At least 70 employees are now under medical observation.  Sudanese news media broke the story, and also claim that the Chinese oil company, and the private hospital where the workers were taken, are trying to hush up the incident.

In the U.S. state of West Virginia, a shale oil drilling company has dumped radioactive sludge in a landfill. It was confirmed by the state Division of Water and Waste Management. The sludge was originally rejected by a Pennsylvania landfill.

“We’re still paying the mortgage on the Cold War.”-Scott Kovac, Nuclear Watch New Mexico

In the U.S. state of New Mexico, the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) cost taxpayers $2.5-billion USD just to build.  Now it’s shutdown because of what looks to be carelessness on the part of the operator and National Laboratories (which caused a truck fire and a chemical reaction explosion spewing radiation from the site), and could result in job losses at three National Laboratory locations.

WIPP was created to deal with the growing military nuclear waste being generated at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, Savanna River Site in South Carolina and the Idaho National Laboratory.   Since WIPP opened for business it has filled up 53% of its underground nuke waste storage, at a cost to taxpayers of $6-billion.   WIPP’s shutdown means those National Laboratories will be forced to cut back on operations, because there is nowhere to (legally) store the nuke waste they generate.

By the way, a subcommittee of the U.S. House of Representatives is recommending a bill to spend $120-million to clean up the mess caused by the WIPP disaster, and that’s on top of WIPP’s $220-million operating budget for fiscal 2015.

The U.S. Department of Energy is now considering the possibility that highly acidic waste was inside six of the mixed waste drums that erupted in WIPP.   The acidic waste reacted with organic (‘green’) cat litter (absorbent) also inside the drums.  Los Alamos National Laboratory is the source of the six drums.  LANL nuke waste operations are now under investigation.

Speaking of Idaho National Laboratory, the contractor operating the controversial site Battelle Energy Alliance is being sued by former employees and their families for exposure to plutonium.   The latest lawsuit says the contractor withheld information or offered false information concerning a 2011 leak, and that leak led to the contamination of homes.

In the U.S. state of Oregon, Oregon State University confirms that radiation from Fukushima Daiichi is building on the Pacific coast of the North America.  Radiation levels in Albacore tuna, caught off the coast of Oregon, are now triple what they were before the nuke disaster: “A year of eating albacore with these cesium traces is about the same dose of radiation as you get from spending 23 seconds in a stuffy basement from radon gas……”-Delvin Neville, researcher

In Japan’s Fukushima Prefecture, police have done a good job of keeping evacuated homeowners out of the radiation No-Go zones, but yet burglars are free to roam!  Prefectural officials have admitted that more than 1200 evacuated homes have been burgled since the disasters in 2011!   The failure of law enforcement was revealed by homeowners who were allowed to return home temporarily.   Police also admitted that in May of this year 90 burglaries took place!  One man has been arrested, and the big fail cops say they will now patrol the No-Go zones.

Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCo) discovered that the cooling water level in Fukushima Daiichi’s GE designed reactor Unit 2 is much lower than they thought. And gee where’s the melted nuclear fuel?  TEPCo officials found that the water level was only 30cm (11.8 inches) deep, and they could not see the melted fuel rods.  They said they didn’t know where the water was leaking out from.  Here’s my suggestion: China Syndrome.

There are reports saying that Fukushima Medical University claims that 48% of 375-thousand young people tested for contamination are now suffering from pre-cancerous thyroid problems!  Also, 120 types of childhood cancers have been found.  Normally they’d expect only three types!

A Korean journalism professor revealed why news about Fukushima Daiichi is so watered down: “NHK never showed graphic footage that could alarm the viewers, like the meltdown of the nuclear reactors. The broadcaster has a manual about reporting such accidents — they do not show explosions, or close-ups of the sites. They do not show dead bodies. They stick to these principles. NHK played a big role in assuring the Japanese people of their safety at such a difficult time for their country.”-Lee Yeon, Sun Moon University, who advocates such a misleading policy for news outlets

And Down Under, Radio Australia reported that the neo-imperialist Abe government of Japan has installed right wingers to run NHK (Nippon Housou Kyoukai/Japan Broadcasting Corporation), which will further reduce NHK’s credibility: “I’m disgusted by this. There’s some kind of right-wing revolution happening in Japan and they want NHK to be part of it. It threatens the existence of NHK as a public broadcaster and it will become the same as the broadcaster in North Korea.”-Kawasaki Yushuki, former NHK reporter

