Official Report: List of Sites, Locations, Facilities, and Activities Declared to the International Atomic Energy Agency

I am copy and pasting this info because it's disappearing fast from the Internet. I don't know that any U.S. attorney is going to bother a "mentally ill" woman with a cease and desist letter...you know, I'm so impulsive and ill, how can you blame me for putting this online? At any rate, this is it, letter for letter, but I'm having to copy and paste bit by bit. Shoot. Having problems because it's Adobe and has graphs. I may post my own link, if possible. I don't know if I know how to do this. But first I'm going to select the information about Richland, Washington and paste that and then I'll try to post the whole link. Oh! Huh. It looks like the stuff about Hanford, or Richland, Washington, IS marked, "highly confidential safeguards sensitive". Mentally ill woman is trying to figure out what this means:

jbell on PROD1PC69 with HEARING
(1)

To the Congress of the United States:
I transmit herewith a list of the sites, locations, facilities, and activities
in the United States that I intend to declare to the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), under the Protocol Additional
to the Agreement between the United States of America and
the International Atomic Energy Agency for the Application of
Safeguards in the United States of America, with Annexes, signed
at Vienna on June 12, 1998 (the ‘‘U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol’’),
and constitutes a report thereon, as required by section 271 of Public
Law 109–401. In accordance with section 273 of Public Law
109–401, I hereby certify that:

(1) each site, location, facility, and activity included in the
list has been examined by each department and agency with
national security equities with respect to such site, location, facility,
or activity; and

(2) appropriate measures have been taken to ensure that information
of direct national security significance will not be
compromised at any such site, location, facility, or activity in
connection with an IAEA inspection.
The enclosed draft declaration lists each site, location, facility,
and activity I intend to declare to the IAEA, and provides a detailed
description of such sites, locations, facilities, and activities,
and the provisions of the U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol under
which they would be declared. Each site, location, facility, and activity
would be declared in order to meet the obligations of the
United States of America with respect to these provisions.
The IAEA classification of the enclosed declaration is ‘‘Highly
Confidential Safeguards Sensitive’’; however, the United States regards
this information as ‘‘Sensitive but Unclassified.’’
Nonetheless, under Public Law 109–401, information reported to,
or otherwise acquired by, the United States Government under this
title or under the U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol shall be exempt
from disclosure under section 552 of title 5, United States Code.

Does it LOOK like "Hanford" is "closed"?

(I will look up the DOE-1170 document or comments documents if possible and add what this means). There is only one other reference to Richland, Washington and I'll add all the info below and then later try to see if I can find a way to link the whole official document.)

That was everything I saw listed for Washington state. So, everybody, there is no "clean up" and closure. There are ongoing experiments and testing and development of nuclear reactors and energy. And though this says highly confidential, it was claimed to be "sensitive" but not a matter of national security or anything, so I posted it. However, we don't know all of the other projects that are going on, and all we know is that we have sophisticated nuclear technology in our state and this is both, probably, a boon and a benefit.

I'd personally like to know how this has affected me and my son, if we were part of some planned testing or experiment or if the wrong technology was just too readily available in the wrong hands.

I have some photos of a metal drain type thing that was used on the property, where I found the metal detector guy snooping around. He didn't look like he was from Wenatchee. He was too sophisticated. A little diamond stud in one ear but very business-professional and wearing very well-made clothing. He wasn't poor, looking for coins in the snow.

Still, while something to do with testing could explain the "blasts" or triggers for seizure or whatever my son and I experienced, I still think magnetic pulse fits better, because it would enable the toy operation from a distance, hacking onto a desktop without internet access, and a host of other health symptoms. It could have been two things. I don't know.

I do know, I have talked to more than one federally employed psychologist who decided to befriend me for some reason, and no one ever thought I was mentally ill. The people in D.C. knew I wasn't too, and a lot of doctors wanted to meet me.

Too bad they couldn't have met my son.

What news scoop do you have? Just do a little looking and you get all kinds of stuff about that release.

if you read what I wrote, I was talking about The Wenatchee World not getting this story printed.

News broke or was released through the APA and I wrote about it before most of the papers, even locally, wrote about it.

There are plenty of articles about it, but not a lot where the reader can go directly to the source and read the actual report themselves.

Why? because sites were being asked to remove this information.

So, number one, it IS new news, because most people thought Hanford wasn't operational anymore and two, I DID get something written about this which specifically applies to the state of Washington, before most writers.

Finally, I am looking over the last comments I've had and your writing fits the character and style of several comments which have been made which are always negative, and always intrusive and find fault or flaw.

Thank you for your comments, and it's good to have negative opinions where iron sharpens iron, but your comments are not really iron but more of a dull blade and you're not even using this on me...you're sort of trying to sharpen this dull blade to no avail.

I do think it's great you listed some other articles people can read.

What would be better, would be if you could list a link that has the whole official report up still. Now that might be something you could contribute which would be of public interest.

This report is about the process for investigating new types of reactor designs; a blueprint for future reactors. It is about streamlining the process for new types of designs.

The Hanford power plant is still operational, which is equivalent to the dams on the Columbia River. The plutonium reactors are shut down.
