Unit 4 fuel rod removal on General thread November 6:
http://enenews.com/forum-general-nuclear-issues-discussion-thread-2/comment-page-6#comments
SP: Longtime observers of the webcam views remember the frequent massive fires of Units 3 and 4 in the winter of 2011-2012. There were Fuku1live blackouts of camera coverage for thousands of hours and many hours were trimmed by Tepco to a few seconds.
The segments posted to Youtube have a 2-3 hour time lag and when the regular open feeds looked really bad with smoke and nuclear China Syndrome steam the video feeds would stop and edited clips or no clips were released.
The spring of 2012 was notable for much intestinal and sinus infections among humans downwind of Fukushima, thousands of miles away. Most naked apes chalked their illnesses up to the typical flu bug.
Deniability of nuclear fallout causing illnesses has always been a strong defense when invisible poisons are suspected and even older bomb testing fallout can be used as a scapegoat. Very believable to most humans who don't want to consider their family health is in serious jeopardy.
Avoiding public panic supersedes public warnings by the authorities. It has been nearly 50 years since the US government issued any type of fallout warnings to America. Which coincides with the growth of the American nuclear power industry and their vast political donation largesse to public officials.

"Heinz Smitai, a nuclear physicist, Greenpeace campaigner and participant in the radiation monitoring mission, told foreign journalists at an October 30 press conference in Tokyo that radiation hot spots exist as far as 60 kilometres from the site of the disaster.
For instance, one street in front of a hospital in Fukushima City "is quite contaminated", Smitai said, measuring 1.1 microsieverts of radiation per hour. Although this was one of the highest readings, Greenpeace found 70 other places in the city where the amount of radiation recorded exceeded the Ministry of Environment's long-term target of 0.23 microsieverts per hour."

Mock test to retrieve radioactive waste starts
Nov. 17
Japanese researchers began the first full-scale simulation to develop a technology to remove high-level radioactive waste from nuclear power plants after it has been stored deep underground.
The test, which is aimed to push forward the selection of storage sites, began at a research institute in Chiba prefecture near Tokyo. The project is supported by the Japanese government.
The government plans to dispose of high-level radioactive waste by burying it deep underground.
Officials have been trying to find suitable storage sites for this plan.
Experts point out that it may become necessary to retrieve highly radioactive nuclear waste after it is stored underground in the event that new safety concerns arise, or if better disposal technologies are developed in the future.
The test uses mock waste that does not contain radioactive substances. It is buried 4 meters under a floor in a tunnel built inside the research site. It is covered with clay for protection…
Report comment
Researchers will use 6 cameras to remotely conduct the test because at an actual storage site, workers would be exposed to high-levels of radiation.
They plan to use a hose to spray salt water to break up the clay around the nuclear waste and vacuum the waste with another hose.
The aim is to ease the safety concerns among the public so that the government can move forward with the selection of storage sites.
Other plans include storing nuclear waste inside a capsule and retrieving it with protective clay.
Experts will decide which plan is the best and most practical.
Hidekazu Asano is with the Radioactive Waste Management Funding and Research Center that is conducting the test.
He says that there are many arguments over how to handle nuclear waste, but he wants the public to feel safe by proving that nuclear waste can be retrieved with the technology now available.

LANL officials downplayed waste’s dangers even after WIPP leak via Santa Fe New Mexican
For Los Alamos National Security LLC, the private consortium that operates the lab, the stakes were high. Meeting the deadline would help it secure an extension of its $2.2 billion annual contract from the U.S. Department of Energy.
But the following summer, workers packaging the waste came across a batch that was extraordinarily acidic, making it unsafe for shipping. The lab’s guidelines called for work to shut down while the batch underwent a rigid set of reviews to determine how to treat it, a time-consuming process that jeopardized the lab’s goal of meeting the deadline.
Instead, the lab and its various contractors took shortcuts in treating the acidic nuclear waste, adding neutralizer and a wheat-based organic kitty litter to absorb excess liquid. The combination turned the waste into a potential bomb that one lab chemist later characterized as akin to plastic explosives, according to a six-month investigation by The New Mexican.
The lab then shipped a 55-gallon drum of the volatile material 330 miles to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, the nation’s only underground repository for nuclear waste, southeast of Carlsbad. Documents accompanying the drum, which were supposed to include a detailed description of its contents, were deeply flawed. They made no mention of the acidity or the neutralizer, and they mischaracterized …
Report comment
… the kitty litter as a clay-based material — not the more combustible organic variety that most chemists would have recognized as hazardous if mixed with waste laden with nitrate salts, according to interviews and a review of thousands of pages of documents and internal emails obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.
On Feb. 14, with the campaign to clear the waste from Los Alamos more than 90 percent complete, the drum’s lid cracked open. Radiation leaked into the air. Temperatures in the underground chamber soared to 1,600 degrees, threatening dozens of nearby drums. At least 20 workers were contaminated with what federal officials have described as low levels of radiation — though one worker has filed a lawsuit saying his health has drastically deteriorated due to radiation exposure…
