Many of the announced sites for the plants are in the coastal areas. Koodamkulam in Tirunelveli district of Tamil Nadu is one of the sites. (Two 1000 mw VVER nuke stations are already under construction here. The Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd says that they will set up 4 more reactors here.) Local people are up in arms against the proposal. The public hearing had to be postponed twice due to people's resistance. Koodamkulam is less than a hundred kms from Kerala. The nanoparticles - fission products - released through the stacks there will take less than three hours to reach here. Fishing also will be affected. Kindly attend the meeting being convened to discuss the issue and plan our future actions. Venue : Trivandrum Hotel, Time : 5 PM, 5 May 2007 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
