I wanted to make you aware of something happening here in Washington County, Tennessee. A newly surfaced internal document shows that the Jonesborough facility still has buried radioactivecontamination on the property from the 1980s, and it wasn’t a small amount. The waste cell sits right next to a creek.
During the recent hurricane, the facility reported water intrusion through a fissure in the structure, with water entering the building and then discharging back out into the surrounding area. That creek flows into a river connected to our public water supply. We have no idea how long the monitoring systems were offline or how much uranium/radioactive contamination may have entered the watershed, because there has been no testing and no public notification from state or federal agencies.
It appears that tens of thousands — possibly over a hundred thousand — people may have been drinking from a potentially contaminated water source, and no one can tell us for how long. Downstream along Little Limestone Creek, there are no birds and almost no wildlife. The ecosystem looks dead. This information came from an internal document, yet nothing has been released to the public, and the media will not cover it.
What’s happening here is going completely unnoticed. We need transparency and independent eyes on this. If you can look into it or point us toward someone who can, it would mean a lot to the people living here.
Erin, are you tracking all of this technology/legislative/policy winds on Small modular nuclear reactors? DoE is angling to put them in neighborhoods. The security/containment risk seems outsized and underdiscussed.
Erin Brockovich and these other two women really worked hard to bring the evidence of contamination to the public. Good work Ladies I hope you get the help you need to dispose of this contamination!!!!
They say they’re “removing” it but can never be completely removed. In Shiprock NM we have a huge berm covering tons of waste right next to the San Juan River that flows into Utah and Northern AZ into Lake Powell, into CA and into the Baja! They Lie!
Former resident of the area here. As much as I do NOT agree with Sen. Josh Hawley’s politics, I’m glad at least some financial compensation is available through the legislation he sponsored. An astounding amount of paperwork that has to be filled out, however.
I use to live in St. Louis just moved back to TN 2 years ago!! I know about this and the group! I know this isn’t the right place to ask this again, I don’t know how to organize like they have Been doing in St. Louis for Memphis! The area these gases are effecting is in South Memphis; which is a rough area where I’m from. It’s mostly an all Black area does have high crime. It’s hard to find people willing to go door to door and talk to the people. They also don’t trust easily, I don’t blame them!
The state legislature just destroyed their home by the redistricting.
Is this group someone I could reach out to ask how they did! All this; right now I’m a one woman show; until the city does something takes responsibility and we are going up against Elon Musk. I need someone to talk to please! This article is so good I love that you featured them!
Update I am a one woman show here! I feel like I need to report to someone how’s it going! They wrote me and said they want to meet! The HHS employee that left when orange man came in office; is from south Memphis and working on Jim Crow 2.0’ she is going to help me the best she can!! I’m still one woman show; not that my shero ( you) helped me get in touch with another shero!! I cannot thank you enough! She was shocked I found you! Thank you!! 🙏🏻 for getting me started!
@Erin Brockovich ps I just found it diluting the clean water in the aquifer! I looked it up that looks important! You know water systems! I’m still going to reach out to that website just wanted to tell you that! I didn’t know it has gotten that bad! Everyone is distracted with the other. I’m going to go and just talk people and leave my info in hopes to get some testimony if anyone is sick yet. Copy you from the movie ( don’t sue me) like I said I’m a one woman show. People are dropping me clues! The person wrote that use to work for HHS
Erin this is excellent. Why is it always the moms and the women who are first to speak truth to power? Btw you have long been a shero of mine. And btw, my kids call me Erin Brokovich when I tell them the story of my dying of every health authority in the UK back in the 90s in the Breast Radiation Injury Claims. I have yet to write about this on Substack. The group action I formed - alone - for 120 women with severe radiation injuries following radiation treatment for breast cancer, with over 2000 women waiting in the wings, exposed a scandalous cover up in the UK public health system. I was told by junior radiotherapists in Bristol that it was about time the scandal was exposed. I was heckled at the UK Radiation Therapy Annual Conference. I was told by no less than the leading firm for multiparty actions in the UK, that we were going to win. And then the claims collapsed. Because of collusion between my Queens Counsel and the defendants lawyers. And my firm refused to support me when I attempted to change QCs because my male supervising partner wanted to be head of the Association of Personal Injuries Lawyers the next year and my QC was on the Board. That QC’s name was Adrian Whitfield . I call him Adrian Shitfield. After the claims collapsed no less than the Imperial Cancer Research Fund published a book anout the claims n which everyone had their real name, except me. I was given a pseudonym. I was defamed. An expert who had withdrawn his support because he wanted to be head of the European Radiation Therapy association or whatever told lies about me. And then the claims net conclusion of the book? Don’t sue your doctors. This book was given to every single breast cancer patient in the UK. I want to write a book about this but haven’t yet had the time. I still have my notes and I know here the bodies are buried. And the injuries are still happening. You have reminded and encouraged me. I would love to be in personal contact.
Go Beavers 🦫 here’s the thing, now say it with me; Problem, Reaction, Solution. The globalists are cornering the oil market in order to make everyone soooo miserable that they beg for returning to nuclear power. They want the endless energy supply for the AI in order to control everything, including you.
BTW: Actor-turned-president Ronald Reagan postulated that “Of the four wars in my lifetime none came about because the U.S. was too strong”; however, who can know what may have historically come to fruition had the U.S. remained the sole possessor of atomic weaponry?
It seems the U.S. nevertheless expects the international community to accept that an American presidency would never initiate a nuclear-weapons exchange. But how can that be known for sure, especially with morally/ethically corrupt U.S. foreign-policy and war-mongering history?
After U.S. President Harry S. Truman relieved General Douglas MacArthur as commander of the forces warring with North Korea — for the latter’s remarks about using many atomic bombs to promptly end the war — Americans’ approval-rating of the president dropped to 23 percent. It was a record-breaking low, even lower than the worst approval-rating points of the presidencies of Richard Nixon and Lyndon Johnson.
Had it not been for the formidable international pressure on Truman (and perhaps his personal morality) to relieve MacArthur as commander, Truman may have eventually succumbed to domestic political pressure to allow MacArthur’s command to continue.
Eye opener. Nuclear protocols are very important and normal for most parts of the world. The United States should have been the most advanced.
I don’t know how many times I watched your movie but I remember every move.
Moms get the job done. Thanks for sharing this!
God bless the "moms". We really need an Army of Moms to lead us out of this train wreck.
I’m very concerned for the next generation. Thank you Erin. May your fight continue to protect our precious Earth.
