I am testifying in opposition to SB 360. In 2017 we gave testimony in opposition to SB 990, an early version of Senator Boquist’s reoccurring legislation. What is striking is how relevant this attached testimony still is four years later. (Attachment 1) I also attach a recent Deutsche Welle article that shows how nuclear power worsens the climate crisis, (Attachment 2) along with an Executive Summary of a RethinkX study showing how inaccurate cost estimates for conventional energy generating facilities, including nuclear, are being turned into overpriced stranded assets by the rapidly decreasing costs of solar, wind and battery storage. (Attachment 3) In its testimony, NuScale/Fluor, has given all the bells and whistles of its modular reactor design. Yet these reactor modules will produce the same kind of high level radioactive waste temporarily stored outdoors at the Trojan Nuclear Plant site, in Rainier, Oregon, at a storage facility licensed in 1999, and recently given a license extension to March 31, 2059. When will this waste be taken away, no one knows? Nuclear radiation is not restricted to boundaries of cities or counties. Even with the public relations of NuScale/Fluor representatives, the promises of safety and the so called imperviousness to a multitude of disasters – high level nuclear waste will reside at each NuScale reactor facility with the need for transport and permanent disposal.

  • The Fukushima Nuclear Accident and Crisis Management
    e Fukushima Nuclearand Crisis Accident Management e Fukushima The Fukushima Nuclear Accident and Crisis Management — Lessons for Japan-U.S. Alliance Cooperation — — Lessons for Japan-U.S. Alliance Cooperation — — Lessons for Japan-U.S. September, 2012 e Sasakawa Peace Foundation Foreword This report is the culmination of a research project titled ”Assessment: Japan-US Response to the Fukushima Crisis,” which the Sasakawa Peace Foundation launched in July 2011. The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that resulted from the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, involved the dispersion and spread of radioactive materials, and thus from both the political and economic perspectives, the accident became not only an issue for Japan itself but also an issue requiring international crisis management. Because nuclear plants can become the target of nuclear terrorism, problems related to such facilities are directly connected to security issues. However, the policymaking of the Japanese government and Japan-US coordination in response to the Fukushima crisis was not implemented smoothly. This research project was premised upon the belief that it is extremely important for the future of the Japan-US relationship to draw lessons from the recent crisis and use that to deepen bilateral cooperation. The objective of this project was thus to review and analyze the lessons that can be drawn from US and Japanese responses to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, and on the basis of these assessments, to contribute to enhancing the Japan-US alliance’s nuclear crisis management capabilities, including its ability to respond to nuclear terrorism.

  • After Years of Stagnation, Nuclear Power Is On
    5 Vaunted hopes Climate Change and the Unlikely Nuclear Renaissance joshua William Busby ft er years oF s TaGNaTioN, Nucle ar P oWer is oN The atable again. Although the sector suffered a serious blow in the wake of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear meltdown that occurred in Japan in early 2011, a renewed global interest in nuclear power persists, driven in part by climate concerns and worries about soaring energy demand. As one of the few relatively carbon-free sources of energy, nuclear power is being reconsid- ered, even by some in the environmental community, as a possible option to combat climate change. As engineers and analysts have projected the poten- tial contribution of nuclear power to limiting global greenhouse gas emis- sions, they have been confronted by the limits in efficiency that wind, water, and solar power can provide to prevent greenhouse gas emissions from rising above twice pre-industrial levels. What would constitute a nuclear power renaissance? In 1979, at the peak of the nuclear power sector’s growth, 233 power reactors were simultaneously under construction. By 1987, that number had fallen to 120. As of February 2012, 435 nuclear reactors were operable globally, capable of producing roughly 372 gigawatts (GW) of electricity (WNA 2012). Some analysts suggest that, with the average age of current nuclear plants at twenty-four years, more than 170 reactors would need to be built just to maintain the current number in 2009 1 Copyright © 2013.

FANC later posted a statement on its website announcing that thousands “flaw indications” had been found during investigations in the Doel 3 and Tihange 2 nuclear reactor pressure vessels. The 'flaw indications' are in reality microscopic cracks.

  • Buildup of Nuclear Armament Capability and the Post-War Statehood of Japan
    Buildup of Nuclear Armament Capability and the Post-War Statehood of Japan : Fukushima and the Genealogy of Nuclear Bombs and Power Plants Muto, Ichiyo In the battered Fukushima Daiichi nuclear structures, which continue to spew out radiation incessantly, I cannot but identify the presence and activity of a collective human will. Here, I am not using a metaphor. Those living ruins are, in fact, the incarnation of the will of those humans who have built and managed the nuclear regime. The ruins are there only as a material consequence of their actions, which have taken place over decades. During the reign of this nuclear regime, its will was masked by promises of clean energy and a bright future. We were constantly told by the regime and its loyal media that comfort, convenience, prosperity and mass consumption would all be impossible without nuclear power, and we—the majority of society—swallowed this idea whole. Now, however, the true nature of the regime has been revealed for what it is: a heinous beast, so to speak, who poisons whatever it touches and continues its endless destruction of life—and has proven itself to be a near-immortal species that resists with all its might being slain and put to rest. I now realize that before the Fukushima catastrophe, I had only a poor and limited imagination about nuclear power’s actual degree of heinousness. If not as a specialized anti-nuke activist, I, too, was working from the 1970s on the nuclear issue by identifying with the communities who were resisting the construction of nuclear plants.
