The Fremont Troll sculpture receives its annual scrub down from Fremont Arts Council volunteers on Sunday, October 26, 2014. The troll was created in 1990, and resides under the north side of the Aurora Bridge. #frefordtoday

Staff and Conservation Jobs Corps members at Patapsco help cleanup the Avalon area after devastating flash floods rocked central Maryland on July 30, 2016.
Image from an archived slide film presumably showing a demonstration of basic asbestos cleanup process. This photo shows its apparent age by the use of an outdated asbestos "caution" waste bag, which has since been updated to "danger" warning labels. Likewise, modern asbestos abatement workers have also ended the apparent practice of wearing dress-shoes and dress-socks while removing asbestos in the good-ol'-days.

Another year, another cleanup - and, as always, lots and lots of marine debris.
Myself, footsore311 and a couple of friends participated in the Washington Coast Cleanup this past weekend. Despite a weather forecast of rain, rain and more rain we enjoyed spells of clear skies, a lovely sunset, moon sightings and ferocious winds that managed to dry out all our wet gear upon departure yesterday morning.
I've been visiting Sand Point since my childhood. I've visited with friends and family. I've visited during all seasons. I've visited during wild storms (on purpose). I've night hiked in. I've night hiked out. When I embarked on my first solo overnighter a couple of years ago, Sand Point proved a fitting destination.
This past trip I was thinking about those visits, as well as the places that are nearest and dearest to my heart.
Sand Point is certainly one of my favorite places.
It is a place where my heart sings.
It is a place I will never tire of visiting.
It is a place I'm deeply thankful for - and as such, it's very rewarding to do my part to keep this treasured place a little bit cleaner.
What places are you thankful for? Be it a beach, mountain or forest trail - consider saying "thank you" to your favorite places by picking up garbage during your next visit.

Decommissioning is the process of removing a commercial nuclear power plant from service so that the land may be used for something else. Decommissioning is a complex process that can take up to 60 years.

Workers at the new Cask Processing Enclosure at Oak Ridge have helped double the site’s Transuranic Waste Processing Center’s processing rates.
October 23, 2010, the Department of Energy’s Savannah River Site (SRS) removed two exhaust stacks from the Site’s P & R reactors. With less than 40 pounds of dynamite and in a matter of seconds, the two 145-foot tall, 700-ton stacks that have towered over the P and R Reactors for more than 50 years came down. The demolition is part of an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act project that is decommissioning the two Cold War era reactors.
This $185 million Recovery Act demolition project is part of in situ, or in-place, decommissioning of the two reactors, a Recovery Act Program managed by Savannah River Nuclear Solutions (SRNS), the SRS management and operations contractor. The project employed 108 people to complete the stack demolition. The rubble from the stacks will be placed below grade and grouted in place at each of the reactors.
In preparation for the demolition, SRNS modified the base of each stack to create “columns” into which they will drill 80 15-inch-deep horizontal holes for explosive loading. The explosive charge was initiated by nonelectric detonators ranging in time from 25-200 milliseconds to assist in controlling the rate and direction of the fall of each stack. Seismographs where used in the immediate area to monitor the vibration and air blast generated by the demolition. The P Reactor stack fell first, followed by the R Reactor stack. A video of the demolition is available [here].
The demolitions were performed by Controlled Demolition, Inc. (CDI), the contractor that also felled the 52-million-pound, 450-foot-high and 345-foot-wide K Cooling Tower in May.
In the ongoing phase of in situ decommissioning, the reactors’ underground structures will be filled with an estimated 260,000 cubic yards of concrete grout. This will seal the structures and leave them safely intact for an estimated 1,400 years. The reactor buildings themselves will have little or no maintenance performed on them in the future.
While the reactors were operational, the P and R reactor stacks were used as the outlet for the exhaust from the reactor buildings. R Reactor was shut down in 1964, and P Reactor was shut down in 1988. If left in place, the height and configuration of the reactors’ exhaust stacks could pose serious risk due to degradation and possible collapse in the future. Removing them mitigates that risk.
