************************************************************ * Nuke News č.14 – informace z oblasti antiatomu * ************************************************************ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0. Úvod ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Vítáme Vás u 14.vydání Nuke News – vícejazyčného newsletteru, vydávaného Nuclear Heritage Network. S tímto číslem slavíme také třetí narozeniny tohoto newsletteru, který jsme začali vydávat v rámci mezinárodního projektu 6.června 2011, tři měsíce po sérii explozí v japonské jaderné elektrárně Fukušima. V tomto čísle Vás budeme informovat o solidární kampani pro naše ruské přátele, kteří jsou konfrontováni se sledováním státem, který je označil za „zahraniční agenty“. O dvou aktuálních případech Vám přinášíme informace v tomto newsletteru. Pomáhejte prosím se šířením těchto informací, abychom tak co nejvíce podpořili aktivisty v Rusku. Chtěli bychom Vás také pozvat na velký mezinárodní letní anti-atomový kemp, který se bude konat v srpnu na severu Německa – více informací najdete níže. V tomto čísle se také dozvíte novinky o jaderných elektrárnách a problematice vyhořelého jaderného paliva především z východní Evropy a Velké Británie. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Obsah aktuálního vydání NukeNews #14 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0.

Slovensko: Další zdržení dostavby JE Mochovce ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Slovenský premiér Robert Fico informoval v rámci tzv. Evropského jaderného fóra, že práce spojené s dokončením stavby třetího a čtvrtého bloku jaderné elektrárny Temelín budou mít zpoždění. Podle jeho prohlášení nebude možné splnit plánovaný termín dostavby třetího bloku, který měl být již v letošním roce. Nově se tak počítá s tím, že 3.blok jaderné elektrárny bude uveden do provozu na konci roku 2016 nebo na začátku roku 2017. Na začátku stavebních prací se přitom počítalo se zprovozněním 3.bloku v roce 2012 a 4.bloku v roce 2013. Projekt dostavby slovenské elektrárny se potýká také s finančními problémy, protože plánované náklady stavby se zvýšily z původních 2,8 miliard Euro na stávajících 3,8 miliard.

