Download or read book Lessons Learned from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident for Improving Safety of U S Nuclear Plants written by National Research Council (U.S.). Committee on Lessons Learned from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident for Improving Safety and Security of U.S. Nuclear Plants and published by National Academy Press. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The March 11, 2011, Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami sparked a humanitarian disaster in northeastern Japan. They were responsible for more than 15,900 deaths and 2,600 missing persons as well as physical infrastructure damages exceeding $200 billion. The earthquake and tsunami also initiated a severe nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Three of the six reactors at the plant sustained severe core damage and released hydrogen and radioactive materials. Explosion of the released hydrogen damaged three reactor buildings and impeded onsite emergency response efforts. The accident prompted widespread evacuations of local populations, large economic losses, and the eventual shutdown of all nuclear power plants in Japan. "Lessons Learned from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident for Improving Safety and Security of U.S. Nuclear Plants" is a study of the Fukushima Daiichi accident. This report examines the causes of the crisis, the performance of safety systems at the plant, and the responses of its operators following the earthquake and tsunami. The report then considers the lessons that can be learned and their implications for U.S. safety and storage of spent nuclear fuel and high-level waste, commercial nuclear reactor safety and security regulations, and design improvements. "Lessons Learned" makes recommendations to improve plant systems, resources, and operator training to enable effective ad hoc responses to severe accidents. This report's recommendations to incorporate modern risk concepts into safety regulations and improve the nuclear safety culture will help the industry prepare for events that could challenge the design of plant structures and lead to a loss of critical safety functions. In providing a broad-scope, high-level examination of the accident, "Lessons Learned" is meant to complement earlier evaluations by industry and regulators. This in-depth review will be an essential resource for the nuclear power industry, policy makers, and anyone interested in the state of U.S. preparedness and response in the face of crisis situations.

Book excerpt: "Sacred Water, Water for Life is a call to action. It is an instruction manual. Sacred Water provides direction to regain an Indigenous state of health that incorporates spiritual, emotional, mental and physical aspects of human reality. Sacred Water provides an Indigenous science solution strategy. Sacred Water documents from a Western science perspective, contamination of Mother Earth caused by industrialization that for generations has been adversely affecting the Indigenous state of health. Mercury, dioxin, polychlorinated biphenyls, perfluorochemicals, pesticides, and other pollutants all contribute to the body burden, and damage health. This contamination now causes peril for all living beings on Mother Earth. This time was prophesied by Anishinaabeg spiritual leaders and is called the Seventh Fire. Spiritual leaders of the Three Fires Midewiwin Medicine Society and other spiritual leaders have contributed their wisdom and teachings in Sacred Water. They speak of the Sacred Creation Story and the foundational values and principles given to the Anishinaabeg people by the Creator. To respect all things plants, trees, stones, animals and each other. We are all relatives. We all have the same Mother. Sacred Water is stunningly beautiful in original art, photography and Indigenous design, and 19th Century Anishinaabeg bead work. Many chapters are in Anishinaabemowin and English." --
