  • Or, near it according to the State Department of Health at a Nanakuli meeting sometime ago.  It met the NRC rules and the EPA, I believe did not have their list of toxicity ready at that time.  And to Gregory Jazcko of the Department of Energy former AEC did not have his Risk Assement ready either.  So, this is important to attend to get the latest 'inclusive' military recognition of Department of Hawaiian Homes Land toxic waste dumps at Kalaeloa.  It use to be on the Superfund list for nuclear clean up site.  I believe the agreement to follow the NRC rules made it safe, weak, and low contamination to our general public and that was to keep the nuclear isotopes in place. 
    • In 1991 or 1992 after Subic Bay Closed, I was then living in the dorms at UH Manoa.  The Philipino women from Subic Bay came to the university to share their problems.  My talk with a women happened outside my dorm.  She spoke of the 50,000 children left beside the ship and having the look-faces of their American fathers.  Most importantly how racist their PI countrymen were to these children.  I was in my last apporaching year so, I walked away with the thoughts of how many children were abandon here in Hawaii and also too discriminated against.  The smart thing to do was to give these youngsters a quick trip to America and their dead beat fathers should pay child support.  The US courts threw out the case. 
      • The real concern getting back to my posting is:

         

        "In December of 1991, the two governments were again in talks to extend the withdrawal of American forces for three years but this broke down as the United States refused to spell out in detail their withdrawal plans or say if nuclear weapons were kept on base; nuclear weapons were forbidden on Philippine soil."
