‘Don’t waste Australia’: Aussie govt under fire over nuclear waste shipment, fears of global dump
‘Australia has received 25 tons of its own reprocessed nuclear waste that is still feared to contain plutonium. The waste will be housed at the Lucas Heights reactor until a new site is built, amid concerns the country may become a nuclear dumping ground.
About a dozen Greenpeace protesters, some carrying signs such as “Don’t waste Australia,” stood near the entrance to Port Kembla, south of Sydney, as the BBC Shanghai ship arrived on Saturday.
Greenpeace has questioned the safety of transporting some 25 tons of waste, generated by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and sent to France in 2001 to be reprocessed.’
