  • @Rob in SF I hadn't thought about mining cryptome, they have quite a bit of that kind of data.

  • wow oh wow.. that was fast.. I just received an email from WASH DC and they said I am welcome to attend...

  • @Rob in SF If you find any worldwide data all in one place that would be great.
    by Nancy 5/23/2011 7:44:44 PM

  • @dean Yeah!
    by Nancy 5/23/2011 7:44:53 PM

  • << knees knocking now.. ha ha .. NOT really ..now to see if I can pull it off... is there anyone from the DC area linked up with us?

  • @Nancy Haven't found anything WW yet...
    by Rob in SF 5/23/2011 7:46:09 PM

  • salute BO.. how's warsaw
    by dean 5/23/2011 7:49:25 PM

  • @nancy, elainekirk, IKval good suggestions. The facts about what actually are in fuku spent fuels and reactorers, and what thar actually MIGHT will happen, should put press for an international humanitarial action may couse . In many news paper and tv station they have "one" who are positive to the couse. wow dean, that's great! 5 IMPORTANT MINUTES! :)

  • @dean thoughts on what you want to present?
    by Nancy 5/23/2011 7:50:08 PM

  • very excellent ROB,,, it would be nice to turn some people on to find out what the capacity for spent fuel is at those facilities and the rate of generating SFP elements per year...

  • The Nuclear Reactor
    Technology subcommittee will present
    its final report on the Next Generation
    Nuclear Power Reactor and the Fuel
    Cycle subcommittee will update the
    Committee on its efforts. Finally, the
    Committee will be given a presentation
    on the status of Japan’s Fukushima
    Daiichi nuclear power facility.

  • nancy.. I would like to probably make or input a comment about the spent fuel storage/handling crisis in this country ,,, and then probably listen to the rest and raise my hand on the fukushima if I can't sit still in my seat
    by dean 5/23/2011 7:56:32 PM

  • Warsaw is awesome @dean. Finally made it to the old town area, worth the trip. Where are you gonna be presenting in DC @dean?

  • Nuclear energy, which supplied about 20 percent of the nation’s electric
    power in 2010, offers a domestic source of energy with low emissions but
    also presents difficulties—including what to do with nuclear fuel after it
    has been used and removed from commercial power reactors. This
    material, known as spent nuclear fuel, is highly radioactive and considered
    one of the most hazardous substances on earth.1 The current national
    inventory of nearly 65,000 metric tons of commercial spent nuclear fuel is
    stored at 75 sites in 33 states and increases by about 2,000 metric tons
    each year.

  • sounds nice bo.... I wanted to go to work for a year assignement in IAEA to see that part of the country but couldn't be gone that long
    by dean 5/23/2011 8:04:45 PM

  • if I present it will be in WDC at the 6-15-2011 meeting on NGNP, FUEL CYCLE AND FUKUSHIMA BRIEFING
    by dean 5/23/2011 8:05:19 PM

  • @UKVal, I think what would be important to find out is where the unrecyclables, that is the vitrified highly toxic radioactive waste with hundreds of thousands of years half life, end up. As much as I know, only France and the UK possess industrial-grade reprocessing facilities for spent fuel in the EU. Where do the remnants go?

  • @elainekirk sadly too much does! nuclear-news.net
    by UKVal 5/23/2011 8:11:57 PM

  • @elainekirk, I heard they call it the Radioactive Sea
    overthere!
    Yup it was the most radioactive in the world but methinks tepco have snatched the crown with their efforts to pollute the pacific

  • @Peter Melzer true -I'll try - but finding any info is diffiicult here -the excuse being it 'might fall into the hands of terrorists'
    go look the other page that was a very timely statement you just made
