Updates from the British Nuke industry.

category international | environment | other press author Tuesday September 06, 2005 18:35author by water proof container Report this post to the editors

The British Nuclear industry does not only include THORP issues which are familiar with most -

Sellafield popped into the news today with a trade union case being dismissed in London which suggests worker relations are not their best at the plant. And the IT services have just been outsourced.

Today a case of an alleged assault and battery by a manager at Sellafield on a Sellafield worker and Amicus shop steward was thrown out of Whitehaven Magistrates Court on grounds of disputed evidence.

Civil Nuclear Constabulary officers have been drafted in to patrol Sizewell A and B near Leiston in Suffolk on the English south east coast.

Sizewell A nuclear power station was built in the 1960s and started generation in 1966. It consists of two 1000 MW(th) Magnox reactors, producing a total output of 450 MW(e). The power station is due to start the decommissioning process in 2007, after shutdown in 2006. By 2004, it had produced over 100,000,000,000 MWh of electricity - equivalent to supply the whole of the UK's domestic needs for over half a year.

The Sizewell B nuclear reactor is a pressurised water reactor (PWR) of 1188 MW. It was built between 1988 and 1995.

There are still many others which are not being offered "security measures appropriate to the perceived level of threat or general public safety". The Sizewell installations seem to have got the honour of armed guards because greenie protesters have entered them so often

It has been revealed that deep in the bowels of theCumbrian nuclear plant there is a freezer packed with anexpanding mountain ofradioactive gulls."
