Workers begin excavation for a new Recovery-Act-funded interim moisture barrier at Hanford’s TY Farm. The barrier is designed to act as a protective shield and prevent rainwater from seeping into the soil and pushing leaked radioactive and chemical waste deeper into the ground. The $4.8 million project is funded by the Recovery Act.

As a part of the Malahat Safety Improvements, barriers were recently installed along sections of the Malahat on the Trans Canada Highway. Five sections of new concrete median barrier, totalling 5.4 km, will be added to the Malahat by spring 2013. When complete, over 40 per cent of the Malahat corridor will be separated with median barrier.
The installation of this section of median barrier will cost approximately $250,000. This is part of the government of British Columbia’s $8 million commitment to additional concrete median barrier and other safety improvements on the Malahat.

Back in the summer of 1995, I first photographed the Barrier. At that time, I was using a Canon EOS 5 and black and white film. The summer of 1995 was a long, hot one and today it felt just the same.

Typographic rendering of a poem I wrote. Here is the original poem:
People build thick walls
To stop the hateful calls
Of the world around them.
Deceit and fear
Cause many to cast a blind eye
To all the evils in this place we live.
Gender and religion
Does humanity need to sign a petition
To break down the unseen differences we are told to see?
Body language and racist calls
Haunt the chaotic halls
Of our mind.
Politicians build those barriers
With bombs
And death
And their so-called “democracy”
When all of this MaDnEsS needs to stop.
Why are people afraid of each other
When we are so alike
You and I
He and she
Them and we
Remember what happened to the Berlin Wall
For all barriers are bound to fall.
Why do we have barriers around us all the time, we lock nature out and lock ourselves in to protect us from the big bad world. We chat to anonymous people half way around the World but don't know our neighbors, we avoid eye contact with strangers rather than smile at them.
Pull down the barriers and enjoy life.
