The Nuclear Baltic Map project is result of the Baltic Sea Infotour project.

See the preliminary map.

Nuclear Baltic Map Project

With the Baltic Sea Info Tour 2010 we focused on gathering information about nuclear issues around the Baltic Sea, images of these places and facilities, operators, critical groups, links and other resources to be used for the Nuclear Baltic Map. Now we will work on these materials to produce some brief introductions to these facilities and issues for the Atomic Threats Around the Baltic Sea book project.


Texts

general issues

  • radioactive contamination of the Baltic Sea
    • impacts of atomic bombs tests, Chernobyl accident, Sellafield, NPPs
    • nuclear transports across the sea -> risks of accidents of the ships, collisions with other transports of hazardous materials; low level radiation (without accidents) increasing health risks
      • depleted uranium waste transports, uranium transports, radioactive waste transports, fuel element transports
      • Rostock harbour as a transition point for nuclear materials
      • nuclear harbour in St. Petersburg and its extension
        • Floating NPP Akademik Lomonosov is under assembly the Baltic Shipyard in Saint Petersburg.[1] It is scheduled to start operating in late 2012[2], after which it will be moved to Vilyuchinsk, in the Kamchatka region[3] - probably will be sailing through the Baltic Sea? (added by imota)
    • increase of risks through new uranium mining plans, new NPP developments around the sea + repository plans beneath the sea
  • Åland in the shadow of nuclear power[4] - (not enough)
  • impacts of the radioactivity in the Baltic Sea to Denmark?
    • no nuclear facilities but most of the impacts...
  • the (not only Baltic Sea-related) impacts of Chernobyl - (T has Russian text?)
  • Uranium Mining around the Baltic Sea => Uranium in Sweden
    • history of uranium mining in Sweden and Finland
    • current run for uranium in Sweden and Finland
    • risks of uranium mining for concerned communities and environment

NPPs

Repositories

Uranium mining

Other sites

  • Kokkola (uranium extraction facility)[42] (Finland)
  • Harjavalta (Talvivaara uranium extraction facility)[43] (Finland)
  • Soznovyj Bor (waste burning & processing facilities) (Russia)
    • also site of Leningrad NPP
    • didn't find any information about waste burning + processing facilities there... --Falk 08:06, 11 December 2010 (CET)
    • In the storages of the Leningrad nuclear power plant in Sosnovy Bor, there is spent fuel equivalent to about 5000 tons of uranium. Since there is no intention to reprocess it, it will probably stay there for a long time.[33] In Sosnovy Bor, there is also a regional management centre for radioactive wastes. In the storages of the centre there is 60 000 m3 of radioactive waste. Its total activity is about 10 petabecquerels (PBq = 1015 Bq).[34]
  • RWMP – Radioactive Waste Manegment Plant, Svierk (Poland)
  • ZAW Lubmin (dissemination) (Germnay)
  • Roskilde Experimental Site[44] (Denmark)
  • Västerås Fuel Elements Factory[45] (Sweden)
  • Studsvik Nuclear Complex[46] (Sweden) (draft added -imota)
    • e.g. several conditioning factories for radioactive materials
    • Previously site of several research reactors, the last ones shut down in 2005, some still awaiting deconstruction. [47]

Appendix

Lists of:

  • proposed sites for uranium mining, exploration etc. in Finland and Sweden (and more?) as well as former mining and exploration projects in the area

Requirements for each facility page

  • a picture of the facility that we are allowed to use
  • infobox with technical information about the facility, for example:
    • Operator
    • Capacity
    • (How much radiation it sets free?)
    • when started to build, when will be ready, delays... (depending of facility)
    • How much a power plant produces
    • type of reactor
    • about exploration sites: Sizes
    • how much waste a reactor produces per year, information about the fuel
    • how many employees
    • number of people living around the facility
    • number of accidents
  • short text (1'500 characters max.)
  • contact details of critical groups working against this facility
    • group name, phone, email, website, postal address
  • links to operator and critical websites


Links to regional groups/organisations of possible interest

Finland:

Russia:

Estonia:

Latvia:

Lithuania:

Poland:

Belarus(?):

Germany:
