Children told to stay off RADIOACTIVE Beach
It just really makes you wonder why bush co. is so worried about the iranians!?
A beach near Dounreay power station has become Britain's first officially acknowledged radioactive public landscape after pieces of plutonium fuel rods were found there.
Signs warning visitors of the radiation dangers have been posted on the beach, and last month a potentially carcinogenic 4mm fragment of fuel rod was found — the latest in a series of discoveries involving radioactive material.
Last month, the plant was fined £2 million over a radioactive spillage last year, and the past decade has seen a series of well-documented safety failures at Dounreay.
These include the loss of 375lb (170kg) of weapons-grade uranium, enough to make several bombs, as well as serious contamination of employees.
