Obama Approves Raising Permissible Levels of Nuclear Radiation in Drinking Water. Civilian Cancer Deaths Expected to Skyrocket
what happened america?? when did we fall asleep and let this happen?

The White House has given final approval for dramatically raising permissible radioactive levels in drinking water and soil following “radiological incidents,” such as nuclear power-plant accidents and dirty bombs. The final version, slated for Federal Register publication as soon as today, is a win for the nuclear industry which seeks what its proponents call a “new normal” for radiation exposure among the U.S population, according Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER).

Issued by the Environmental Protection Agency, the radiation guides (called Protective Action Guides or PAGs) allow cleanup many times more lax than anything EPA has ever before accepted. These guides govern evacuations, shelter-in-place orders, food restrictions and other actions following a wide range of “radiological emergencies.” The Obama administration blocked a version of these PAGs from going into effect during its first days in office. The version given approval late last Friday is substantially similar to those proposed under Bush but duck some of the most controversial aspects:

In soil, the PAGs allow long-term public exposure to radiation in amounts as high as 2,000 millirems. This would, in effect, increase a longstanding 1 in 10,000 person cancer rate to a rate of 1 in 23 persons exposed over a 30-year period

Maybe they have no choice.Maybe everything is contaminated and can never be cleaned up to meet the now standards.As long as people live they have to drink and eat and if everything is contaminated then people still have to use it or starve to death.
If you have to choose between dieing in a few days or surviving with possibility of cancer 30 years from now then most will choose the latter.
I still believe radiation is killing off a lot of stuff and causing changing weather,etc even thought most disagree.

Re: Obama Approves Raising Permissible Levels of Nuclear Radiation in Drinking Water. Civilian Cancer Deaths Expected to Skyrocket
now they want to put a Desalination Plant just north of a nuke plant not to far from me, no wonder why they want to raise the levels

“I am horrified by the prospect of drinking Hudson River water,” said Rita Louie, deputy mayor of the Village of Pomona, a community of 3,000 that straddles the Rockland County towns of Haverstraw and Ramapo.

Rockland residents’ concerns about Indian Point are justified, said Paul Gallay, president of Riverkeeper, an organization that advocates for the health of the Hudson River and its tributaries.

The aging nuclear plant sits on two active earthquake faults. In the event of an accident that releases radiation, the desalination plant could be removing salt from contaminated water, although United Water New York says it would be shut down if such an accident occurs.

Even without an accident, Indian Point is permitted by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to release into the river small amounts of radioactive chemicals, including tritium and strontium-90.

Reverse osmosis water treatment processes, including the one that United Water plans for its desalination plant, do not remove all traces of strontium-90 from the water, says Hayley Carlock, an environmental advocacy attorney for the nonprofit Scenic Hudson in nearby Poughkeepsie, New York.

Radioactive fracking fluid, I just don't see why you would add radioactive anything to fracking fluid unless you are disposing of it covertly.

There is big money in death, not just for doctors, but in death taxes and all the consolidation that takes place. The vultures and parasites can live fat through it all.

Do you understand that this Levels are valid only
in the case of a declared State of Emergency (nuclear Disaster)
but not in our normal and daily Life?

Please research it. hf
