New Hunters Point Report Released (Report 3)

Published October 18, 2018

While it has been known for some time that the Navy’s contractor at Hunters Point had falsified radiation measurements there, a new report reveals that the cleanup levels themselves were also erroneous. They are grossly outdated, violate the Superfund law, and are far, far less protective than promised. Therefore both the measurements and the standards against which they were checked were wrong, in ways that seriously undercut public safety.

Report 3: Hunters Point Shipyard Cleanup Used Outdated and Grossly Non-Protective Cleanup Standards

"The cost of a new #nuclear power station is around $168 per #megawatt hour according to Lazard. An efficient #gas plant costs about a third as much, and #solar and #wind about one-fifth as much."
