The only relevant protection from nuclear catastrophe is prevention.

Real civil defense means shutting these dangerous reactors down, permanently.

The people living near dangerous Fukushima-style reactors in the United States will make their case public before a panel of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission for closing the GE Mark I and Mark II boiling water reactors.

You are invited to join in a live webcast at http://video.nrc.gov/  and telephone conference at 1 PM Eastern Time September 30, 2013 by calling in 1-866-741-7099 (PIN 3340595#).  The public meeting is between Beyond Nuclear and joint petitioners and the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s Petition Review (NRC) regarding the March 21, 2013 emergency enforcement petition which calls for the revocation of the operating licenses of all General Electric Mark I and Mark II boiling water reactors in the United States. This is an opportunity to learn more about these aging and dangerous reactors and how you can get involved in shutting them down.

The joint petitioners are presenting additional information in support of their call for the emergency closure of all GE boiling water reactors that continue to operate with unreliable containment structures identical to the Fukushima Daiichi units that catastrophically failed during multiple severe accidents in March 2011.

The petitioners charge that current post-Fukushima NRC actions to address dangerously vulnerable US reactors are inadequate and present an undue risk to public health, safety and the environment.
