Nuclear Emergency Planning

A non-political discussion on safety and emergency plans

West Berks. Council



AWE EMERGENCY PLAN

The West Berks. Council Emergency Plan for AWE is on the Council’s website at http://www.westberks.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=12156. It was due to be updated this year, but the 2004 version remains the current plan. The risks of a nuclear accident at AWE Aldermaston or Burghfield, or with a convoy on the road, may be small because reasonable precautions are taken by the MoD and AWE. However, the concern is that something will go terribly wrong and a nuclear release to the atmosphere will occur.

Newletter Winter 2006

| If you usually debate an issue first, and make recommendations to be voted on afterwards, this is not the way the contentious issue of replacing Trident is being handled. It has been obvious to anyone observing what is happening on the ground and at the West Berkshire Council’s Planning Committee meetings, that AWE have not been preparing for a possibility that the decision might be to stop manufacturing new warheads.

Newsletter Summer 2006

| Aldermaston has been a focus of protest for nearly 50 years. Protest is a national institution and a symbol of our democracy, but it has just been made virtually impossible. New bye-laws have been brought in which prohibit anyone from taking part in, attending or organising any meeting or procession outside AWE Aldermaston. They also prohibit the distribution or display of any "leaflet, sign, poster, notice or any similar form of "communication" outside Aldermaston.