Nový uranový důl ve střední Evropě? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Čeští daňoví poplatníci sice stále ještě musí – s podporou evropských dotací z Bruselu – nadále platit desítky miliard korun na sanaci bývalých uranových dolů a přepracoven uranu, které se v zemi v minulosti provozovaly, nyní se však objevují vážné návrhy na nový projekt těžby uranu v ČR. Český premiér Sobotka a ministr průmyslu a obchodu Mládek zveřejnili své plány na otevření ložisek s cca. 3.100 tunami uranu v Brzkově a Horní Věžnici v blízkosti Polné u Jihlavy pro udržení dalšího provozu českého uranového důlního průmyslu. Další informace najdete na: http://www.nuclear-heritage.net/index.php/New_uranium_mine_in_central_Europe%3F ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Česká republika: Nová továrna na výrobu jaderného paliva v Bystřici nad Pernštejnem? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ústav jaderného paliva v Praze (ÚJP Praha a.s.) plánuje postavit závod na výrobu jaderného paliva pro reaktory VVER a pro slévání uranových slitin v Bystřici nad Pernštějnem. Závod má mít kapacitu 450 tun zpracovaného uranu uraničitého ročně (800 palivových kazet). Management institutu ÚJP Praha zatím neupřesnil, ke kterým zákazníkům by bystřický závod měl vyrobené palivové soubory zavážet. Podle investora, firma ÚJP Invest, s.r.o. byl proces EIA k projektu (posouzení vlivů stavby na životní prostředí) ukončen již v prosinci 2013. http://www.nuclear-heritage.net/index.php/Will_there_be_a_nuclear_fuel_plant_in_Byst%C5%99ice_nad_Pern%C5%A1tejnem%3F ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Akt pomsty vůči úspěšné kampani proti jaderné elektrárně u Baltského moře – ekologická organizace prohlášena za „zahraničního agenta“ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 16.června 2014 dostala ruská ekologická organizace Ecodefense zprávu od ministerstva spravedlnosti, která označuje toto sdružení za „zahraničního agenta“. Toto rozhodnutí ministerstvo učinilo na základě úspěšné kampaně ekologické organizace proti jaderné elektrárně u Baltského moře poblíž Kaliningradu. V roce 2013 se práce na stavbě elektrárny zastavily – jejich pokračování je po intenzivní kampani proti této jaderné elektrárně velmi nejisté. Prohlášení organizace „zahraničním agentem“ je prakticky rovno jeho zrušení. Sdružení Ecodefense je toho názoru, že se jedná o akt pomsty vzhledem k úspěšnosti jeho aktivit proti baltské jaderné elektrárně. Při kontrole v organizaci Ecodefence, kterou zde provedly ruské úřady na jaře loňského roku, se nenalezly žádné důvody pro to, aby bylo sdružení označeno za „zahraničního agenta“. Také při následné kontrole na začátku letošního roku došly úřady k podobnému výsledku, ale očividně musely na tlak z Moskvy výsledky své kontroly zrevidovat a v závěrech své kontrolní zprávy uvést, že organizace je zahraničním agentem. Podle definice ze zákona jsou zapsané ruské nevládní organizace zahraničním agentem tehdy, když provádí své politické aktivity s podporou ze zahraničí. Na základě této definice by však mohly být také mnohé další ruské organizace prohlášeny zahraničními agenty. Výše zmíněný zákon kritizovali ochránci lidských práv již po jeho přijetí v roce 2012. Jako jedna z 11 nevládních organizací podala Ecodefense na začátku roku 2013 žalobu k Evropskému soudnímu dvoru pro lidská práva.

Prosím, starejte se o domov tohoto medvídka– demonstrace v Londýně ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Uran z Peru pro provoz nových jaderných elektráren ve Velké Británii? Zatímco jsou práce na výrobě dalšího filmu o slavném medvídku Paddington Baer v plném proudu, stala se 9.ledna 2014 slavná socha tohoto medvídka v Londýně centrem zájmu ekologických aktivistů. Při své akci poukazovali na nebezpečí, které hrozí kvůli těžbě uranu v Peru, domovském státě předlohy medvídka Paddingtona.

Demonstrace: osvoboďte sellafieldské srny ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 17.ledna 2014 protestovali obyvatelé, aktivisté pro ochranu zvířat a antiatomoví aktivisté společně proti odstřelu srnek, odchycených v nových vojenských zónách kolem jaderné elektrárny Sellafield.

