Book Synopsis Radioactive Clouds of Death over Utah by : Dr. Daniel W. Miles
Download or read book Radioactive Clouds of Death over Utah written by Dr. Daniel W. Miles and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RADIOACTIVE CLOUDS OF DEATH OVER UTAH From 1950 to the 1958 moratorium on atmospheric testing, the Atomic Energy Commission detonated over 100 atomic bombs at the Nevada Test Site. The inhabitants of St. George, Utah--the so-called downwinders--were repeatedly in the fly zone of these toxic, windblown clouds--so much so that St. George became known nationwide as Fallout City, USA. In the fall of 1979, Stewart Udall, along with a team of lawyers, came to St. George to announce plans for a class-action lawsuit against the United States because the local people were struggling with tragedies inflicted by a cancer epidemic foisted on them by the Atomic Energy Commission. After interviewing 125 people during a four-day period, the Washington lawyer said that cancer rates in the area were three or four times greater than normal. Many people in southwestern Utah believe that thousands of citizens throughout the West are still dying from radiation-exposure inflicted on them by fallout from the Nevada Test Site during the 1950s. The author has spent decades investigating the Test Site issues. He was living in St. George, Utah during the atmospheric testing period in the 1950s. He knows the people. He has read every local paper from the period, counted the tombstones, tracked the anecdotes to ground and studied the dozens of scientific studies on the impact of fallout on the health of the local people. This book is the result of that investigation. The author, Dr. Daniel W. Miles, Professor Emeritus, Dixie State College, received his Ph.D. from the University of Utah in 1967. He taught upper division physics including radiation physics at Westminster College from 1968 to 1985 and continued his teaching career at Dixie State College. He is the author or coauthor of fortytwo publications in peer reviewed scientific journals.
Download or read book Downwind written by Sarah Alisabeth Fox and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Downwind is an unflinching tale of the atomic West that reveals the intentional disregard for human and animal life through nuclear testing by the federal government and uranium extraction by mining corporations during and after the Cold War. Sarah Alisabeth Fox highlights the personal cost of nuclear testing and uranium extraction in the American West through extensive interviews with “downwinders,” the Native American and non-Native residents of the Great Basin region affected by nuclear environmental contamination and nuclear-testing fallout. These downwinders tell tales of communities ravaged by cancer epidemics, farmers and ranchers economically ruined by massive crop and animal deaths, and Native miners working in dangerous conditions without proper safety equipment so that the government could surreptitiously study the effects of radiation on humans. In chilling detail Downwind brings to light the stories and concerns of these groups whose voices have been silenced and marginalized for decades in the name of “patriotism” and “national security.” With the renewed boom in mining in the American West, Fox’s look at this hidden history, unearthed from years of field interviews, archival research, and epidemiological studies, is a must-read for every American concerned about the fate of our western lands and communities.

Book excerpt: Presented at the Hearings on Fallout before the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy, May 5-8. 1959. About one megaton of energy from fission has been released at the Nevada Test Site from nuclear test detonations. The total tesultant fission product activity, if measured at one hour after formation, would have been about 400 to 600 billion curies. There was nothing that could be done to lessen the production of radioactive isotopes from a fission reaction thus the utmost care and skill were required ia the conduct of the tests to minimize the deppsition of the activity outside the Test Site. A summary of the data on fall-out from nuclear detonations at the Nevada Test Site is presented. (auth).