Yet more studies say cell phones are radioactive. At least 19 separate studies concluded that men who keep their cell phones in their front pants pocket are killing off their sperm.   Another study says pregnant women are affecting their unborn child’s brain development by blabbing on cell phones.   And if you think it’s all BS, then why does C/NET keep track of Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) data off cell phones: “…a handset’s SAR is sometimes printed in phone’s user manual, but where it is in those manuals and how it is listed can vary widely. Other times, the SAR is available only online, which forces users to hunt it down, possibly through the FCC’s Web site (not a fun experience, trust me). …..By posting our charts, we’re just making it easier for our readers to find the information that they want.”

C/NET offers this advice: A phone’s SAR can vary during a call as you alternate between transmission bands and as you increase your distance from a tower.
Text instead of placing a voice call or use a speakerphone or headset when possible.
Carry your phone in a bag rather than in a pocket. If you’re pregnant, avoid carrying a phone next to your abdomen.
Children, who have smaller and thinner skulls, should take extra care.
People of any age should not sleep with an active phone under the pillow.
Accessories may help….cases, which are designed to refocus RF energy away from your head while not reducing signal strength….By all means avoid the shiny, gold-lined radiation “shields” that you can find online. They’re a scam.

Fukushima – WIPP – Radiation fallout: New Mexico compromised! More lies revealed at Fukushima! Increasing cancer rates in Massachusetts?

11 May 2014 (00:47 UTC-07 Tango)/11 Rajab 1435/21 Ordibehesht 1393/13 Ji-Si 4712
“The scientific research base shows that there is no threshold of exposure below which low levels of ionizing radiation can be demonstrated to be harmless or beneficial.  The health risks – particularly the development of solid cancers in organs, rise proportionally with exposure.  At low doses of radiation, the risk of inducing solid cancers is very small.  As the overall lifetime exposure increases, so does the risk.”-Richard R. Monson, Harvard School of Public Health

“A preponderance of scientific evidence shows that even low doses of ionizing radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, are likely to pose some risk of adverse health effects….”-National Academy of Sciences, 2005 press release

In Massachusetts, U.S.A., near the Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station the Massachusetts Cancer Registry confirms dense levels of cancer. Between 2002 and 2009 there was a 95% chance of developing leukemia, if you lived in the towns of Carver, Duxbury, Kingston, Marshfield, Pembroke, Plymouth, and Plympton.

The Registry also revealed the majority of cancer cases in the Bay State can be found in the above mentioned seven towns, which reside in the shadow of the Pilgrim Nuclear facility.  Contamination has been a problem for awhile now. A 1982 survey showed cesium-137 levels in local milk was 1-million times higher than expected!  The nuclear power plant operator blamed it on Chinese nuclear bomb tests on the other side of the world.

The Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station was designed by GE (General Electric) and built by Bechtel.  It uses boiling water reactors (BWR) similar to those used at Fukushima Daiichi.

In Missouri, U.S.A., after residents paid for their own radiological testing of soil around a landfill containing nuclear waste, the U.S. EPA is now going to conduct their own testing.

The Boston Chemical Data Group says soil samples showed the Bridgeton Athletic Complex, and a nearby ditch, are highly contaminated.  The laboratory also warned that nobody should use the park until the EPA gets involved.  The EPA and the nut-less city of Bridgeton (which has repeatedly told concerned residents to blow off) will conduct testing on 19 May.

In New Mexico, U.S.A., the state’s Environment Department Secretary, Ryan Flynn, is calling for the total shutdown of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP).  Flynn made the statement after Jim Blankenhorn, the Nuclear Waste Partnership Recovery Manager, said WIPP will be closed for at least three years.  Flynn says so far the federal investigators are making their claims based on pure guess work, kind of like what’s been happening in Japan: “We need to know what happened. We absolutely need to know. But we need to make decisions based on facts!”

In Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, yet another study that says Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCo) is flat lying about radiation contamination levels!  Fukushima University’s Institute of Environmental Radioactivity reporting that actual cesium-137 levels are at least 50% higher than what TEPCo has reported!

