I attended the Toxic Talk 2007 Symposium in Room A of the
Iowa City Public Library today, November 2. This symposium
was especially interesting to me because my late father had
worked in this field on contract during my boyhood. But
recently, I have been disappointed by academics giving
biased, inaccurate or fanciful lectures, talks and symposiums,
whereas I felt that this was a very honest and forthright
presentation.
Lawrence Fuortes, associate professor of the University of
Iowa Departments of Internal Medicine and Occupational and
Environmental Health, and associate director of the
University Employee Health Clinic, spoke first, and as he had
to catch a plane to New York, his presentation was
restricted by time.
He said that all of the presentations of the symposium have,
intertwined in all of these talks, the common disadvantage
that the recipients who received these injustices suffered
from an inability to do anything about it.
Secrecy due to National Security kept victims not only from
finding out about their risks in handling the nuclear products,
but they were not allowed by law to talk to their doctors and
families about their exposure because it was above the level
of top secret.
In 1999, the Department of Labor created the Energy
Employee Occupational Illness Compensation Program to
assess, organize, and reimburse employees who were affected
by radiation doses. But maladies sometimes did not appear
for decades, as much as fifty years later in many cases. The
victims were required to prove that their malady was caused
by radiation in their work place, however, records by that
time were rare, and there was the prohibition still in existence
about talking about how the employee might have
encountered radiation effects. Uranium is highly unstable and
it is very dense, which is why it is so radioactive.
Ames, Iowa produced 2-million-plus pounds (1,000 tons) of
uranium for the Manhattan Project. It is received in the form
of salts, and then is processed into refined Uranium. In
Little Ankeny Iowa, a building resembling a residential house
was its laboratory and Uranium smelter called "Old Women's
Gymnasium". It processed the very first Uranium for our
country from 1942 until the second world war, and then it
produced Thorium from 1942 to about 1956, which is even
more hazardous than Uranium.
A physician's memo stated that 300 people at Paducah,
Kentucky should be checked for Neptunium, but extensive
studies of the victims were curtailed because the union could
use that as an excuse to call for hazard pay.
Beryllium is widely used in fission research. It is the lightest
metal with the tightest nucleus, making it ideal for alteration.
But, Beryllium lung disease only occurs in those people who
have the genetic code to become ill by it. It is not
dosage-critical, so that exposure to a person with the DNA
that is susceptible to it is the criteria, not the length or
amount of exposure.
The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
sent a "Passback" memo which said that claims must be
encapsulated so as not to incur huge pay-outs in
compensation to victims. The common medium doses found
in what research was done amounted to 50 Rems or more
per year for Uranium workers, and 250 rems or more for
Thorium workers.
The conflict between "Need To Know" and secrecy left
workers in ignorance because they did not often know what
they were handling, where it came from, or where it was
going to, so they have a much higher degree of justified
"normal blue collar paranoia" about what they are working
with than in other occupations subject to personal safety
risks.
_____________________________________________
The next speaker was Gerard Rushton, professor of
Geography and adjunct professor of Health Policy and
Management at UofI. He presented the very interesting topic
of "Mapping The Geography Of Cancer." I had not expected
his presentation to be so interesting! He is doing research for
improving the mapping of cancer by data, and the revelations
his visuals provided were honestly astounding, I am not
exaggerating!
He said that Iowa has a very good cancer registry program,
which is not true throughout much of our USA. There are
registrations of cancer deaths in most cases, but not of
cancer incidence, which is when people are diagnosed to
have contracted or do have cancer.
In 1975, one of the first geographic cancer maps was
produced. His geographic map showed San Francisco bay area,
Las Vegas valley, the Gulf Coast and Atlantic Coast for
having the highest rates of lung cancer in our USA.
Prominently noted was that all of these areas had something
in common: asbestos! These were the areas where Liberty
Ships were built, and asbestos was mined and processed!
