Title: NRC worried about US National Labs “chomping at the bit” to help with Fukushima Radiation analysis – Call lab directors and say “Knock it off”
Source: Enformable

JAPAN’S FUKUSHIMA DAIICHI ET AUDIO FILE
Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Saturday, March 12, 2011MR. SHARON: This is Brian Sharon. Quick question, well, not question, but I’ve gotten a couple of emails here today, from some of the National Labs, and they’re all — there are a couple of them chomping a the bit, you know, saying, “Ghee, can we help? Ghee, can we go calculate this,” with the codes and all that stuff.
I keep telling them, “No, you don’t know the scenario,” but you know, somebody might want to call DOE and tell them to tell their labs to cool it, because the last thing we want is the labs going off, talking to the press, talking about consequences and all sorts of other stuff, because you know, they’re chomping at the bit, to do something, and I’m not sure, Eliot, maybe you’ve got a point of contact up there at DOE?
MR. BRENNER: I’ll send a note to their Press Secretary, asking him, through his chain, to reach out, down to the labs and tell them to back off. If we’ve got other chains, we might as well –
MALE PARTICIPANT: If I could chime in on that? On the Deputy’s call yesterday, I was on with the Chairman, and Pete Lyons was one of the principals at DOE. Lyons may be a good source to contact at DOE.
MR. JOHNSON: This is Mike Johnson. My other thought was, it may be just to cut to the chase, just to pass the same, to call the lab directors and say, “Knock it off,” or whatever messages we want to get to them.
There are a number of ways we can do this.
So, I agree, Brian, we’ve got to do it soon.
MR. McDERMOTT: Okay, we’ll take that action from headquarters.

Look for the Gov. to pass laws against testing anything in labs, possibly even the use of counters and dosimeters !
We can still use the old newspaper test to see if radiation is in the air, they can't outlaw newspaper ! Can they ?
Report Comment
So much for "conspiracy theories." Hundreds of thousands (millions?) are involved in this cover-up and barely a peep. When I called labs about testing they told me that there was no reason to test anything, there was nothing dangerous in California. Thanks everybody.

Does anyone have a link to more than just the two FOIA documents I have been able to obtain: I have Part 1 which covered the discussions between NRC staff, etc. and I also have the emails. There should be about 2500 pages more somewhere? I will read them if I can find them. Thanks. By the way, this is the first time I've been able to sign in in several days.

NP, if it were me I'd try to work with a larger organization to get the FOIA. Seriously, I think there is a need to affiliate one's self with a larger organization on things like this. Please think about it. And it needs to be done VERY PUBLICLY. Don't operate in a vaccuum.

For those of you who, like me, suspect that no 'official' detection measurements will ever be publicly forthcoming, and that we citizens will sooner or later be forced to protect ourselves at the local level by making our own measurements, one of the distributors for SE International's "Inspector" unit just told me that after a year of 20-plus week backlogs, they now have units in stock for 2 week delivery in the U.S.
In the face of probable ongoing and worsening long-term contamination suggested by excellent EneNews reporting, the cost of one of these units seems to my budget a small price to pay to protect oneself and an extended family.
Report Comment
I too called several labs and was told they had backed off testing. They said the EPA had assured them levels were below what would cause any damage to people. I wondered Why if you have the equipment aren't you doing the testing? Now I can see why? If I was in charge of a lab I would have continued testing.

And you see where that got him. I've been poring over the audio transcripts being released, the convos between NRC OpCenter and the commander of USS Kennedy. They were measuring 'gamma shine' from the plume at 100 nautical miles (130 miles) off the coast at 1 Curie per cubic meter. Though it might be as high as 10 Ci/m^3 (danged math first thing in the morning)… and those measurements were taken before unit 3 blew.
1 Curie is 37 terabecquerels per cubic meter. At 130 miles out on its way to Alaska and the US west coast. Just from unit 1.
Will go check and recheck the calcs, but that's a nasty, nasty plume. It got worse. And the NRC was very much aware of it.

Interestingly, it' not always 100% fake. They don't seem to have the technology to fake moving things – like flames and smoke as much as stationary things, like walls. So it's a mix, but as time goes on, they have to cover up more and more damage in order to keep the charade going.

