TRICASTIN, PART 2


No alarmism, but...

91 workers of Tricastin power plant contaminated with cobalt 58 radioactive dust.

The second "little" problem in two weeks.
This follows another "little unforeseen", one week ago, with the discovery of a broken pipe in a nuclear solid fuel factory in Romans sur Isère, south of France.
Pipe that accidentally is UNDER the ground and is broken from years, leaking uranium free to waste nature and contaminate ground water.
But we can be untroubled, governement always says "no risks", "everything's under control", "no real dangers".

Exactly the same kind of declarations of URSS governement in 1986, concerning Chernobyl, showing you the fact that ALSO IF THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A RISK, YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN.

mi correggo. in realtà decade come 'electron capture', quindi nonostante sia molto instabile emette "solo" radiazioni X, non il massimo della salute ma c'è di peggio (molto peggio).
