March 06, 2004 Advertise Subscribe Site Map Front Page ... 13-year-old uses sword to avenge bullying Radioactive waste threatens Central Asia By Burt Herman ASSOCIATED PRESS About 70 million cubic feet of tailings left from refining uranium ore during the Soviet era are buried in this mountain valley along the Mayluu-Suu River. The river runs a short distance to Uzbekistan and the Fergana Valley, the region's agricultural heartland with 12 million inhabitants. Potential disasters could spill from the mountains, said Arip Kokkozov, an official at the Ministry of Ecology and Emergency Situations who monitors Kyrgyz waste sites. Landslides could carry waste into the river; snow and rain could cause leaks from containers built with outdated technology; wind could blow waste through the air; radioactive material could seep into groundwater. "There are many problems. They need to be solved," Mr. Kokkozov said in his office in the southern city of Osh. "If there was enough money, we could fly it all into space," he joked. This debt-saddled former Soviet republic has pleaded for outside help to clean up the sites, arguing it doesn't have the resources to tackle the problem alone. Cleaning up Mayluu-Suu will cost an estimated $17 million, officials say.

88. BRWM - Transportation Of Radioactive Waste: Task 1. What are the principal risks for transporting (including container handling, modal transfers, and conveyance) radioactive waste, and how do they compare http://dels.nas.edu/radwaste/task.html

The principal task of this study will be to develop a high-level synthesis of key technical and societal issues for SNF/HLW transport and to identify technical and policy options for addressing these issues and managing transportation risk. The principal focus of this study will be on the transportation of SNF and HLW in the United States, but the study will draw on international experiences as well as experiences with transporting other waste types. The study will address and provide findings and recommendations on the following four questions: 1. What are the principal risks for transporting (including container handling, modal transfers, and conveyance) radioactive waste, and how do they compare with other societal risks? To what extent have these risks been addressed by previous analyses? 2. At present, what are the principal technical and societal concerns for transporting radioactive waste? To what extent have these concerns been addressed, and what additional work is needed? 3. What are likely to be the principal technical and societal concerns for radioactive waste transportation in the future, especially over the next two decades? 4. What options are available to address these concerns, for example, options involving changes to planned transportation routes, modes, procedures, or other limitations/restrictions; or options for improving the communication of transportation risks to decision makers and the public?

Pollution and Waste Disposal Gulf of the Farallones Disposal Issues The Gulf of the Farallones region, including the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary, lies offshore of San Francisco. The region's varied habitatsfrom coastal wetlands to deep ocean watersupport a rich diversity of marine life and provide nurseries and spawning grounds for commercially valuable fish and crab. Proximity to a major population center makes the Gulf of the Farallones region vulnerable to environmental pressures. One such pressuredisposal of wastewas the subject of a recent study by the U.S. Geological Survey, which sought to answer two questions: What is the fate of more than 47,800 containers of low-level radioactive wastemany of which now lie within the Sanctuary boundarythat were dumped in the ocean between 1946 and 1970? What geological processes characterize deep-ocean areas that may be used as disposal sites for material dredged from San Francisco Bay? To investigate these questions, the USGS cooperated with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the NOAA Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary,

93. The National Radioactive Waste Dump The National radioactive waste Dump. We are putting you on notice , directing you, telling you, Do not dump that radioactive waste on any of our land. http://www.anawa.org.au/sa/nationaldump.html

The National Radioactive Waste Dump LUCAS HEIGHTS REACTOR AUSTRALIA SOUTH AUSTRALIA The campaign against the Federal government proposal to dump the nation's radioactive waste in South Australia has become truly mainstream, with everyone from the State government to the commercial media, anti-nuclear and indigenous groups united in opposition. The national nuclear waste dump is a critical component of the Federal government's plan for a more heavily nuclearised Australia. Waste management is the achilles heel of the nuclear industry worldwide, and what is happening here is a microcosm of the global situation. The government needs to get rid of the waste from existing nuclear operations before an expansion can occur; it has chosen indigenous land as a convenient place to dump the waste, and is now pulling out all the stops to get its way. Except that, locally and globally, the community is standing together to demand a saner course of action. The site options for a low-level dump have been in the public domain for some time, with a handful of sites across South Australia and one at Jackson in WA on the shortlist. The frontrunner for the last few years has been Billa Kalina, an area the size of Tasmania in central South Australia. This is Anti-Kirinya/Umoona Aboriginal country, and the local people have led a fierce resistance to plans for the dump.

Primer on Radioactive Waste What is radiation? Radiation is energy in the form of high speed particles or electromagnetic waves. It can be ionizing or non-ionizing ( see an illustration ). Non-ionizing radiation lacks the energy to alter atoms (e.g., visible light and microwaves). Ionizing radiation has enough energy to change normal cellular functioning. Ionizing radiation may cause cells to die or transform into a cancerous cell. Ionizing radiation is categorized by its strength or energy level into three main categories: Alpha particles , although the most densely ionizing, are the weakest form of ionizing radiation. They can travel a few inches through the air but can be stopped by something as thin as a sheet of paper. This means that cells can be protected or shielded from damage by alpha particles by clothing. Even your skin will protect you from damage from alpha particles. However, if alpha particles are inhaled or ingested or get into a cut on the skin, they can cause damage to cells. As alpha particles decay inside the body, the surrounding cells absorb the radiation. Beta particles contain more energy than alpha particles. These particles are able to travel several feet through the air, but can be stopped with denser materials such as wood, glass or aluminum foil.

"The water was lightly contaminated," said Ommeln, who likened the radioactivity exposure of drinking a liter of the water to having a dental X-ray. Still, the 30,000 liter (7,900 gallon) leak overnight Saturday was not reported to the state Environment Ministry until Monday, prompting criticism from the local government, which requires immediate reporting for all incidents. The ministry also said the contamination was not strong enough to pose a health risk. The spill occurred during the testing of high-speed valves that conduct waste water into tanks. An unexpected increase in pressure blew out one valve that allowed the contaminated water to enter the Rhine. The failure was discovered Sunday.

98. The Sub-Seabed Solution - 96.10 Article in the Atlantic Monthly about long term storage of radioactive waste beneath the ocean floor. http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/96oct/seabed/seabed.htm

The Environment October 1996 The Sub-Seabed Solution Far from being embraced, a promising solution to the radioactive-waste problem faces stiff opposition from the federal government, the nuclear industry, and environmental interests by Steven Nadis I N 1976 a giant coring device mounted to a ship plunged repeatedly into the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, three miles below the surface, bringing up 100-foot-long tubes of mud and clay with the consistency of peanut butter. The primeval muck told a tale of geologic serenity. Sediment records from the cores indicate that the region roughly 600 miles north of Hawaii and spanning an area four times the size of Texas has been tranquil for 65 million years, unperturbed by volcanic activity or by shifting of the earth's tectonic plates. Charles Hollister, a geologist and senior scientist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, saw even more when he gazed at the thick dark ooze. He saw what might prove to be the perfect place to sequester our high-level nuclear waste the most potent and intensely radioactive by-products of military or civilian enterprise.
