NC WARN SUPPORTS <br />NUKE WASTE STORAGE <br />NEAR JORDAN LAKE! <br />REACTOR SITE <br />STORAGE: <br />SAFER, SMARTER, <br />CHEAPER THAN A DUMP <br />The NC Authority and most of the <br />media have acted as if there is no <br />alternative to waste burial, reciting <br />the familiar line, "Well, it has to go <br />somewhere ". <br />For years, Physicians for Social Responsibility/ <br />Triangle Chapter and NC WARN have pressed the <br />state'to consider an alternative to the 7 -state dump <br />planned for central North Carolina. These groups <br />and many scientists call for all "low- level" nuclear <br />wastes (LLRW) to be stored in above- ground, moni- <br />tored vaults at nuclear power plants. <br />In 1993 UNC -CH's Dr. Douglas Crawford - <br />Brown, an expert on risk analysis and health effects <br />from radiation, told the NC Legislature: "The state <br />should examine the economic and political feasi- <br />bility of tying disposal of LLRW to the eventual <br />fate of nuclear power facilities producing the <br />waste ... and the feasibility of constructing suitable <br />on -site facilities." His advice has been ignored. <br />THIS ARTICLE APPEARED IN AN <br />UNDATED NC WARN DOCUMENT! <br />THE ARTICLE III FOUNDATION <br />(919) 774 -1904 <br />
