Diablo Canyon - Now Storing Nuclear Waste

10/23/08

DIABLO CANYON – It's a victory for PG&E, but a defeat for the group that's waged war on nuclear waste at Diablo Canyon.

On Thursday, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission gave the okay to a plan to store spent fuel at the facility.

Mothers for Peace, a group of activists on the Central Coast, has been fighting the plan since 2002. They've wanted more research to be done and have questioned if the storage system is safe from terror attacks.

The group had previously won a federal court ruling that forced the NRC to consider its arguments.

In Thursday's three-to-one vote, however, the NRC ruled no more study is necessary.

PG&E plans to move forward with the storage system. It's called dry cask storage, which means the waste will be moved from the cooling pools, which are filling up, to big containers above the ground.

NRC staff members say they studied plausible attack scenarios. They concluded even the worst-case scenarios would result in such a low dose of radiation, it wouldn't cause health problems for the people who live near the plant.

"Today's ruling actually gives people more of a sense of security the NRC has looked into this we do have a very robust, very sound, very safe system for storing our used fuel until the national repository opens," said Swanson.

Jane Swanson, the spokeswoman for Mothers for Peace, says the group is not giving up. With the support of one commissioner and the backing of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, they plan to continue their fight.

More than 50,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel is piling up at nuclear reactors nationwide. The waste is already in dry storage at 47 power plant sites.

These ARE cold blooded people with military minds

Are you listening? 98% of our money supply = created by the banks out of thin air. 10% is only a figurative number on the amount of reserves a bank must have on your deposits. Canada requires that the banks hold 0% in reserve ; because the money is mere paper. People continue to be slaves of the elitists at the top of this pyramid scheme. Because what are their reserves? Gold likely.

Stop the bold faced lying to the American public, you war mongering globalist TOOLS!

Man: " I think, I think I am, therefore I am, I think. "

Establishment: " Of course you are my bright little star,
I've miles
And miles
Of files
Pretty files of your forefather's fruit
and now to suit our
great computer,
You're magnetic ink."

First Man: " I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be."

Inner Man: " There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
Face piles
And piles
Of trials
With smiles.
It riles them to believe
that you perceive
the web they weave
And keep on thinking free. "

The Dream ( Graeme Edge )

When the white eagle of the North is flying overhead
The browns, reds and golds of autumn lie in the gutter, dead.
Remember then, that summer birds with wings of fire flaying
Came to witness springs new hope, born of leaves decaying.
Just as new life will come from death, love will come at leisure.
Love of love, love of life and giving without measure
Gives in return a wonderous yearn of a promise almost seen.
Live hand-in-hand and together we'll stand on the threshold of a dream.
