West Newton, Well Site29th May 2014 Rath­lin Ener­gy caught activists nap­ping today when lor­ries arrived at Craw­ber­ry Hill site in East York­shire. The police had allowed Rath­lin to ignore (no right turn) traf­fic signs to gain access with­out the knowl­edge of the activists wait­ing fur­ther down the road.
Activists aired their con­cerns about radio active haz­ard signs attached to lor­ries arriv­ing to remove waste water at the West New­ton site near Ald­bor­ough. The sur­face water had over­flowed the man made ditch­es made specif­i­cal­ly for the pur­pose due to heavy overnight rain. It seems this presents no present threat but fears are that when drilling begins again and the radioac­tive ele­ments are brought to the sur­face any fur­ther over­flow would con­t­a­m­i­nate the sur­round­ing area. Res­i­dents of the USA and Cana­da have pre­vi­ous­ly report­ed ‘dead zones’ of once thriv­ing eco­log­i­cal areas. con­t­a­m­i­nat­ed by frack­ing and radioac­tive chem­i­cals, after over­flow­ing into ponds and lakes.
Activists were also wor­ried about ‘drill tips’ and acces­sories used in the drilling process­es. These are accord­ing to the activists, tipped with deplet­ed Ura­ni­um, to cut through the tough­est rock. Although it can­not be con­firmed that these prac­tis­es are tak­ing place in the East Rid­ing area, the tech­nique and equip­ment, have been avail­able for quite some time.
The Envi­ron­ment Agency has already giv­en per­mits to Rath­lin to extract waste, includ­ing radioac­tive waste. Uncon­firmed reports sug­gest Der­mot Nes­bit (Rath­lin Ener­gy direc­tor) had used his influ­ence as an Ex North­ern Ire­land, Envi­ron­ment Min­is­ter to secure the per­mits, from the Envi­ron­ment Agency, the same depart­ment (with­in North­ern Ire­land) of which he was once chief.
Hull and East York­shire anti frack.
