Fukushima Update: MASSIVE FAILURE AT FUKUSHIMA. p53 | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 46552577 United States 07/03/2014 07:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here is a tidbit of information that might explain why so many have kept quite about Fukushima. The Obama appointee to the NRC, William Magwood, used to work for TEPCO as a consultant prior to joining the NRC. Now, they may not mean much to some, but it may explain why Obama has said little about Fukushima. The US Regulatory Commission is in bed with TEPCO. SNIP As reported in October, Bill Magwood, an Obama appointee, spent many years in the Bush administration’s Department of Energy as director of the Office of Nuclear Energy. During that time, Magwood was alleged to have had regular private meetings with Marvin Fertel, then-Senior Vice President and now President and CEO of the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), the lobbying arm of the nuclear power industry. (Not, coincidently, Fertel is quoted in several of this week’s stories hostile to Greg Jaczko.) FOIA requests were filed for records of those meetings, but Magwood’s email correspondence and calendars were destroyed just one month after he left the DOE in 2005. After leaving the Bush administration, Magwood formed a consulting firm, Advanced Energy Strategies, which had as clients many of the nuclear power companies he dealt with at the Department of Energy and is now tasked with regulating as a commissioner at the NRC. One of those clients, as was uncovered this week by The Huffington Post’s Ryan Grim, was TEPCO, the Japanese power consortium that officially still owns and operates the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear facility. And that’s not all: Magwood’s recent client list makes up a who’s who of Japanese power and nuclear companies, and included CLSA Japan Equities Division, the Federation of Electrical Power Companies in Japan (FEPC), IBT Corporation, Marubeni Corporation, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, RW Beck, Sumitomo Corporation and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency, which was roundly criticized for its response to the crisis. It is Jaczko’s use of his authority to push for new rules based on the post-Fukushima Near-Term Task Force (NTTF) recommendations that reportedly triggered the discord that motivated Issa’s current... |

During my visit to Japan this week, people have asked me from time to time, “Are there technologies in the US that can help solve this problem?” The reality is there is no technology that exists anywhere to solve this problem.

After watching some of Jaczko's videos on Fukushima, I can see why he had to go. He actually wanted to do better and prevent another Fukushima. I am still researching all of this. |

Great find Mountain Woman!!! Roberts and Jaczko seem upfront, honest, and sincere. Interesting how this is just now getting out (a full 1 year after it was published). He talks about a station black-out even that leads to a release of radiation. - Interesting. Chugiakian |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 46552577 United States 07/04/2014 12:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to spectrum.ieee.org] SNIP Jaczko spoke to IEEE Spectrum following his participation in an anti-nuclear event in New York City at which speakers discussed the lessons that could be learned from the Fukushima Daiichi accident. Speakers also included former Japanese prime minister Naoto Kan, who headed the government during the Fukushima accident, and Ralph Nader. Several speakers talked about New York's Indian Point nuclear power station, and Jaczko expressed his personal opinion that the plant should be shut down. Jaczko argued that more Fukushima-type accidents are inevitable if the world continues to rely on the current types of nuclear fission reactors, and he believes that society will not accept nuclear power on that condition. "For nuclear power plants to be considered safe, they should not produce accidents like this," he said. "By 'should not' I don’t mean that they have a low probability, but simply that they should not be able to produce accidents like this [at all]. That is what the public has said quite clearly. That is what we need as a new safety standard for nuclear power going forward." |

I charge the cells with the audio files i already have saved 2. I hook them up to a basic antenna or array 3. sit back and watch my rad levels drop to constant low This is if it works and I've done it properly Fingers crossed, as nothing else is working....
