Hello Hounds,
Today I made an impromptu visit to The Gulf Coast Research Laboratory. I strolled the grounds which were adjacent to the water of the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. The University Of Southern Mississippi has dormitories onsite for student scientists and researchers. There are multiple buildings located on site with most of them identified only by a small sign with a number of the suite outside of the door. Some buildings indoors had signs outside for whom was a Director, assistant or name of a person. I spoke with an External Affairs spokesperson as well as a very nice lady whom I will identify as one of the Directors Of Marine Research at the lab for The University Of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast. I asked if any radioanyalysis of water samples of The Gulf Coast area were being taken. I was told they are not doing that type of research. I asked if The Lab worked in coordination with The EPA. I was told yes. Essentially any mention of anything to do with anything other than radionuclides or radiation is being monitored by this lab. Specifically they seem to be concerned with atrocities such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005, as well as The BP oil spill that polluted the Gulf Coast area. Areas of research were specified fish such as grouper, trout and crustaceans such as crabs. They do work in coordination with commercial fisheries. They are grant funded by federal, state and other interests. Which ones were not discussed. I asked who I could interview for an online broadcast. I was told that my visit was over because the External Affairs person had to attend to business. Personally I can tell you that the few people I did encounter seemed less than enthusiastic about my visit after I mentioned that I was very concerned about the fact that no agency, federal, state or local was reporting levels of radioactivity in the water or fish of the Gulf Coast to the public. I stated to the people I met that Fukushima is a problem of tantamount importance that no agency( local, state or federal) seemed to be giving any attention to and informing the public on. The EPA has no less than 5 sister agencies devoted especially to radiolysis of water, air milk, rain and soil samples they collect and analyze in labs throughout the USA. One such organization is RERT which is an Radiological Emergency Response Team for the entire USA. An agency called NAREL is the Operations Manager of Radnet . Radnet is the 124 stations located throughout the USA that has 40 deployable air monitors that can be sent to sample readings of air anywhere. I will keep you posted of what I uncover in plain sight. What is hidden is anyone's guess.
