US nuclear agency manages disaster training in multiple countries
If you live in the Midwest and see a bunch of emergency officers who look as if they react to an explosion of an nuclear power plant next week, don’t worry. US and Canada governments are exercising in many countries to prepare for any potential nuclear disaster. And until you see a mushroom cloud in the distance, you’re probably fine.
The Ministry of Energy has released a press release on Thursday, announcing that 70 local, state, provincial and federal agencies from the US and Canada will conduct an exercise called Cobalt Magnet 25 of March 14-21. At least 3000 people will participate in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Ontario, which simulates an emergency assassination installation.
Cobalt Magnet 25 has been working for 18 months and will allow response teams to practice scanning for radiological materials and providing emergency services to the population. Returning basic services online is also part of training. The National Nuclear Security Administration, part of the Ministry of Energy, expose the word so that people do not panic if they see emergency reactors move around.
“During the exercise, public members can see staff to respond to protective clothing using radiological monitoring and detection equipment, low flying aircraft, conducting data conversion, and first response groups and others placed in different places. There will be no need for an alarm, “the press report said. “Cobalt Magnet 25 is part of a regular training, exercise and planning program to prepare in the event of an emergency of public health and safety.”
These types of workouts originated in the 70’s As a way to train for the unthinkable. The United States was experiencing a rash of nuclear blackmail attempts, which led to the creation of the Nuclear Emergency Search team now known as the Nuclear Emergency Team (NEST).
“The Nuclear Emergency Maintenance Team-the nest-trained to provide persons to whom the persons of decision-making” during radiological incidents during radiological incidents, “says Dr. Veddin Smith, the deputy of the Ministry of the Ministry.
The Nest team often trains for the worst scenario, whether it is a deliberate terrorist act involving nuclear material or accidental incident such as those of Chernobyl Island or three miles in the 1970s and 1980s.
“We exercise to confirm our ability to quickly determine the extent and severity of radiological dangers, whether and how the public is affected and to allow the optimal answer,” Smith said. “If such a scenario happens, it will save life and reduce public impacts. Nest’s main mission is to provide this critical information to local, state and federal leaders as soon as possible. “
Unfortunately, President Donald Trump and his billionaire Stoj Elon Musk do not seem to understand how much the work of the living nest is. They fired hundreds of NNSA employees just to hire them back after These idiots I have learned that the Ministry of Energy is the agency that is responsible for preserving our nuclear weapons and responds to any nuclear accident.
Again, you probably don’t have to worry if you see a bunch of nuclear specialists in the Midwest this weekend. But it seems remarkable that these workouts still include friends of America from Canada. Trump has repeatedly suggested that he will invade the country, historically one of the largest allies in America. And Canadians are understandably upset by the completely unnecessary provocation, as Trump says he wants to do it “51st country”.
Here’s the Hope that the Cobalt 26 magnet is still involved in the Canadians. Because if not, it means that the US will be much less safe for many reasons.