Last week the TEPCo’s manager of the clean up at Fukushima Daiichi, Ono Akira, revealed that all efforts to stop ongoing contaminated water leaks have failed: “It’s embarrassing to admit, but there are certain parts of the site where we don’t have full control.”

Fukushima WIPP Radiation fallout: Comedy of errors in Japan, more deadly lies exposed! Missouri residents testing for radiation, scares the crap out of EPA! Taxpayer funded dumb ass WIPP experts clueless!

17 April 2014 (22:27 UTC-07 Tango 16 April 2014)/16 Jumada t-Tania 1435/28 Farvardin 1393/18 Wu-Chen 4712

Residents living near the West Lake Landfill in Bridgeton, Missouri U.S.A., have just received $16-thousand USD worth of radiation detecting equipment, from a private donor (The private donor is a lawyer who is now suing the Landfill operators).  This is because the landfill is full of uranium waste, dumped there in the 1970s, and is a Superfund cleanup site.

Residents appealed to the U.S. EPA for help, but were blown off.  The EPA claims the landfill is safe, saying the radiation is “contained” to the 81 hectare (200 acres) Superfund site.  The community has learned that the EPA never did any radiological testing outside the Landfill.  Two groups, Missouri Coalition for the Environment and Just Moms SLT, recently conducted their own soil sampling and discovered high levels of radiation in the residential areas around the Landfill.

The groups also tested the city baseball park located next to the site, and the city officials responded by calling  the action terroristic “trespassing”.  The new radiation detection equipment includes monitors to test for airborne radiation.

But wait, late breaking news!  The chicken shit EPA has just suddenly (literally as I write this) reversed its decision and has announced it will conduct testing around the West Lake Landfill!  You citizens go ahead with your testing, don’t ever trust them government assholes!

If you’ve been religiously following the Fukushima disaster you would know that the only sources for reliable info on radiation contamination has been coming from universities, NGOs and individual citizens, not government agencies or the corporations.  As a result, Tokyo Electric Power Company has been outed many times for lying about their official radiation numbers.

Speaking of unreliable governments who lie, The Asahi Shimbum revealed that two weeks after some evacuees were told to return to their homes, just recently, that the actual airborne and individual radiation readings in those areas now deemed safe by the government, are still at dangerous levels: “Individual radiation doses were estimated to be beyond 1 millisievert per year……..

……..average air dose rates exceeded 0.23 microsievert per hour at 27 of the 43 sites…..”

Speaking of Fukushima Daiichi.  The past week has been a comedy of errors, of course blamed on the throwaway workers.  Unfortunately it’s not funny because it resulted in more highly contaminated water being spilled.

First their experimental ALPS water filtration system shut down again, this time one of the highly expensive ceramic filters actually broke, and they don’t know how.  It was as if something hard hit the filter and chipped off some of the ceramic.

In another case, somehow 200 metric tons of contaminated water was pumped into a building that wasn’t even meant to hold water!  The basement was flooded before anybody knew what was going on.  TEPCo claims they’ve pumped out all the water and sent it to the correct storage area.  TEPCo claims pumps that were not supposed to be in use were for some reason turned on.  This has happened before and I’ve speculated sabotage, or a false flag op.

Then another problem with ALPS. 1-thousand liters of water used for washing the system was somehow leaked and flooded the ALPS building.  The water is contaminated with 3.8-million becquerels of  strontium and 6,700 becquerels of cesium 137!  No explanation for the leak.

Of course TEPCo blames everything on its contracted throwaway workers.

In New Mexico, U.S.A., “independent” investigators claim the reservoir water around the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is safe.

Are you wondering why nothing is being reported on the investigation into the shut down WIPP?  One scientist says those dumb ass nuke experts are clueless, that’s why: “The fundamental point is there is no example in the world of a radiologically contaminated underground salt mine. They really do have to make it up as they go…..”-Don Hancock, Nuclear Waste Safety Program with nonprofit Southwest Research and Information Center

More Fukushima Fallout: Hawaiians fearful! Record levels of Cesium found in new test well! Medical personnel flee! New survey says people don’t trust main stream news reports! IAEA wants to dump more radiation into the Ocean!

