Re: Petitions made to NRC to take actions
John,
1. It is a serious issue, they want to keep it
quite and it is appropriate for the moment.
2. Material explains that fact.
3. Commercial airliners should NOT fly above or
in close vicinity of the plants in any case
(period)
Containment or NO Containment, Withstand or NOT
Withstand, it is just too dangerous and too
expensive for the plant as a whole and it is all
for conveniences of the airlines, pilots and
traffic controllers?
Damn, if amateur pilot-terrorist can fly plane
around the buildings but professional airline
pilot CAN NOT DO?
PLANE is NOT a TRAIN and it can fly around!
4. These areas used to be restricted air space
before ....sometime in 80's. (Work of the airline
industry's lobby?)
What was the Nuclear Industry's lobby doing,
then?
Thinking of.....a statistical probability of the
crash or attack.
How about having a common sense?
5. I think, airplanes also should not fly above
the congested residential areas, tens or hundreds
tons of the jet fuel above thousands of people IS
an accident waiting to happen.
(see: Airliner bounded for the Dominican Republic
recent crash in Queens, NY or a Cargo JUMBO Jet
winter-related crash in Siberia a couple of years
ago, then the whole residential neighborhood was
burned down and almost thousand people burned TO
DEAD, many were still asleep).
6. Suddenly, our "green enemy" may become our
best friend for the day, in solving the SF
problem. :-)
7. Now we'yal know where went NORM. :-)
8. SF MUST start moving "soon" to the west.
Emil.

It is interesting to note
that NRC is not making the petitions public

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
The UNPLUG Salem Campaign, the National
Whistleblower Center and
Mr. Randy Robarge Riverkeeper, Inc., et al.;
Receipt of Requests for
Action Under 10 CFR 2.206
Notice is hereby given that by the following
three petitions, the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) was requested
to take immediate
corrective actions to protect the public against
the possibility of
terrorists seizing control of a large commercial
jetliner and crashing
into a nuclear power plant in the United States.
1. From Mr. Norm Cohen, on behalf of the
UNPLUG Salem Campaign,
dated September 17, 2001.
2. From Mr. Michael D. Kohn, on behalf of the
National
Whistleblower Center and Randy Robarge, dated
October 24, 2001.
3. From Messrs. Alex Matthiessen, and Karl
Coplan, on behalf of the
Riverkeeper, Inc., et al, dated November 8, 2001.
The petitioners requested that the NRC staff
take certain specified
compensatory measures, to protect the public and
environment from the
catastrophic impact of a terrorist attack on a
nuclear power plant or a
spent fuel pool.
These requests are being treated pursuant to
10 CFR 2.206 of the
Commission's regulations. These requests have
been referred to the
Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation. As provided by
Section 2.206, appropriate action will be taken
on these petitions
within a reasonable time.
Since the subject of these petitions involves
safeguards matters,
the NRC has decided not to make the petitions
public or publicly discuss the
petitions to avoid disclosure of potentially
sensitive security
information.