UK: Lillyhall Landfill Given the Go Ahead to Dump ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Despite Demonstrations and hundreds of letters of opposition Lillyhall Landfill was given the go ahead on February 26th to dump High Volumes of so called Very Low Level wastes. The media has kept this low key with little local reporting and no national reporting. https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/02/26/radioactive-waste-dump-is-born-without-fanfare-or-fuss-the-banality-of-evil/ https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/03/07/criminal-activity-of-landfill-operators-at-lillyhall/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. UK: Vigil at Heysham Nuclear Power Station ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Radiation Free Lakeland joined with other groups in a Vigil on 8th March for Fukushima to remember the victims of the ongoing disaster and call for a halt to nuclear at Heysham and elsewhere. Organiser Mo Kelly from Lancaster graphically illustrated how high a 5 metre storm surge would be – higher that the military style fences around the plant! https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/03/09/heysham-fukushima-vigil/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. UK: Colourful Demonstration Outside the Committee on Radioactive Waste Management meeting in Workington ---------------------------------------------------------------------- International Authority on Nuclear Safety says "Its always the technology that lets us down". Quite – thats what we think about the plan to use previously unused and scientifically impossible to predict "engineered barriers" 1000 metres underground with geology as the last line of defence when the barriers inevitably deteriorate. The government is keen to show that "steady progress is being made in the implementation of geological disposal working within the underpinning principles of voluntarism and partnership with local communities". WE SAID NO – AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/05/01/its-always-the-technology-that-lets-us-down-says-international-authority-on-nuclear-safety/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 10. UK: Demonstration - Beacon of Nuclear Truth? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On May 30th, 2014 members of Radiation Free Lakeland and Save the Sellafield Deer went along to set up their own exhibition outside the new propaganda vehicle for Sellafield. Around 250 people stopped to chat about the real Sellafield Story, to take leaflets and to look at our exhibition illustrating the vicious nuclear cycle from uranium mining to geological dumping. https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/05/31/the-beacon-protest-yesterday/ http://www.theecologist.org/reviews/2434605/beacon_of_nuclear_truth.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Europe at Risk – Petition to Shut Dungeness B Now ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The people of Europe assume that safety limits are there to keep people safe. Not so in the case of Dungeness B nuclear plant (UK) which is now run by Électricité de France. Graphite bricks in the Dungeness B reactor are cracking and starting to lose weight due to bombardment of radiation. The graphite is about to breach safety levels and the Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) would have had to prosecute or even shut down the plant. But instead, the regulators are considering a request from EDF energy, to simply airbrush away the safety limits. https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2014/06/12/europe-at-risk-shut-dungeness-b-now/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 12. Slovenia: Owner of Krsko NPP with plans for 2nd reactor, though no political + public decision has been made yet ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Regardles of the fact, that there has been no political and public decision, whether we as a country want to have another nuclear reactor, and the fact, that we don't have a coherent and comprehensive energy strategy that would include or exclude a new power reactor (new energy concept/strategy will be produced in the optimal scenario in no less than 2 years), the owner of the Krsko NPP is planning their project for the second nuclear reactor in Krsko. They have already spent more than 10 million EUR on various researches and studies for the second reactor, although they don't know if they will implement the project or not. Currently there are too many obstacles (political - preliminary elections in July 2014, financial - rising costs of the nuclear projects worldwide, ...) for the implementation, but they hold their project on stand-by, ready to start with it when the time will be right. For that reason their priority now is to prolong the life time of Krsko NPP for 20 years (from 2023 to 2043). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 13. 2015 Cancer Congress - An aspect of stopping nuclear power ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Life through knowledge" is the slogan of the Bavarian organization "Krebsgesellschaft" (cancer society). Science deals with quanta-healing and the role of different cells in the brain: is the healing of cancer left behind or is it suppressed by big profit interests? - The later option came back to my mind when I spoke to an Italian friend who heard a story about a molecule with healing effects and this was later completely decomposed in a way with no alternative but keeping the experimental procedures going - a live and let die mentality. In addition to this point comes the contract between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the World Health Organisation (WHO) which ties the one side leaving us uninformed if it doesn't fit into a world of fossil energy.