13 February 2014 (12:35 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Rabi ‘ath-Thani 1435/24 Bahman 1392/14 Bing-Yin (1st month) 4712

The UN International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) wants TEPCo to conduct “controlled discharges” of radiation (including tritium) into the Pacific Ocean: “The IAEA team believes it is necessary to find a sustainable solution to the problem of managing contaminated water….”-IAEA International Peer Review Mission On Mid-And-Long-Term Roadmap Towards The Decommissioning Of TEPCO’s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Units 1-4 (Second Mission)

Tokyo Electric Power Company has revealed that a new groundwater test well is full of record levels of cesium 137 and 134.  The new well was dug near Fukushima Daiichi’s reactor Unit 2.

TEPCo detected 54-thousand becquerels per liter of cesium 137 and 22-thousand Bq per liter of cesium 134 in the groundwater.  They still don’t know where it’s coming from.  This week’s water c-137 samples are 30-thousand times higher than samples taken last week, at a different well.

The announcement came just a couple of days after Japan’s Nuclear Regulation Authority criticized TEPCo for hiding data on massive amounts of strontium 90 contamination.  The NRA officials said TEPCo detected the record levels of strontium 90 last September, but waited until five days ago to publicize it.  TEPCo had originally claimed they delayed publicizing the record levels of contamination because they believed their detection equipment was faulty.  (and if you’ve read all my Fukushima articles you’ll know they’ve used that excuse before)

A hospital in Fukushima Prefecture is asking for help, as many nurses refused to return to work after the March 2011 nuclear explosions.   Hirono Town Hospital officials held a recruiting event in Tokyo to try an convince nurses there to work in the nuclear disaster area.  Officials said that before the nuke disasters they had 33 nurses.  For awhile after they had only five nurses, but that number is now up to 20 nurses.  They say it’s still not enough for them to take on new patients.  The recruiting efforts include letting prospective nurses serve on ‘tours of duty’ in Hirono Town.  So far 20 nurses have served on the tours of duty, but only six have decided to stay on permanently.

The Fukushima International Association released the results of their study on foreign nationals living in the prefecture.  Most evacuated after the nuclear disasters began, but many have since returned.  However, only 53 out of 100 foreign nationals knew there was a nuclear power plant in the area prior to the explosions!  Prior to the March 2011 disasters 11190 foreign residents were living in the prefecture, as of June 2013 there were 9489 foreigners.  The number one complaint from foreigners was the lack of trustworthy information from the main stream news media, and government.

Fukushima Governor Sato Yuhei is once again pointing out the incompetence of neo-imperialist national government officials.  It turns out that the national government wants to use three towns, which are currently not adversely affected by the nuke disaster, as nuke waste storage sites.  Sato told the national government that the mayors are complaining that by turning them into nuke waste sites it will destroy their efforts to rebuild their towns.  If you think about it, why not store the nuke waste in the areas that are already highly contaminated?

A new $1-billion USD lawsuit has been filed against TEPCo.  It involves at least 79 USN personnel who took part in Operation Tomodachi, as well as a infant born with genetic problems, a U.S. teenager who was living near the disaster reactors when they blew up, and up to 70-thousand additional U.S. citizens!

‘Elected’ officials in the U.S. state of Hawaii say they are getting swamped with phone calls from people demanding proof that the food in Hawaii is not contaminated with radiation from Fukushima Daiichi!

Radiation mystery at Idaho National Laboratory, Cesium & Cobalt

U.S. department of Energy reported on April 6, 2012, that radioactive particles of cesium and cobalt are being found on construction materials.

A contractor discovered the contamination.  Officials think it could be from the demolition of old buildings in that area of the INL site, which would imply that the buildings were contaminated before being torn down.

A local east Idaho DOE spokesman said there was no concern “…unless you get it onto your skin…” and you had “…prolonged exposure…”

Employees and vehicles are now being checked for contamination as they enter and leave the site.

Japanese children contaminated with Cesium 134!

A group of concerned parents, not happy with government response, formed an organization called The Fukushima Network for Saving Children from Radiation.  They took urine samples from 10 kids, from elementary to high school age, and had a French company test them.

The result showed that all the kids are internally contaminated with cesium 134.  An eight year old girl has 1.13 becquerels of cesium-134 per liter.  The children live in Fukushima City, which is 60 kilometers (37 miles) from the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.

The Fukushima Network for Saving Children from Radiation says this is proof that radiation is continuing to be emitted by the damaged nuke plant, and it is spreading.
