The News That Matters about the Nuclear Industry Fukushima Chernobyl Mayak Three Mile Island Atomic Testing Radiation Isotope

Belarus radiation warning for Mid May 2014 and beyond? – Location near Chernobyl ! During International hockey match! EURDEP emergency services data deleted!

“….it is interesting that if there has been an incident in the Chernobyl work site or other that no one has been told about it. A complete lack of transparency exists and the public is denied the right to know. Some food for thought for those countries deciding on nuclear energy as a way to get” cheap” and “safe” electricity. If a bird hits a wind turbine we are told about it, if a nuclear accident or incident occurs we are not!…”

UPDATE h/t Karen from rainbow warriors on face book..

“From May 9-25, 2014, Minsk will host the World Ice Hockey Championship.” says it all !! just as the radiological incident occurred .. what is it with the nuclear corporations and their state sponsored psychopaths wanting to irradiate athletes and sportsmen??

“Background levels of radiation were previously monitored by the U.S. Embassy and other organizations and, to date, have not exceeded levels found on the Eastern seaboard of the United States.” (BS detected!!)

“Belarus has no operating commercial nuclear reactors but is constructing one 30 kilometers from the Lithuanian border with financing and technical support from Moscow.”

Today I looked at EURDEP radiation mapping and got an interesting surprise. Belarus came up as having a high reading but when i tried to access the data there was nothing there. Usually Belarus does not have its radiation mapping available on EURDEP but this last month of May it did. The reason for this might be that an incident occoured at the Chernobyl site and that the emergency mapping was switched on so that various radiological organisations and emergency services would be able to use it.

It is likely that the incident is now past but it might be worth noting that a well publicised international hockey match was being played in May. In fact anti nuclear and democratic activists were rounded up and imprisoned as early as April. Of course this would mean that an international consensus of nuclear organisations let this hockey match go on even though a radiological incident was underway.

If there was an incident it might explain the delay in construction of the sarcophagus as a clean up would have to be done before construction resumed.

Of course you might want to wonder what evidence there is for this.

Firstly, other odd monitoring sites around eastern Europe such as in Austria, Greece and Hungary showed high peaks in mid May and about a week later. On the northern border of the Black Sea another monitoring site in Turkey showed very high peaks. Also in eastern France.

Secondly, all the monitoring sites in Belarus that were switched on had the data stripped. This is because there is a parallel monitoring server with more detail run by the IAEA and associates and the EURDEP public monitoring map is only for the emergency services.

I might point out that the IAEA usually asks monitoring station operators to delete these spikes in radiation as NORM or normal radiation. Some monitors such as the UK comply and some such as Ireland leave a gap and a few others leave the spikes. (In fact the east coast of ireland had on such incident a few days ago but it does no show up on the UK monitors across the channel where the radiation was likely to have come from)

Setting the map from 1 month to 1 week and looking at the Belarus section of EURDEP I could see that the “purple spot” disappeared which allowed me to ascertain that no high peaks were seen by the system, so the spot could relate to the other peaks around the eastern end of Europe.

Questions remain of course and as their is a severe lack of transparency in the nuclear industry as it tries to resalvage its losses since the triple nuclear meltdowns in Fukushima in Japan where bad news comes out weekly if not daily even though the government has threatened up to ten year prison sentences and other punitive actions to those that release this information to the outside world. There are many similarities to Japan and Belarus as both are using dictatorial laws to repress dissent with the blessings of the international community of corporations.

As an aside there are no radiations available from Ukraine and that is a country that might get severely hit by a major release from Belarus. I also wonder if the Russian troop pullback from the Ukrainian border might have been to protect the Russian troops from fallout contamination (if the incident is on going).

There is much conjecture in my above posit I admit but I was struck with the way everything connected and thought i would share my thoughts with you all. Below is some screenshots that i compiled and i will leave a link so you can play with the EURDEP mapping system your selves to see what posits you might come up with.

Finally, it is interesting that if there has been an incident in the Chernobyl work site or other that no one has been told about it. A complete lack of transparency exists and the public is denied the right to know. Some food for thought for those countries deciding on nuclear energy as a way to get” cheap” and “safe” electricity. If a bird hits a wind turbine we are told about it, if a nuclear accident or incident occurs we are not!

(Click on “I agree” set the dropdowns to |”maximum” and 1 month to see the purple dots appear. Right click the mouse until you see the hand, then narrow in on any areas of interest by scrolling the mouse and then click on the monitoring post that you are interested in. There are drop downs on the page that comes up with the chart. I would recommend ” ticking “polyline” to clearly see the peaks).

Measurements in nano sieverts per hour (nSv/h).. move decimal point over to left by 3 decimal places to convert to microsieverts per hour (mcSv/h).