It says in the announcement on the TEPCO livecam page:"After the replacement of camera at 1:05pm on December 3, a horizontal line is seen in the middle of the image.
This is a reflection of the connecting part of 2 transparent camera covers." I
Does anyone else think it's a strange "coincidence" that replacing this camera cover created a line in the middle of the screen -which of course would serve well to the benefit of anyone trying to make some video manipulations in haste..

Hello everyone. I've been reading this site since june-july of last year. I was like most other people I watched the news coverage of 311 like most others, for that first couple of weeks. Life is busy thow, and I continued on with my daily routine, and like alot of others when the msm stoped covering it I "magically"(i chose this word becouse, hell it might well be as well as it worked…) forgot all about it. Then I came across someone on youtube who mentioned fukushima and posted a link to here. I was shocked at what I found and how I was so left in the dark.
One of the things I've always prided myself on, is my ability to look at things from all angles. Everyones informative posts here have giving me much to look at, and none of the angles look good. Its actually quite depressing…guess that's life. After thinking about it and coming up with there wasn't much I could do, I started posting about it on fb. Its amazing how many ppl will like/comment on someone having hotdogs for dinner, when I started to post info about 311(try to stay out of rain and such…) It turns into a "ghost town". Of my ten or so fb posts, think I got like 3 replys. One person actually called me a debby downer… Needless to say after the lack of response from ppl, I was taken aback and very "down"for awhile.
I would like to get into spreading the word about 311, but my skill at getting what I'm thinking/wanting to say into written word is lacking. And I would probably get locked up if I started "shouting it from the roof tops". Was thinking more like some kind of sticker or pamphlet I could go around leaving everywhere, and I mean everywhere. I've seen the one pdf that one member posted. I would like some other takes on a handout/sticker we could cover the planet in to protect it from all this fallout. Please and thank you.

Hey Dustinthewind – I echo your sentiments, I was pretty much oblivious until I followed a link to here a couple of months ago, and I realized after reading the great info on this site we had been told a fraction of the truth about Fukuhsima.
It really makes me so angry, I spend a lot of time outdoors, and I have a young son, and if I had known last spring what I know now I would have kept him and myself indoors for two weeks or so, starting taking some zeolite, planted some hemp and sunflowers in the garden, etc. At least we were already drinking RO water.
But no, the higher powers made a deliberate choice to protect the image of this industry over protecting people's lives. And Obama with his little trip to South America obviously knew. People are right, he is so controlled by the Oligarchy, people need to get past the false left/right paradigm.
Anyway, forget about resignations – these were criminal actions! How many people will die as a result? Jail time should be on the table, and Obama should be investigated for how much he knew and how completely he failed his country. And our leader in Canada, Stephen Harper, should be subjected to the same scrutiny.

This is the same scenario everywhere. People do not want to know painful truths.
The appearance is more important than REALITY.
As long as everything looks good, who cares that people are dying by the millions from cancers of all kinds, and dropping like flies on a closed window.
As long as they don't KNOW the reason, the suffering is better and easier. Denial is not a river in Egypt.
That way, if anyone asks what causes all of this suffering and death, the authorities can blame it on radioactive bananas, cosmic rays or lack of smiling.

Hi Dust…….I post a Daily Nuclear Tidbit on my facebook page and the lack of comments screams volumes, doesn't it? They are mostly links from radchick, enenews, youtube, etc. I think some read or watch them….probly not all the way through, but if just a little bit leaks into their sub-conscious, it leaves that door ajar, and more easily opened by someone or something else. I truly believe the truth WILL win eventually.
In the beginning, I sent emails, letters and even a couple of phone calls to the White House, Congress, Senators, Newspapers, TV op ed folks…Glenn Beck, Rachel Maddow and others. I was blown away about the responses and lack of responses…mostly form letters. Never tried the flyer idea, but it might be worth a try on a local level.

The sad thing is if I would of known how bad it really was ( correction… IS) I would of packed up and headed to the southern hemisphere, money or not. Now the government(in the U.S) has me in between a rock and a hard spot… I know the effects are accumulative(so leaving should of been ASAP). I know I already have this poison in me, and WHEN I see the effects of it in my health I would probably receive the best care here. So what stay here and hope its not ELE, and be able to have access to good hospitals. Leaving even still an option when looking at it this way?
I've always told people my while life not to sweat the small stuff…take it with a grain of salt…go with the flow…be like dust in the wind.

