WIPP Radioactive Release Part 2

Saturday, 2 May 2015 - 10:00am to 10:30am

This week on the Radioactive Show we return to hear the second half of an interview with Don Hancock (Southwest Research and Information Centre, New Mexico). He speaks about the ongoing dangers from a radioactive release at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in the US, and the problems faced trying to isolate nuclear wastes.


Next, Anica Niepraschk (Friends of the Earth’s Anti-nuclear and Clean Energy Collective) brings us up to date on the Federal Government’s push for a remote national nuclear waste dump in Australia as a nomination period is just about to come to the end.
