The Federal government’s under the radar plan to increase allowable radiation in drinking water Public Watchdog filed comments to the EPA yesterday protesting the Environmental Protection Agency’s plan to increase allowable radiation levels in drinking water.
From the Desk of Charles Langley Thursday, July 21, 2016 Dear Friend, If you have dug this far into our Web site, then perhaps you are as troubled as I am. And you should be. That’s why I started Public Watchdogs: To expose and prevent fraud and government corruption. They’re killing people and putting your children at risk. Consider these examples: 2007 San Diego Wildfires: (Death…
From the Desk of Nina Babiarz, Public Watchdogs Board Member July 20, 2016 In early 2015 I engaged Public Watchdogs’ Executive Director, Charles Langley to assist me in the development of a transportation program specific to revenue generated and to be spent from the California Cap & Trade Program. His research and findings on this elusive government regulated clean air credit ‘Wall Street’ type brokerage was…
Public Watchdogs Executive Director Charles Langley explains how Southern California Edison ran its generators beyond the redline and made you pay for them after they broke.
The cause of a leak in 2012 that led to the permanent shutdown of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station was steam generators being deliberately run too hot, too hard and too fast, according to a report released Tuesday by an independent watchdog organization.
Owners of the failed San Onofre nuclear power plant operated the reactor outside the allowable limits for pressure and temperature, causing the radiation leak that shut down the facility for good in 2012, a new report has found.
A new engineering analysis into what went wrong at the now-shuttered San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) asserts that plant operators intentionally “redlined” the system beyond its breaking point until it was overloaded and began to shake itself to pieces.
View the original article CBS NEWS SAN DIEGO (CNS) – The cause of a leak in 2012 that led to the permanent shutdown of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station was steam generators being deliberately run too hot, too hard and too fast, according to a report released Tuesday by an independent watchdog organization. The analysis asserts that operators of the plant in northern San Diego…
The “Warsaw Poland” notes are the smoking gun showing that the President of the California Public Utilities Commission, Michael Peevey, met secretly with Southern California Edison to craft a bailout of the failed nuclear reactors at San Onofre. The illicit deal was struck in a hotel room at the Bristol Hotel in Warsaw Poland. Nearly every one of the nine “deal points” was later ratified by…
Below are recent photographs of casks that are being stored at San Onofre State Beach from the now-defunct SONGS (San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station). If all goes according to plan, Southern California Edison, the owner of SONGS will store millions of pounds of high-level radioactive waste that’s deadly to humans for millions of years about 100 feet from the beach and a few inches above the water…
Why Public Watchdogs? The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is the regulatory agency that decides in their public hearings how much you pay for electricity. But in the last ten years the CPUC has become controlled by the big utilities they are supposed to regulate. This is why you pay some of the highest electric rates in the continental United States. Our goal, as consumer advocates,…
Radiation alarms began screaming early in the morning last Monday, April 18, at the U.S.A.’s largest military nuclear waste dump. The admission that there is what some are calling a “catastrophic leak” of radioactive waste came 11 months after the leak was first detected by employees (source). The Web site Common Dreams is reporting that a “catastrophic” radiation leak has occurred at the allegedly sturdy double-walled tanks at…
More than 72 transportation professionals attended the Women in Transportation Seminar on the failed San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station and the government’s plans to store 1.6 million pounds of deadly nuclear waste in steel drums 100 feet from the beach. The speakers discussed public safety issues, such as the fact that the steel casks are warrantied by the manufacturer for only 20 years, while the radioactive…
The catastrophic Hanford nuclear radiation leak: Could it happen at San Onofre State Beach? Radiation alarms began screaming early in the morning on Monday, April 18, at the U.S.A.’s largest military nuclear waste dump. The admission that there is what some are calling a “catastrophic leak” of radioactive waste came 11 months after the leak was first detected by employees (source).