This is a great example of how the NRC should NOT operate.
People need to start contacting their elected representatives, (federal level) in the USA about the problems with the NRC.
I provided this comment to the Enformable site but it is probably a good idea for everyone…Just an idea but maybe you could start to compile items like this from the documents released as “evidence” people could use to provide to their elected representatives. Not that you need more work to do but you seem like the perfect group to create instead of a “form letter” for people to send a “form body of evidence” compiled from the NRC’s own documents.

Hi Philipupnorth,
Yes, the West Coast of the U.S. and Canada, Hawaii, and probably Alaska are very contaminated.
Still, I think it's important to consider and digest what people like Stockrr have said, and what's posted here, lest denial set in for anyone:
http://globalcooperative.wordpress.com/2011/05/18/radiation-map-analysis-europe-australasia/
I keep posting this because I followed the NILU reporting and analysis from early on. What appeared in the private reports (see link above) may be one of the only accurate sources of info. on the true extent of the plumes, early on.

Western Slope of US. I had a biologist friend who called his regular, local lab to get tap water tested after the accident. They told him they wouldn't test it. They had him go on to call the local water quality authorities. They put him through a string of connections, took his full profile, made him wait, and after 30 minutes on the phone, told him not to pursue his inquiry. Everything was okay.
I walked around my house on one of those fateful days, smelled something bad in the air – like a machine explosion, and came inside to find a surface burn across my face. It lasted 3 days. Got 3 bloody nose episodes. I have pics from my garden of squash leaves that grew inside out – the bottom of the leaf on top, the top underneath. Other plants did strange things, and my sunflowers had double blooms – back to back.
This is ongoing. We are in the same situation on the west coast of North America as greater Japan. And it's coming to the coastline via the ocean. Who is protecting us? (Drones? blink) Obama? Hillary? NRC, IAEA? Who is protecting Japan? Who is protecting the children and animals and birds – the innocent?

I don't have any kids, deep inside ive always felt that it wasn't right for me to bring a new life into this messed up world, especially when there are so many to adopt.
I've always had this feeling I was put here to do something more important, just could never put my finger on what it was. Seeing stuff like this makes me think I should say the hell with it all, and go do something very stupid(in hind sight could be genius if it worked) and public to get the worlds attention. At this point it looks like that might be what it takes. I swear ppl are so caught up in there lil personal bubble of make belive, it makes me sick…

Dustinthewind,
You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Don't let anyone make you think otherwise! Every person is a unique and wonderful creation, and every life is of inestimable value.

Good to have names. If this was like "Watergate" they would all be in jail! US DOE or other government employees have no extra "rights" compared to the rest of us taxpayers. If this kind of secretive activities cause illness/disease in a large population in the USA–its manslaughter. Stupid people talking out of ignorance–who gave them this "mandate" to coverup? If named people in above discussions can be made responsible for injuries because of their actions — will help all of us in the future. Just because someone has a government paycheck–they are not "anointed"..Everyone in the above discussion and those sending them the coverup guidance could be criminals. Would like to see their "job descriptions"..think they may have broken a few laws. And if it was to make the current administration look "good"…..

Can't cover things up anymore. Only can be delayed it a bit, and thats all.

SinceNRC knew then the EPA knew. Anyone know w/e happen with them raising safe radiation levels? Already in place I guess? Anyone point me in a good direction?

Yes, see here:

DoE set guidelines for interpreting the EPA's PAG's (Protective Action Guidelines). Because the DoE interprets much higher levels of radiation exposure as being "safe", the PAG's never get implemented. In other words, the DoE guidelines, if used, trump the PAG's. THAT is why NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE to protect us. Oh, and that's aside from the secret trade deal Ms. Clinton supposedly did with Japan just after 3/11. Wish we could nail that one down, too!

That's two separate documents by the way. If you can read through the verbiage and wrap your mind around what the DoE guidelines are saying, everything becomes crystal clear.