Germany: Invitation for joint autumn campaign on nuclear waste misery ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Despite the general criticism of the Nuclear Waste Commission, many people talk with and about the Commission and not about the nuclear waste as such. We want to change that! The joint preparation of the Nuclear Waste Inventory in the past year has created a technically substantiated and widely acclaimed framework for the nuclear waste discussion. We propose as the next step to actively trigger ourselves the public discussion with a joint campaign in autumn 2014 and invite to a 1st nationwide campaign meeting on Saturday, July 19, 11 AM in Göttingen at DGB, Weendener Landstr. 6. read the complete article: http://www.nuclear-heritage.net/index.php/Germany:_Invitation_for_joint_autumn_campaign_on_nuclear_waste_misery ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 15. Russian human rights activists under pressure ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Friends of us, human rights activists from Murmansk, Russia, who are also involved to the Nuclear Heritage Network, joined actions, projects and contributed practically to our international anti-nuclear work, are currently faced to pressure by authorities. Their organization "Humanistic Youth Movement" (GDM) is accused to act as "foreign agent" as they receive funding from abroad and their activities are considered "political" by the prosecutor. This status would cause the closure of the organization as it is practically impossible to continue work with that label. The case was forced by the Russian secret service FSB, although in an earlier inspection by the Ministry of Justice the final reports stated there was no indication to consider GDM a "foreign agent". On July 8, 2014 they will have the public hearing in the Murmansk District Court. In Germany, a solidarity campaign has been started to spread the word about the case, and also to support other concerned NGOs in Russia like Ecodefense which was declared a "foreign agent" in the middle of June. We also want to collect money to support the legal costs like lawyers, court costs and fines that these NGOs are posed to. Please support our Russian friends with solidarity statements, articles or financial contributions. bank account: Spenden & Aktionen purpose: "Soli Russland" IBAN: DE29 5139 0000 0092 8818 06 BIC: VBMHDE5FXXX bank: Volksbank Mittelhessen Learn more: http://www.nuclear-heritage.net/index.php/Russian_human_rights_activists_under_pressure Call-out for solidarity (German): http://russlandantirep.blogsport.de/aufruf/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 16. Solidarity with the persecuted groups in Russia ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Two solidarity campaigns have been started to support NGOs affected by the latest persecution under the "foreign agent" law in Russia. In Germany a campaign informs about the repression and political background, collects donations for the affected groups, spreads the word about concrete cases and activates groups to express their solidarity. Currently they focus on the persecution of "Humanistic Youth Movement" (GDM) and the already as "foreign agent" declared "Ecodefense. Additionally an international solidarity campaign has been initiated by anti-nuclear activists demanding Ecodefense's acquittal of the "foreign agent" stigmatization in a multi-lingual appeal. Since some time progressive Russian groups and activists are under oppression by the state's authorities. With the "foreign agent" and "extremism" laws instruments have been created to suppress and eliminate organizations and movements being critical to the state, but also any others bothering the political powers. In this context legal organizations de facto get prohibited if they are classified "foreign agents", because under these circumstances the continuation of work is almost impossible. With vague accusations of extremism even individuals who made critical statements were threatened with perennial imprisonment and virtually vanished into thin air. Environmental and human rights groups as well as other progressive organizations shall be stigmatized spies and discredited publicly.

Nuclear Heritage Network related anti-nuclear summer camps ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You are invited to join this year's Nuclear Heritage Network related anti-nuclear camps in August. First, the annual Nuclear Heritage Network Gathering will take place from August 4-8 near Kiel in northern Germany. It's aim is to develop and strengthen the international network of anti-nuclear activists and the tools to support activists against atomic power. In the same place afterwards the big anti-nuclear summer camp will take place from August 9-16 inviting people of any age, families, activists and organizer to offer and participate in workshops, lectures and actions. Main action days will be August 10 and 14. Eventually, we will have a specific NukeNews Mini Camp near Kaplice in Czech Republic from August 25-30 where we will discuss the NukeNews newsletter system, challenges we had with some language versions and perspectives to extend the languages and topics we cover.

About NukeNews ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NukeNews is a multilingual newsletter of the Nuclear Heritage Network to reflect the activities, topics and struggles of anti-nuclear activists. The articles are written and translated by activists, additionally to their usual anti-nuclear activities. No- one is paid for that work, as we want to provide resources like this information system to the anti-nuclear struggle as independent as possible. Your contributions to the next issue of the NukeNews are welcome. Send them via email to "news AT NukeNews.nuclear-heritage.net". It should be brief information in English of not more than one paragraph, including a concise headline and an optional link to a webpage providing more information. Deadline for the 15th issue of the NukeNews will be 14th of September, 2014. Spread the word and learn more about the NukeNews: http://NukeNews.Nuclear-Heritage.NET
