Hop the fence guys down at the entrance to Dayton Canyon and work your way up the riverbed. They dumped alot of stuff up that canyon and the area has very sketchy security fencing with survey work which is Boeings spank the monkee way of showing they are keeping busy. Tie a pink ribbon on a tree type of thing.
Yes, I am aware that it is nothing new, yet it is new to many that didn't know about it before. I lived in the area for over 25 years with out ever hearing about what happened , my parents, my family , friends, most people i run across in Simi Valley, have never heard of any Contamination , or Nuclear Disasters. Still to this day a good portion of the world is not aware of what took place in the hills above Simi Valley. So in many many ways this is very new information.
Your find is nothing new. It's been known by most residents in the West valley thet the area between Woolsey canyon (which was also once known as Roketdyne Rd) and the Santa Susannas is poisoned by years of testing by Rockwell/Rocketdyne. The LA Weekly published a huge expose on it about 5 years ago. Boeing refuses to clean it up because it's overall in the long run cheaper for them to pay the fines to the State and the EPA than to actually clean up the problem.
Yes, I am aware that Simi Valley didn't exist when the lab was created, but you make that statement as if it didn't matter when Simi Valley did exist, Simi Valley does exist today and the time has come to close down the Santa Susana Field Laboratory and clean up the mess! It's because of all those careless experimental Nuclear reactor and Rocket engine tests that has left so much contamination. Can you remove the chemicals? Take them out of the ground, the water and the air we breathe?
Do You actually think your safe working there? That the land surrounding the Lab isn't contaminated ? It has been calculated that you are working at a facility or near by the area where infact several Nuclear disasters took place in which one of them in July of 1959 was the all time worst Radiation release in United States History. There was no containment dome, are you even aware of that? Do you actually think that the surrounding Ranches and Canyons are safe?
I'm glad your doing fine! Certainly not everyone is going to get sick and die, but alot of people are, those are the facts. Your not working in an healthy environment at all. The truth is the Santa Susana Field Laboratory should have been closed down and fenced off from the public in July of 1959.
I was unaware it was open to the public an any time since it was opened. I am currently under the impression (and the anal security guard out front makes me think this) that it's a private facility... in fact I was required to get secret access to work here.
In any event, these videos are funny. They carry on like the site was opened next to sage ranch, or built in the middle of a bunch of houses. when this place opened the concept of hazmat protocols didn't exist, nor did simi valley.
The BOEING PROPERTY IS open next to sage Ranch, the creek bed is open, been there seen it with my own two eyes, documented it on this film, and your claiming their are fences, sir that just dosen't make any sense. The run off of water from the Lab goes right into this creek that I did document, and IS open to the public, there is no fence, if you do infact work there you should know that. I am not an expert in Radiation readings. I never have claimed to be. So lets just get that part straight.
It would be very interesting to see what or if "urbandruid" develops health problems 10-20 years from now. Most employees at a facility like this have the same attitude as "urbandruid" everything is OK. Thats how the workers felt 30 ago. Years later they find out the Truth. I would think that many parts of SSFL are "HOT"close to where people work even today. Tough to detect radiation exposure at work without proper counters and permission.

And microrems?! REALLY?! You're gonna worry about exposure of 30 MICROrems? Do you guys even know what you're measuring?
