NH#77: SAN ONOFRE SPOTLIGHT - SCE/NRC Meeting, Buddhist Monks, Plant Sabotage

SPOTLIGHT:

San Onofre really heated up last week:

• Possible sabotage at Unit 3 now being investigated by the FBI;
• Radwaste steam generator leaking radiation at the SanO gates;
• Buddhist monks in San Clemente praying/fasting/chanting/meditating for an end to nuclear;
• NRC/SCE public meeting on SCE planned restart muzzles activists (as usual)… and Nuclear Hotseat is there!

PLUS:

• Greenpeace releases weather balloon to track potential Darlington radiation release at Canadian nuke summit;
• Whistleblowers charge NRC with valuing secrecy over safety;
• Oyster Creek springs a leak post-Sandy;
• Chernobyl getting a new containment structure (’cause the sarcophagus is falling apart);
• and the body/mind connection betrays SCE’s biggest lie and weakest link.

BONUS:

Enenews.com, one of the most reliable sources for nuclear information, recently compiled a list of the 33 top headlines/articles of the year to date.  Even if you’re familiar with the individual stories, seeing them all together is a mind-blower.  Check it out here:
