Did you know that the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOICPA) was enacted to provide compensation and medical benefits to employees who worked at certain Department of Energy (DOE) facilities, including contractors and subcontractors at those locations, and certain of its vendors? During the Cold War, workers employed in the nation's atomic weapons program or other programs may have been exposed to radioactive and toxic substances. As a result, the EEOICPA is intended to benefits to eligible employees and former employees of the U.S. DOE, its contractors and subcontractors, or to certain survivors of such individuals.

The Anti-Nuclear Alliance of Western Australia is a non-profit community group campaigning for an end to the nuclear industry and the adoption of safe energy strategies.

Energy Communities Alliance is the organization of local governments that are adjacent to or impacted by Department of Energy (DOE) activities. Our board members include elected officials and administrators from local governments impacted by DOE.

Welcome to the website of the campaign "Europe's Nuclear Heritage"! This project started in 2006 and was initiated by the German youth environmentalists group "Greenkids e.V.". For this reason much text is in German language. But we try to translate it as soon as possible. Our aim is to provide most articles on this website in English and German, if possible in other languages, too.

Texans for a Sound Energy Policy Alliance's mission is to support a Texas energy supply policy that is reasonable, sustainable and environmentally sound. The main goal is to ensure the process of approving the proposed nuclear power plant is not rushed or secretive. The key questions must be identified and the issues fully discussed. Along with seeking public opinion and community participation in the process, TSEPA has retained engineers, hydrologists, attorneys, and economic and environmental consultants to conduct independent studies to answer questions and highlight any problems that may be identified.

Uranium Watch works to educate and advocate for protection of public health and the environment from past, current, and future impacts of uranium mining, uranium milling, nuclear waste disposal at uranium mill sites, and other impacts of the nuclear fuel cycle. Uranium Watch is encouraging and facilitating public participation in state and federal regulatory decision-making processes related to the uranium industry. The Uranium Watch Web Site was developed to provide citizens with news, information, and resources about current and historic uranium mining and milling activities and issues.

Despite dramatic changes in the energy-utility sector, regulators continue to review and control a wide range of utility activities, in an increasingly complex environment. Resource Insight brings to this arena considerable experience in cost-allocation and rate design, in the determination of the prudence of major investment decisions, and in crafting effective regulatory strategies.

Mining companies under encouragement by the South African Government now want to mine Uranium on a vast scale all around South Africa. 120 years of Uranium pollution due to Gold Mining Activities has never been cleaned up ... what will make this any different?

The Ottawa Coalition Against Mining Uranium (OCAMU) is an Ottawa-based community association. Our mission is as follows: We are a group of Ottawa citizens acting to ensure that Ottawa's water, air and surrounding ecosystem remain free of the byproducts of uranium mining. Uranium mining would poison these basic elements irreversibly. Our goal is to raise awareness and request a moratorium on uranium mineral prospecting, exploration, and mining in the Ottawa watershed. We call on our local political representatives to fulfill their responsibility of ensuring a healthy Ottawa.

Virginia alliance against uranium mining

Future generations of Virginians will be greatly affected by lawmakers' decisions about whether or not to allow uranium mining and milling in the Commonwealth. Relatively current information regarding potential risks and concerns about uranium mining and milling will be presented here in a respectful, professional and educational manner as to allow readers to form their own opinions.

Forty four Tallahassee Area Community property owners are slated as being the first population in the world to live within 500 feet of an active Uranium Mining program. The remainder of the community would be irreversibly, and irretrievably affected by a decision of our county to allow the mining project to move forward. The environment which we chose for our retirement years would be damaged and changed. We stand against the existence of an industrial mining operation in our agricultural/forestry neighborhood. We believe that people cannot live inside an active uranium mining area safely; the two functions cannot coexist in the same area, at the same time.

Information Network for Responsible Mining ("INFORM") is a nonprofit organization with the mission of educating the public about the dangers that exist when unsafe and irresponsible mining practices are permitted. Through the dissemination of information and education, INFORM helps organize residents in local communities most threatened by these practices to protect water quality, quality of life and the local economy.

HEAL has established itself as a leader in the struggle to make Utah's environment healthy and safe for all. We have grown from a small group of six people meeting around a table to the point that we now have thousands of supporters, hundreds of members, dozens of core volunteers, and five staff. Our successful campaign to get the importation of hotter radioactive wastes banned by a reluctant state legislature is proof that when citizens insist on open, inclusive, and accountable governance, they can be heard and heeded.
