Tour Stop in Olkiluoto/Rauma
Olkiluoto is the location of one of two nuclear power plants in Finland. It is situated by the Western coast of Finland, some 250 kilometers northwest of Helsinki. On the site of the NPP also a final disposal site for low and medium level radioactive waste is located. The Finnish final repository for high level radioactive waste is proposed to be realized at this location, too.[1]
Olkiluoto is an island only separated by a narrow sound from the mainland, connected by a bridge.[2] Olkiluoto is owned by the nuclear industry. It is part of the municipalty of Eurajoki, but the next (and biggest) city is Rauma, located only some 25 kilometers south of the nuclear power plant[2].
As we want to make plain to the Finnish government and the international nuclear industry that they have to expect strong resistance against their plans to extend the nuclear developments, the Baltic Sea Info Tour finished in Finland. Thus we want to show our solidarity and support of the local anti-nuclear movements.
The Baltic Sea Info Tour stopped from August 14-16 in Olkiluoto/Rauma. We provided a public information event, a public street action and a regional network gathering here.