In 1999, the National Institutes of Health and National Cancer
Institute published the Atlas of Cancer Mortality in the United
States 1950-94, just when the internet was becoming very
popular. Information was greatly disseminated about this
atlas, even though the atlas was never announced when it
was released!
He finished after more presentation regarding the atlas by
saying that by Iowa law in 1972, every cancer incidence goes
into the cancer registry, which presents a question about
privacy of the individual, particularly in smaller population
areas where everyone knows everybody else.
__________________________________________________
The next presenter was Julie Andsager, associate professor
and Director of Graduate Studies in the UofI School of
Journalism and Mass Communication, with a secondary
apppointment in the Department of Community and
Behavioral Health. She said that her talk was not intended
originally to focus on media coverage. She presented many
interesting factual insights about news coverage in our
present-day USA.
She said that it was in 1987 that, Benjamin Chavis created
the term "Environmental Racism". It referred to the fact that
most toxic waste dumping sites were near low-income,
minority racial neighborhoods rather than near middle-income
prominent neighborhoods. In the 1990s the term changed to
be more positive, not the message that there were victims
who were powerless to do anything about their situation and
nobody cared, but more in the Environmental Justice frame
of being able to do something about it.
Julie Andsager said she found three things in her research:
1) She could not find any sustained news in newspapers of
three major cities that covered Environmental Justice;
2) Lots and lots of books on cases about environmental
INjustice rarely had much mention of news coverage;
3) She found a large indication of ignorance by the public on
both environmental injustice and Environmental Justice.
She said that since then, she has found no significant
structural changes that could have been made to alleviate
conditions of environmental injustice.
Characteristics of Environmental Justice organizations are:
1) they seldom receive funding from national environmental
groups - and they are generally community based;
2) they are comprised of working-class people of color who
are without prior social involvement experience
3) I missed this one, the visual was taken away.
Ringwood New Jersey Superfund site: Ringwood New Jersey
vs Ford Motor Company
The Ringwood New Jersey area has been a local area with
reservoirs and lakes. But for 200 years, it had one of the
largest iron ore mining operations in our USA. There were
abandoned mining shafts everywhere. Ford began dumping
their Mahwah auto plant's auto paint and solvent sludge into
the abandoned mine tunnels. The tunnels began to leak.
Millions of gallons of dumped paint sludge found its way out
of the mines into the creeks and water tables of the
surrounding area. The site was placed on the National
Priorities List in 1983, with indications of community bladder
liver and lung cancers, severe skin problems, asthma, and
people in the area rarely lived to see age 60. But the site
was removed from the list in 1994, but then was restored
to the list in 2006.
The Hackensack Record (also known as the Bergen County
Record) had 114 news stories on the Ringwood Mines from
February 26, 2004 to September 27, 2006, in thirty-one
months' period. And there was a five-part series titled "Toxic
Legacy" that ran in October 2005 (www.toxiclegacy.com).
As Julie Andsager did her research on this and other incidents,
she found the following components to news coverage and
the public:
1) ATTENTION CYCLE OVER ISSUES: Public awareness
foments
2) PUBLIC ALARM: realization about the problem
3) REALIZATION OF COSTS: where everyone realizes there is
no "simple fix" to the problem, it will cost a lot
4) DECLINE OF INTEREST: where processes are in action or
in limbo and it has been going on a long time
5) POST PROBLEM STAGE: where there at least appears to
be a resolution, things seem to be getting done or is stalled
6) EQUILIBRIUM: everything seems okay now whether it is or
not
________________________________________________
I did not write down the Questions and Answers session,
although my question led the first of them. I also did not stay
for the second part, because I wanted to show at the 5PM
peace vigil at the Pentacrest, so I missed out on the following
topics at 4:15 PM:
"Air Quality Regulation in Delhi, India: Environmental Justice or
Injustice?"
"Economic Growth Versus the Environment In Mexico"
"Intersections: Discourses of Social and Environmental Justice
On Black Websites"
